    From the README

    Sui is a next-generation smart contract platform with high throughput, low latency, and an asset-oriented programming model powered by the Move programming language.

    Sui offers the following benefits and capabilities:

    Sui is the only blockchain today that can scale with the growth of web3 while achieving industry-leading performance, cost, programmability, and usability. As Sui approaches Mainnet launch, it will demonstrate capacity beyond the transaction processing capabilities of established systems – traditional and blockchain alike. Sui is the first internet-scale programmable blockchain platform, a foundational layer for web3.
