According to Patrick Bush, senior investment analyst at VanEck, Sui (SUI) and Aptos (APT) have the potential to see significant price growth by the end of 2025. Both cryptocurrencies, based on Meta's Diem project, are expected to benefit from increasing adoption, network growth, and improving market sentiment. Despite not reaching the level of Ethereum (ETH) or Solana (SOL) in terms of developer or cultural adoption, Sui may offer attractive technical capabilities and economics that could appeal to market makers. Sui and Aptos currently have a smaller presence among active crypto developers compared to Ethereum and Solana, but Sui has shown higher retail interest in recent months. Sui stands out in terms of trading efficiency with its programmable transaction blocks, but both networks face hurdles and have not yet achieved a truly differentiated and successful application. The token models for Sui and Aptos differ, with Sui having a capped token supply and Aptos having an inflationary system. Both networks will also face significant token unlocks in the future, which could impact their prices. VanEck projects that Sui and Aptos will capture a larger share of the smart contract platform market, with a total market capitalization of $1.1 trillion by the end of 2025. Based on past trends and the U.S. money supply, Bush estimates that Sui could reach a market cap of $61 billion, with a token price of around $16. Aptos is expected to reach a market cap of $11 billion, with a token price of $22.
