Layer-1 Blockchain SUI is increasing the real-world user base in Asia. On Thursday, the company announced two new strategic partnerships with companies focusing on real-world applications.
Human Longevity Protocol Cudis said it will expand its platform to the SUI blockchain to drive wider adoption. Additionally, Korean table ordering company T’Order has announced a strategic partnership with SUI. They work together to commercialize Stablecoin-based payment infrastructure.
The appeal of SUI for a health and wellness platform
The global digital healthcare market is projected to grow from $399 billion in 2023 to $590 billion by 2027, but some challenges remain unresolved. These include lack of ownership of data, poor interoperability of systems, and value monopolies by intermediaries.

Cudis is an all-in-one platform that integrates wearable technology, AI-based health analytics, and blockchain data management. The concept is to reward users with cryptocurrency for healthy behavior. “AI Smart Ring” tracks actions such as sleeping and improving to achieve this.
Cudis, originally built on the Solana blockchain, decided to extend it as a Layer 1 blockchain based on the capabilities of SUI, and by considering the unique capabilities of applications within the SUI ecosystem. Personal health data collected by Smart Ring is privacy sensitive. Therefore, it handles the secure handling of this information well and uses applications such as seal suits properly.
Cudis explained that the SUI stack enhances the performance and functionality of the platform. They determined that applications such as walruses and seals would help to handle this information safely.
The SUI stack is a blockchain technology stack that integrates core blockchain ecosystem functions into an integrated architecture. This includes execution, consensus, storage, networking, user experience (UX), developer tools (DX), and maximum extractable value (MEV) handling.
Payment for T’Order and Stablecoin
SUI has also announced a partnership with T’Order, a Korean table ordering company. T’Order will use SUI blockchain and a decentralized data solution called Walrus.
The goal is to manage transactions and customer membership data. It will also be integrated with the South Korean winning stubcoin, which will soon be released on the SUI blockchain.
“As stubcoin and cryptocurrency payments rapidly become mainstream, we are at the forefront of this trend,” said Christian Thompson, managing director of the SUI Foundation. He added that he is pleased that the SUI Foundation has an innovative partner T’Order in this position.
Thompson said the integration will create opportunities for South Korea’s $140 billion dining industry, significantly improving the experience for millions of South Korean consumers.
