Published on 22 Apr 20236 min read

Dear OKX users,
The SUI token sale will take place on April 23 on OKX Jumpstart. OKB holders can use their OKB to obtain lottery tickets, and winning tickets will be able to purchase SUI. An additional Recognition Sale will be available for SUI ecosystem contributors. Due to a delay in the launch of the SUI mainnet, SUI tokens will be assigned after the launch, while other rules remain unchanged. The details are as follows:
US users are ineligible to participate


1. General Sale information

  1. General Sale allocation: 225,000,000 SUI
  2. SUI token sale price: 1 SUI = 0.1 USD
  3. Maximum individual purchase quantity: 10,000 SUI
  4. Payment currency: OKB
  5. Exchange rate: Determined by the price of OKB, which is calculated by taking daily snapshots of OKB's price at 16:00 UTC from April 15 to April 19.

An additional Recognition Sale will be available for Sui ecosystem contributors only. To participate in the Recognition Sale, users must have been officially allowlisted by the Sui Foundation.

2. Details

  1. Subscription period: 23 April 2023 02:00 UTC to 24 April 2023 02:00 UTC
  2. Lottery tickets: The number of tickets you can receive depends on the average amount of OKB held for the 3 days before the subscription date (April 20-22). This is calculated by taking a daily snapshot of your holdings for these 3 days. For each OKB token held, you can get up to 4 tickets. Winning tickets contain 100 SUI and for each losing ticket you purchase, your OKB will be refunded.
  3. Calculation of winning tickets: After the subscription period is over, internal systems will randomly determine which tickets are successful and unsuccessful. Winning tickets and refunded OKB will be distributed on the same day. For specific winning results, please refer to the details on the event page.
  4. Winning ticket quota: The number of winning tickets each user can receive is hard capped at 100 (10,000 SUI)
  5. SUI token assignment schedule: The awarded SUI tokens will be distributed over a 12-month period. After confirming the number of winning tickets, users will receive the first batch of SUI tokens once the mainnet launches, and an additional 1/13 can be unlocked on the same day each month. Unlocked SUI tokens will be automatically released into users' Funding accounts. Please follow the event page details for specific assignment schedule.

3. Rules for participation

  1. Users must complete KYC2 verification to be eligible.
  2. Participants must use their main OKX account — sub-accounts are forbidden.
  3. Users can only participate in the lottery through the OKX app.
  4. Certain countries and regions are unable to participate in this activity. See Notes for details

4. How you can participate
Step 1: maximize your OKB holdings

  1. From April 20-22, 2023, a daily snapshot of your OKB holdings will be captured across your OKX Funding account, Trading account, and Earn account.
  2. For every 1 OKB you hold, you can obtain 4 tickets.
  3. The amount of OKB you hold will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

OKB holdings snapshots explained: If your OKB snapshots are 1.5 OKB, 4.7 OKB, and 10.9 OKB across the 3 days before subscription day, your average holdings will be 5.7 OKB ([1.5 + 4.7 + 10.9]/3), and the corresponding number of tickets will be (5 * 4) = 20

Step 2: subscribe to the lottery

  1. After opening the Subscription page, select "Subscribe Now" and enter the number of tickets you'd like to purchase.
  2. Use OKB to pay for the tickets.

Step 3: Collect your winnings
After the subscription window is over, the system will conduct a random lottery and distribute the winning tickets to participants on the same day. For specific winning results, you can refer to the details on the event page. Your new SUI will be distributed to your Funding account in batches, and the remaining OKB (from losing tickets) will be returned to your Funding account the same day.
