Suiet, a self-custodial browser wallet for the Sui blockchain, will stop running its API services after 14 November, its team said in a notice on the Suiet website. Development and maintenance of the wallet have ended. The Chrome Web Store extension “will also be sunset soon”, and Suiet has never had a mobile app.
The notice went up earlier this month and drew wider coverage this week, when Cointelegraph and PANews reported it. That leaves users two days.
A wallet’s API is the server that feeds the app balances, sends transactions to the network and connects it to apps. The coins sit on Sui itself.
Suiet says ending the service “will not move or delete” assets. But once the API is offline, the wallet “may no longer reliably display balances, send transactions, or connect to applications.”
So nothing is lost on 15 November if you hold your recovery phrase or private key. If you do not, the extension could become your only, unreliable, door to those accounts.
What to do before 14 November
Suiet’s notice lists three steps:
- Back up every account. Write down the recovery phrase, or export the private key, of each account. Accounts you imported separately may need their own backup. If the terms are new, here is what a private key is.
- Restore in another Sui wallet. Use that wallet’s official import option, or create a new wallet and send your coins to it. Restoring moves nothing on-chain; a transfer costs normal network fees.
- Check before you delete. Confirm the restored address matches and that your assets are visible, including staking positions and anything held inside apps. Only then remove Suiet.
Shutdowns attract scammers. Suiet’s notice says not to share a recovery phrase with anybody, even someone who says they represent Suiet.
Type it only into a wallet’s own import screen, never into a website or a support chat. Fake “migration” tools are a common trap; we flagged a fake app that asked for seed phrases last month.
A quieter Sui
Suiet is not the only exit. Suiball, a Sui hardware wallet project, announced its closure on 10 November, and Phantom ended Sui support in September, Cointelegraph reported.
Sui’s DeFi apps held roughly $413 million on Wednesday, a fall of over 22% in a month, according to DefiLlama data cited by the outlet. Token Terminal data showed about 128,000 daily active users in October, against 601,000 a year earlier.
Suiet did not give a reason for closing in its notice. Its API stops after Friday, 14 November.
