What is Driving the Cetus Price Increase?

Cetus Protocol describes itself as a decentralized exchange (DEX), leveraging the growing Sui blockchain (SUI). The Sui has been one of the strongest-performing chains in the crypto market in recent weeks, contributing to the rising interest in projects built on its network.

On Sept. 23, Cetus launched a “Meme Season” campaign aimed at showcasing meme coins within the Sui ecosystem. Each week, the protocol will highlight the most active pools featuring Sui or CETUS trading pairs. The winners will receive additional rewards, including bonuses for mining activities.

This initiative, which ends on Oct. 7, has likely contributed to increased trading volumes and the price rally.

Cetus’ Total Value Locked (TVL) Sees Strong Growth

According to DeFiLlama, the Cetus Protocol ranks among the top 10 chains in the DeFi category for decentralized exchanges, currently holding 18th place with a Total Value Locked (TVL) of $165.99 million.

Additionally, the Cetus’ TVL has surged by 69.89% in a month—one of the best growth performances in its category. In comparison, the leading DEX Uniswap (UNI) showed a modest 7.44% TVL increase over the same period.

Another noteworthy protocol is Aerodrome Finance (AERO), a DEX built on the Base blockchain. Over the past 30 days, the AERO’s TVL has jumped by 87.47%, outpacing Cetus. We previously reported on several wallets that have accumulated millions of AERO in just six months.
