## TLDR

- Sui is a smart contracts platform that's specifically designed to provide e**xtremely high throughput, low latency** and to be **horizontally scalable** to handle the increase in demand. 

- Sui uses the **Move** programming language instead of Solidity.

- Sui has a native token called **SUI**, with a fixed supply. SUI will be used to pay for gas or staked with validators. 

- Sui is able to scale horizontally with no limits to meet user demand while maintaining low transaction costs. It achieves this by **only using global consensus for transactions that affect shared state.**

- Sui takes a significant leap in scalability by enabling **parallel agreement on causally independent transactions.** Sui validators commit such
