How to get SUI Test Token : Step by Step Guide
Sui is a decentralized smart contract platform maintained by a permissionless group of validators, similar to those in other blockchain systems. It provides unparalleled low-latency and scalability for straightforward use cases, enabling most transactions to be processed in parallel. By better utilizing processing resources and allowing throughput increases through added resources, Sui achieves improved performance.
Sui utilizes a Byzantine consistent broadcast protocol among authorities to safeguard common asset operations, resulting in lower latency and improved scalability compared to Byzantine agreement. Sui's smart contract execution is parallelized when possible, and it supports both light clients, which can authenticate reads, and full clients, which can audit all transitions for integrity. This enables trust-minimized bridges to other blockchains.
The native asset, SUI, is used to pay for gas for all operations and allows owners to delegate stake to authorities for platform operation within epochs. Authorities are periodically reconfigured based on the stake delegated to them. Gas fees are distributed to authorities and their delegates in proportion to their stake and contribution to Sui's operation.
On March 29 2023, Sui's Permanent Testnet, a decentralized and permissionless environment, was launched and will continue running even after Mainnet launch.
