Sui Partners with Babylon Labs to Enable Bitcoin Native Staking
Babylon and Sui Deepen Technical Partnership, Taking Sui-Bitcoin Integration to New Heights.
Bitcoin collateralization protocol developer Babylon Labs and groundbreaking Layer1 public chain Sui (designed for scalability, security, and large-scale applications) today jointly announced that Sui will play a more significant role in Babylon's Bitcoin ecosystem. This upgrade is a further deepening of the integration since the two announced the integration of the Babylon Bitcoin collateralization protocol last year, with Sui formally becoming the Bitcoin Enhancement Network (BEN) on the Babylon protocol.
How Babylon's Bitcoin Collateralization Works on the Sui Network
Bitcoin holders can now, through the Babylon protocol, provide additional security to the Sui network while fully self-custodying their Bitcoin and simultaneously earn staking rewards. This mechanism allows Sui to leverage the collateralized Bitcoin to enhance network security, establish a convenient pathway for participants to enter the Sui ecosystem, and offer unprecedented opportunities for Bitcoin holders to participate in the DeFi space with higher security.
Fisher Yu, Chief Technology Officer of Babylon Labs, said:
"Babylon and Sui are jointly building a cross-chain utility to deepen technical infrastructure, creating more revenue opportunities for Bitcoin holders seeking a more secure DeFi entry point. As the foundational infrastructure layer for Bitcoin, Babylon safeguards the security of decentralized systems through a trustless, self-custody Bitcoin staking mechanism, unlocking Bitcoin's full utility potential. Through the Babylon Bitcoin collateralization protocol, Sui can access the world's largest and most decentralized secure network, opening up new opportunities for Bitcoin holders."
Evan Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Mysten Labs, the initial development team of Sui, said:
"Our continued cooperation with Babylon Labs aims to bring Bitcoin's core advantages—scalability, security, and liquidity—into the high-performance DeFi ecosystem. Through this integration, Sui further solidifies its position as the preferred DeFi platform for Bitcoin, enabling Bitcoin holders to more efficiently utilize this asset to create value."
Through integration with Babylon, Sui introduces a new economic paradigm: scalability supported by Bitcoin. The integrated infrastructure will expand Bitcoin's liquidity and security alongside the Sui network, unlocking new applications and decentralized services secured by Bitcoin.
This integration represents a broader transformation in the blockchain industry — $1.5 trillion worth of assets (Bitcoin) have been extended to secure and empower a fast, scalable, programmable blockchain ecosystem (such as Sui). For Bitcoin holders, the Babylon Protocol programmatically enables users to autonomously convert their held assets into a foundational income-generating asset, further extending Bitcoin's utility beyond a store of value and medium of exchange, making it a more active part of the broader digital economy.
About Babylon Labs
Babylon Labs focuses on the Bitcoin security sharing protocol, aiming to build a decentralized world secured by Bitcoin. Babylon Labs' latest development, the world's first global trustless, self-custodial Bitcoin staking protocol, allows holders to stake Bitcoin directly in PoS chains, Layer2 networks, and Data Availability (DA) layers of decentralized systems, earning staking rewards without relying on third-party custody, cross-chain bridges, or wrapping services. This innovation aims to combine Bitcoin's high security and widespread adoption with the efficient scalability of PoS systems, significantly expanding Bitcoin's utility value.

Foreign selling in the South Korean stock market accelerates, with cumulative net sales reportedly reaching $75 billion this year
On June 9, The Kobeissi Letter, citing Goldman Sachs data, reported that global investors are selling South Korean stocks at an unusually rapid pace. In the latest trading session, foreign investors sold about $801 million worth of Kospi constituent stocks again; total foreign outflows last week reached about $10 billion, and the market has been in net foreign selling on nearly every trading day over the past month. According to the data cited in the report, foreign investors have sold about $75 billion worth of South Korean stocks so far this year. Meanwhile, South Korean retail and institutional investors together recorded roughly $69 billion in net buying over the same period, suggesting that the market’s main buying support has come from domestic capital rather than returning overseas funds. The information currently disclosed still mainly comes from The Kobeissi Letter’s retelling and Goldman Sachs data summaries, while public details on the statistical period and the specific definition of “selling” remain relatively limited.

Scaling Crypto Derivatives: The Digital Asset Infrastructure Behind High-Volume Trading
In the fast-moving digital asset ecosystem, derivatives platforms face an extreme architectural test. High-leverage futures markets demand more than just standard security—they require absolute operational precision, zero-latency matching engines, and ironclad structural scalability, all while navigating intense market volatility.
As global platforms scale to meet these demands, the industry is shifting away from rigid, monolithic setups toward a more agile, "decoupled" infrastructure philosophy.
The Blueprint for High-Volume Copy TradingFor elite global exchanges like WEEX (founded in 2018), this architectural choice becomes critical when scaling high-volume retail features like social copy trading. When thousands of users automatically mirror the real-time strategies of elite traders simultaneously, it triggers sudden, monumental spikes in concurrent transactional volume.
To prevent execution latency or settlement bottlenecks during these peak volatility events, a platform's primary engine must remain entirely dedicated to risk management, copy-trade synchronization, and order matching.
The Architectural Rule: New-generation platforms must separate front-end user execution engines from heavy backend infrastructural overhead to eliminate operational friction.
By separating these layers, platforms can maintain complete sovereignty over their trading environments and user experiences while strategically aligning with institutional-grade infrastructure ecosystems. This strategic framework allows modern exchanges to leverage advanced Digital Asset Custody infrastructure such as Cobo’s behind the scenes, ensuring that backend wallet management scales elastically alongside trading spikes.
Capitalizing on Market Momentum and 400× LeverageIn a derivatives arena where platforms offer up to 400× leverage on perpetual contracts, capital efficiency and market agility are core business metrics. To capture market momentum, an exchange needs the ability to rapidly expand its asset offerings, supporting everything from legacy crypto assets to sudden, trending altcoins across a massive library of trading pairs.
Adopting a flexible, scalable Wallet-as-a-Service (WaaS) solution such as Cobo’s could completely rewrite the development timeline for high-growth exchanges. Instead of spending months of engineering capital building out custom backend wallet architectures for every new blockchain network, platforms can deploy localized infrastructure in days.
This agility allows platforms to instantly scale their listings to over a thousand trading pairs without compromising security or delaying time-to-market. It mirrors the exact operational advantages seen during high-velocity market events, similar to how advanced wallet infrastructure empowers platforms during sudden asset surges; allowing exchanges to pass that speed and liquidity directly to their global user base.
A Mature Foundation for GrowthThe synergy between trusted infrastructure ecosystems and global trading platforms represents the natural evolution of a maturing crypto market. As WEEX continues to scale its global spot and derivatives offerings for over 6 million users, adopting robust backend paradigms proves that platforms no longer have to compromise between cutting-edge trading velocity and uncompromised structural security.
