Cetus Protocol CETUS

What CETUS actually is on-chain

Cetus Protocol is a Move coin type deployed on Sui, at contract address 0x06864a6f921804860930db6ddbe2e16acdf8504495ea7481637a1c8b9a8fe54b::cetus::cetus. That address, not the ticker CETUS, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself CETUS, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against suiscan.xyz before sending funds or approving a spend.

Sui uses Move's object model, so CETUS is a typed coin object rather than a balance entry in a shared contract. The type string above is the full identifier — the module and struct name are part of it, which is why it looks longer than an EVM address. Liquidity is in Cetus and Turbos pools and gas is paid in SUI.

For CETUS the project publishes an active account as @cetusprotocol. That is a partial paper trail — enough to check claims against, not enough to audit. None of it is a quality judgement about the asset; it is simply what can be independently checked before the chart is worth looking at.

Where CETUS sits in the market

At #786, Cetus Protocol is in the top of the small-cap band. Books at this depth are thin enough that one sizeable market order can move the printed price by several percent and retrace within minutes, which is precisely why a single static price target makes a poor trigger — you want a condition that survives one wick. Availability is concentrated in a handful of venues and volume-based delisting is a live risk rather than a theoretical one.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 5 live CETUS order books (Binance, Bybit, OKX, Gate.io, HTX). That is wider coverage than most assets ranked near #786 carry, so a divergence on any one of them is far more likely to be a local liquidity event than a genuine repricing. None of the books we see for CETUS are regulated US or Korean venues, so this is an offshore-quoted asset — availability, and the price itself, depend on which jurisdiction you trade from.

CETUS against its all-time high

CETUS is more than 95% below its all-time high of $0.4877 (on 2024-11-10) — a 23.5x gap. At this point the record has essentially no analytical value: it belongs to a different supply structure, a different holder base and often a different market cycle. The useful reference for CETUS is the downside, not the peak, so the range section below matters more than this one. That high was set roughly 2 years ago, recently enough that it still anchors how most current holders frame the asset.

CETUS across its historical range

The recorded range runs 34.1x, from $0.0143 to $0.4877 — wide by the standards of traditional assets, moderate for this one's class.

CETUS is within 45.3% of its all-time low of $0.0143, printed on 2026-02-06. This is the part of a chart with no history: there is no prior trading below this level, so there is no support to reference, no volume shelf and no cost-basis cluster to lean on. Because that low is itself recent, the asset is in an active downtrend rather than sitting at an old floor — each new low invalidates the previous one as a reference.

CETUS supply and valuation data

Cetus Protocol sits just outside the band where circulating and total supply are independently verified, so we hold a valuation figure for CETUS but not an audited token count. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $39.4 million as of 2026-05-12. That places it in the top 10% by fully diluted value.

Because that valuation is a snapshot rather than a live figure, we deliberately do not back out a supply number from it — the price has moved since, and the division would produce a confident-looking token count that is simply wrong. Check the project's own explorer for the current supply before using any per-token valuation. The authoritative figure is the one suiscan.xyz reports for this contract.

What kind of asset CETUS is

Cetus Protocol is a decentralised exchange token. The economics are unusually legible for crypto: the protocol generates fees from trading volume, and the token's value proposition rests on whether it captures any of them. Volume on the underlying venue, the fee switch status and competitive pressure from other venues are the variables that actually matter — and DEX volume is itself highly cyclical, so revenue is not a stable base.

CoinGecko files CETUS under 7 categories, including Decentralized Exchange (DEX), Exchange-based Tokens, Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Sui Ecosystem, Animoca Brands Portfolio. CoinGecko also records deployments on Sui (92 tracked tokens), so its on-chain liquidity and its user base move with that network.
