The OKX Jumpstart program continues to deliver high-potential blockchain projects to users worldwide, and SUI is no exception. As anticipation builds for the decentralized, high-performance SUI network, OKX has announced key updates regarding the SUI token allocation schedule, participation mechanics, and distribution timeline.

Participation Mechanics: How the Lottery Works
The Jumpstart lottery system ensures fair and transparent access to SUI tokens based on OKB holdings.
Subscription Period
- Start: April 23, 2025, 02:00 UTC
- End: April 24, 2025, 02:00 UTC
During this window, users can use OKB to purchase lottery tickets for a chance to win token allocations.
Lottery Ticket Allocation
Your number of eligible tickets is determined by your average OKB balance over the three days prior to subscription (April 20–22, 2025). Daily snapshots of your OKB balance across Funding, Trading, and Savings accounts are taken.
- 1 OKB = Up to 4 lottery tickets
- Balances are rounded down to the nearest whole number
Example Calculation:
If your daily OKB balances are:
- April 20: 1.5 OKB
- April 21: 4.7 OKB
- April 22: 10.9 OKB
Your average = (1.5 + 4.7 + 10.9) / 3 = 5.7 OKB → Rounded down to 5 OKB
Total tickets = 5 × 4 = 20 lottery tickets
Winning Tickets & Distribution
- Each winning ticket grants 100 SUI
- Maximum winning tickets per user: 100 (capping total allocation at 10,000 SUI)
- Unsuccessful tickets result in full OKB refund
- Winners and refunds are distributed on the same day as the lottery draw
Results will be published on the official Jumpstart event page.
SUI Token Vesting & Distribution Schedule
Due to the delayed mainnet launch, SUI tokens will not be distributed immediately after the sale.
Updated Distribution Timeline
- First Disbursement: Immediately after SUI mainnet launch
- Subsequent Releases: 1/13th of remaining tokens unlocked monthly for 12 months
- Automatic Crediting: All unlocked tokens are sent directly to users’ Funding Accounts
This gradual release model supports long-term network stability and discourages short-term sell-offs.
