Key takeaways

  • Suiet is ending wallet development and maintenance. Its notice says API services will run through November 14, 2026, then be discontinued; it asks users to complete their transition before November 14.
  • The wallet's closure does not delete assets from Sui. But Suiet says the app may become unreliable for viewing balances, sending transactions and connecting to applications after its services end.
  • Back up every account separately where necessary. Use a compatible wallet's verified import flow, and check both the address and asset access before removing Suiet or clearing its data.
  • Suiet says it has no mobile apps. Never put your recovery phrase into a migration website or give it to support; use only a verified wallet application's recovery process.

If you use Suiet, the Sui wallet, check your backups and arrange another way into every account now. The team says its supporting API services will operate through November 14, 2026, then end. The shutdown does not erase your on-chain assets, but an installed wallet alone is not a reliable backup.

What is ending, and when

The official Suiet notice (opens in a new tab) says development and maintenance are ending. Its API services, the connections the wallet relies on to perform tasks, will be maintained through November 14. After that, Suiet warns that balances may not display reliably, transfers may fail, and connections to applications may stop working.

There are two pieces to its timing: service maintenance continues through November 14, but the team asks users to back up and transition before November 14. The notice does not specify a shutdown hour or time zone. Do not turn it into a precise last-minute countdown.

Cointelegraph reported the closure on November 11 (opens in a new tab). This article focuses on the practical deadline and the team's account-access instructions, rather than treating one wallet's exit as a prediction about SUI's price or the network's future.

Your assets and the wallet are different things

Suiet is self-custodial: the account's recovery information is what lets its owner regain control. The team says the assets remain on the Sui blockchain when the wallet stops operating. Changing the app used to reach an existing account is not, by itself, a blockchain transfer.

That does not mean there is nothing to do. If your only usable copy of an account's recovery information is inside an installation you later delete, the fact that assets remain on-chain will not restore your access. See our recovery-phrase guide before changing or discarding a wallet.

The transition checklist

  1. List every account you use. Suiet says accounts imported individually may need individual backups. Do not assume that saving one phrase covers all addresses visible in the app.
  2. Secure the right recovery information. Follow the verified wallet's account-export guidance and keep each phrase or private key private. Never send it to a helper, a support chat or a migration form.
  3. Choose a compatible Sui wallet. Use its genuine application and official account-import process. The Sui wallet guide (opens in a new tab) is background on the ecosystem, not a guarantee that every app supports every account type or asset.
  4. Check the result. For an imported existing account, the address must match. Suiet also asks users to check their assets, staking positions and holdings inside applications. Seeing a familiar token ticker alone is not enough.
  5. Keep Suiet until access is verified. Only remove the extension or clear its stored data after confirming access through the replacement. Keep the independent backup as well.

Importing and transferring are not the same

Suiet describes two routes. You can restore an existing account in a wallet that supports it, or create a separate account and transfer assets that can be moved. The first route preserves the account address; the second sends assets to another address and involves ordinary network fees and any restrictions imposed by the asset or application.

Do not assume an active staking position or assets deposited in an application can be sent like a loose token. Suiet specifically tells users to review those positions. Our safe-transfer guide explains address and network checks if you use the transfer route.

What this means for you

The notice addresses Suiet users, including US readers who use the wallet; it does not announce a new US-only service or a shutdown of Sui. The durable lesson is that self-custody still needs an access plan when an application closes. Know which accounts your backups actually restore, and verify the replacement before removing the original.

This is a wallet-access notice checked on November 12, 2026, not a recommendation to buy, sell or move into SUI.

Frequently asked questions

Will my SUI disappear after November 14?

Suiet says closing its wallet does not remove or move assets from Sui. The risk is losing a usable interface or the recovery information needed to access an account, not an automatic deletion of coins on the deadline.

Do I have to transfer everything to a new address?

Not necessarily. Suiet describes importing an existing account into a compatible Sui wallet, which does not itself transfer assets. A separate option is a new wallet address and an on-chain transfer, with fees and any asset or protocol restrictions.

Is one recovery phrase enough for every Suiet account?

Do not assume so. Suiet says separately imported accounts can need their own backups. Inventory each account and confirm access in the replacement wallet before removing the old installation.

Is there an official Suiet mobile app for migration?

Suiet's shutdown notice says it has no mobile apps. A message advertising a Suiet mobile migration app should not be trusted on its name alone; never give its sender your phrase or private key.
