Early Sui Name Service supporters are waking up to a fresh surprise as the network’s core identity project rewards its most engaged members.

Summary

SuiNS distributed 7.6 M $NS tokens to 95K early DAO voters.
Rewards were issued as staked tokens with added voting power.
The airdrop reinforces SuiNS’s role in building onchain identity.

Early contributors to Sui Name Service are receiving a major governance boost through a newly launched retroactive airdrop.

The update was announced by Sui Name Service in a statement published on Oct. 31, 2025.

Airdrop rewards over 95,000 early voters

The decentralized naming protocol built on the Sui (SUI) blockchain has distributed about 7.6 million NS tokens to more than 95,000 eligible addresses. The rewards, equal to the combined pools of the last five governance proposals, were sent as staked tokens, granting recipients enhanced voting power from the moment they were received.

The program rewards community members who took part in SuiNS DAO proposals from November 2024 to June 2025. Allocation was determined by the number of participants, consistency, and the date of a voter’s earliest proposal. The earlier and more consistently a member voted, the greater their governance weight.

Unlike most airdrops, there’s no claim or transaction step required. Tokens are already visible on the SuiNS voting portal at vote.suins.io, removing gas costs and phishing risks entirely.

Strengthening identity and governance on Sui

Launched in 2024, Sui Name Service links wallet addresses to social identity and governance by converting them into human-readable “.sui” domains. It has developed into a key identity layer that powers DAO voting, organisation pages, and decentralised profiles.

Staking incentives, sub-name communities, and integrations with SuiPlay and Cetus (CETUS) decentralized exchange are some of the platform’s recent updates. Additionally, holders are eligible to participate in future identity-based reward programs and discounted premium domain auctions.

SuiNS said the new airdrop is “just the beginning” of a broader effort to connect onchain identity with governance and reputation, laying the groundwork for a community-driven digital identity framework across the Sui network.
