Repost the original title “Ecological airdrop, stablecoin issuance, self-issuance of coins… Inventory of the “scheming operations” of the Sui game console”

SuiPlay0X1 is a Web3 game console created by Sui in collaboration with Playtron (a developer of game console operating systems), supporting traditional platform games such as Steam and Epic, and can be switched to Sui chain game mode with one click; pre-sale devices are bound with ‘Eternal’ soul-bound NFT, divided into ‘Mythic’ (first 1,700 pieces) and ‘Exalted’ tiers, holders of NFTs of different levels enjoy airdrops and whitelist qualifications from multiple project parties.

(For detailed game console parameters, please refer to:Is it worth buying the SuiPlay handheld game console at a price of 599u?)

SuiPlay0X1 was launched for pre-sale in early September last year, and officially sold out 10,000 units by the end of April this year. At SuiBaseCamp 2025 held in Dubai in May this year, SuiPlay0X1 was officially showcased in real life, and it was announced that deliveries will begin this summer.

Ecological Airdrop

From the presale to the final sell-out, there is no shortage of continuous ecological airdrop news behind the scenes. What ecological airdrops did SuiPlay receive?

First of all, it should be noted that pre-order users of the game console receive the ‘Eternal’ NFT bound with their Sui address generated through their Playtron account, and the ecological airdrop is also received by this address. Playtron currently hosts this address, and the community speculates that the device will be shipped or transferred to self-hosting by users after delivery.

I am one of the first 1,700 pre-purchasers, holding the ‘Myth’ NFT, and received the following tokens in this Sui address: including Sui ecosystem Perp DEX Bluefin token BLUE, lending protocol Scallop token SCA, Meme coin HIPPO, etc., with a total value of about $70.

In addition to the 8 authenticated tokens shown in the above figure, SuiPlay NFT holders also received over 40 tokens that are not authenticated by block browsers (mostly Meme). Some tokens airdrop not covering all NFT holders but are randomly selected, such as Sui Name Service randomly airdropped 500 out of 1000 NS tokens to ‘Myth’ NFT holders (currently valued at around $260).

At the same time, some tokens are airdropped in the form of NFTs, which require subsequent claims. For example, the author received 113 Walrus tokens WAL as NFTs, worth over 70 US dollars, which can be claimed. Another project using the same method for airdrop is Double Up (token UP) in the entertainment project on Sui.

In addition, some projects have made airdrop commitments early, but the specific airdrop will wait until the project goes online / SuiPlay devices are shipped, such as Fud the Pug, one of the top Meme coins in the Sui ecosystem.

G Dollar stablecoin

On May 2, 2025, Sui, Playtron, and the M0 (Stablecoin Infrastructure Provider) Foundation launched the G Dollar, a programmable stablecoin for gaming scenarios, at SuiBaseCamp. The coin is pegged to the U.S. dollar, backed by U.S. short-term treasuries, and can be used for consumption, subscriptions, and rewards on handheld consoles and other GameOS platforms. Its programmable features support fee reductions, instant withdrawals, and new revenue models.

Why do Sui and Playtron want to do stablecoins? The official gave three answers:

• Innovative economic model: programmable stablecoins and on-chain reward mechanisms empower developers to innovate new sources of income, bridging the flow of assets inside and outside the game.
• Upgrade player incentives: Attract more players and Web2 game developers to join the Sui ecosystem through multi-level incentives and direct airdrops, boosting user growth.
• Synergistic ecosystem effect: The joint airdrop of multiple projects and the compatibility strategy of the G Dollar wallet help integrate on-chain games and cross-platform linkage, further enhancing Sui’s competitiveness as the underlying chain for games.

Directly participating in the issuance of stablecoins in the ecosystem, it is evident that Sui is fully committed to the gaming track.

PLAY token?

Playtron is rumored to be planning to issue PLAY tokens, which may be airdropped to handheld users. In comparison, this is equivalent to Solana launching Saga tokens exclusively for mobile phones, which has no precedent in the industry yet.

However, Playtron has not yet announced detailed release plans and token economic models officially, just ‘hinting’ on social accounts. If the PLAY token is eventually confirmed, it may further leverage token to activate the gameplay at the ecological economic layer, enhancing user stickiness.

Conclusion

SuiPlay0X1 combines the gameplay of soul-bound NFT and multi-project airdrops, replicating the ‘wealth effect’ path of Solana Saga on mobile, with a micro-innovation of NFT grading; the launch of G Dollar fills the pain point of game asset settlement; overall, SuiPlay’s ‘sophisticated operations’ are advancing in hardware, tokens, and stablecoins, bringing benefits to early users and building a more complete economic and financial foundation for the Sui game ecosystem. The subsequent execution effects are expected to further test its sustainability and attractiveness.
