Sui says the third cohort of its Hydropower Fellowship has been completed, with six early-stage teams building across RWA infrastructure, agentic finance and AI tools. The official update positions the program as a builder pipeline for the ecosystem.
According to the Sui Network’s official post, the cohort focused on infrastructure and application layers that could expand what developers can build on the Layer 1. The projects were described as working in areas including real-world asset infrastructure, agentic finance and AI for social media, with participants saying Sui’s infrastructure enables capabilities they see as difficult to replicate elsewhere.
The fellowship fits a familiar model in crypto ecosystems: a grant-style program designed to attract developers, seed tooling and keep new teams inside the network’s orbit. In practical terms, that means the control point remains upstream with the protocol and its ecosystem programs, which can shape where builders concentrate attention, capital and technical momentum.
Six early-stage teams just completed the third cohort of the Sui Hydropower Fellowship, building across verticals from agentic finance to RWA infrastructure to AI for social media.
They all share one belief: Sui's infra makes things possible that aren’t possible elsewhere.

The Cohort Members
The cohort will consist of six early-stage projects that build on the SUI ecosystem. They are: Asseto, a leading RWA tokenization infrastructure provider; Audric, making crypto-native finance feel like ‘texting’; GEN, an autonomous social media agent that grows your brand on autopilot; Kash, a social-first prediction market that meets users where they already are – turning your social feed into a prediction feed; Predikt, rethinking what prediction market positions can be; and Transact.sh is building the financial infrastructure layer for AI agents.
For Sui, the broader significance is structural. Fellowship programs do not prove decentralization on their own, but they do help determine where developer access, tooling and future applications are likely to accumulate. The latest cohort suggests Sui is continuing to invest in that pipeline.
