What is Slush wallet and how does it work?

Slush wallet is the main wallet for Sui, made by Mysten Labs. It holds SUI and other Sui tokens and NFTs, and lets you stake, swap and connect to Sui apps. It launched in April 2025 as the successor to two earlier Mysten Labs products, Sui Wallet and Stashed.

Is Slush the same as Sui Wallet?

Yes, in practice. Mysten Labs announced on April 24, 2025, that Sui Wallet and Stashed were merging into Slush. Sui Wallet users received Slush as an ordinary update to the app or extension they already had, with no new download or migration. Their accounts, recovery phrases and addresses did not change. Stashed users can reach their Stashed address in Slush too.

Mysten Labs warned at launch to avoid unfamiliar download links or apps claiming to be Slush, since official updates come only through its own channels. On the Apple App Store, the seller is listed as Mysten Labs Inc.

How does the Sui wallet extension and app work?

As of November 2026, Slush comes in four forms: a browser extension (Chrome, Brave, Arc and Firefox, per the Sui blog), iOS and Android apps, and a web app at slush.app. The Sui blog says your address is the same across all of them.

Inside the wallet you can:

• Send and receive SUI, other tokens and NFTs.
• Stake SUI with validators and swap tokens in the app.
• Open Sui apps through a built-in browser on mobile, or connect through the extension on desktop.
• Use Slush Links, which send tokens or NFTs through a shareable link or QR code. The recipient does not need a wallet address first.

The Sui blog also mentions a Slush Card in development, with a waitlist.

How do Slush accounts and logins work?

Slush offers two account types, and one wallet can hold both.

Social login uses zkLogin, a Sui feature that derives a wallet address from a Google, Apple, Facebook or Twitch login. There is no recovery phrase to write down. The Sui docs suggest this for newcomers. The trade-off is that access depends on that login account staying secure and available.

Recovery phrase accounts are standard self-custody accounts. The private key is stored on your device, and you are responsible for backing up the phrase. The Sui docs suggest this for people who want full, independent control of their keys. Losing the phrase means losing access, as explained in what happens if you lose your seed phrase.

The Sui blog suggests keeping more than one account, such as an everyday account plus a separate one, often on a hardware wallet, for long-term holdings. It also notes that an older Sui wallet, Ethos, shut down its Sui products on November 1, 2024, and that Ethos recovery phrases can be imported into a current wallet.
