About

Mysten Labs builds Sui, a layer-1 blockchain, and Move, the native programming language for writing contracts on it. The stated mission is to make "web3 secure, reliable and ready for mass adoption," with the company describing its work as "building critical infrastructure to enable a more decentralized internet."

Around Sui sit Walrus, a decentralized storage and data availability protocol, and DeepBook, an on-chain order book for DeFi. Other protocols on the platform include Seal, Enoki, and Kiosk.
