Welcome to the sixth edition of the Sui Developer Newsletter!
Sui Basecamp, Sui's flagship conference, was a huge success. Find all the excellent talks in this YouTube playlist. We also highlight and link to the dev-related sessions below.
Sui Overflow, our first global virtual hackathon, is open for project submissions for the next 23 days! Over 900 Builders and devs from around the world have signed up so far, and we have over 1200 members in our dedicated Discord server engaging in daily discussions on all things Sui, Move, and the hackathon.
Do you want to showcase your tool, SDK, or other artifact that might be useful for developers building on Sui? We now accept submissions from the community through the GitHub repository. Check out the repository to find more information.
As always, we're eager for your feedback on what you'd like to see in the newsletter—tag @SuiNetwork on X (Twitter), join our Discord community, or post on the developer forums.

Development & Ecosystem
Development Experience on Sui
Two new features in the Sui CLI:
--dry-run is now available for all relevant commands.
--gas-budget is now optional for all relevant commands. If the gas-budget is not passed, the CLI will first do a dry run to estimate the gas budget.
A new version of the Sui GraphQL RPC will be released this week, which will bring among other things multiple version support. Check out this post to learn more.
Blockvision has built a code decompiler that allows to see the source code of a Move package on the SuiVision explorer. Read this post for more information.
A new consumer-facing brand experience for zkSend, called Stashed, is launching tomorrow. The zkSend SDK will continue as a tool for developers to integrate into their apps and experiences. Mysten strongly recommends that builders update their user interface to reflect the Stashed branding to avoid confusion. Builders can do this after zkSend.com begins redirecting to getstashed.com on Thursday, May 9, 15:00 Pacific Time. Existing zkSend SDK usage will not be broken, but clients are recommended to upgrade to take advantage of new features and user experience. For more information, see the transition FAQ.

Spotlight on Sui Overflow title sponsor: dWallet Network
Unleashing the Power of Multi-Chain Interoperability
dWallet Network is a modular signature network that brings direct access to native liquidity from all of web3 on Sui — no bridging, no wrapping.
Sui devs can leverage dWallets, a new blockchain primitive that lives on the dWallet Network (you can read more about it here). dWallets are a signing mechanism that allows DeFi protocols, Custody solutions and other Web3 projects to natively sign transactions on any blockchain, removing the need for bridges and wrapped assets.
Strategic Partnership with Mysten Labs
In a significant development, dWallet Network has partnered with Mysten Labs to enable developers working on the Sui blockchain to directly access native assets and liquidity from the entire Web3 world. To further this collaboration, dWallet Network is co-hosting Sui Overflow hackathon, find more about it here.
