You might not be bullish enough on how far Sei’s come in just six months (Q2–Q3).
They basically rewired themselves from a high-speed L1 into a full-blown institutional settlement layer.
– TVL up from $360M → $600M+ ATH, with efficiency 16x higher than most DeFi networks.
– Daily txs exploded from 700K → 5.7M, topping the EVM leaderboard.
– Unique wallets jumped 668% to 70M+, and DEXs cleared $3.5B in Q3 volume.
– $38B in perpetual trading, 13.5M active wallets, and stablecoin flows above $5.5B daily.
But metrics are just the surface, partnerships are turning Sei into a TradFi gateway:
– Apollo ($840B AUM) tokenized its private credit fund via Securitize
– Ondo Finance launched USDY treasuries on Sei
– Chainlink brought real-time U.S. GDP and PCE data on-chain
– KAIO onboarded BlackRock, Brevan Howard, and Hamilton Lane funds
– Morpho integrated lending vaults for these tokenized assets
– Custody added regulated cold storage for $SEI
– Wyoming’s state stablecoin pilot (WYST) picked Sei as the rail
That’s over $1T+ in institutional funds now sitting on infrastructure that actually clears with sub-second finality.
And the chain’s upgrading fast enough to match that vision.
The Giga upgrade pushed throughput to 200K TPS, sub-400ms finality, and full parallelized EVM.
Add SIP-03’s EVM-only focus, Chainlink Data Streams, and the new Morpho + KAIO + Securitize composability…
→ It’s starting to look like regulated DeFi finally has its home base.
All that happened while $SEI’s mcap sat around $1.1B. When you’ve got billions in real-world funds, institutional custody, and sub-second rails all in one stack 👀
Everything’s starting to settle on Sei.
