- Sei is a public, permissionless Layer 1 blockchain built for trading and financial markets.
More detail
- It runs the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) with faster blocks and higher throughput than Ethereum, and targets order-book trading, stablecoins, tokenized assets and AI agent economies.

- EVM developers building high-frequency trading, order-book or payments applications that need sub-second blocks, and institutions or funds exploring onchain capital markets.
- Pricing
- Sei is open-source network infrastructure with no published subscription, seat or platform fee.

About
- Sei is a public, permissionless Layer 1 blockchain built for trading and financial markets.
- It runs the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) with faster blocks and higher throughput than Ethereum, and targets order-book trading, stablecoins, tokenized assets and AI agent economies.
What it helps with
- Ethereum's roughly 12-second blocks and congestion are replaced by about 400 ms blocks.
- Single-threaded EVM execution is addressed by parallel execution and the SeiDB state layer.
- High gas and latency for trading are reduced by claimed 100 MGas/s throughput.
- AI agents need custom glue code to transact onchain; an official MCP Server and sei-skill provide tooling.
- Stablecoin payroll and payments face days-long bank settlement; Toku's Sei-native payroll is cited as avoiding those del
Capabilities
A practical view of what is available and where limitations apply.
| Offering | Available | Detail |
|---|---|---|

| Finality | Yes | Sub-second finality on the current network; sub-250 ms ordering finality is on the Giga devnet. |
| Throughput | Limited | 100 MGas/s is current; 200K TPS is a roadmap target for the Autobahn public testnet, not a mainnet benchmark. |
| EVM compatibility | Yes | 100% Ethereum tooling compatible; EVM version described as 'Pectra (without blobs)'. |
| Parallel execution | Yes | Block-STM-style optimistic concurrency, per docs.sei.io/learn. |
| Consensus | Yes | Twin Turbo is current; Autobahn multi-proposer BFT is planned for Giga. |
| AI agent tooling | Yes | Official MCP Server and sei-skill let AI assistants query and transact on Sei. |
| MEV protection | Limited | 99.99% MEV reduction is described as a forthcoming Giga upgrade ('Coming soon to testnet'), not a current capability. |
| Privacy / confidential transactions | No | Privacy features are described as part of the forthcoming Sei Giga upgrade, not available today. |
| Non-EVM developer path | Unknown | No evidence of a supported non-EVM path on current product pages; whether CosmWasm remains supported is unknown. |
