Sei Network Transaction Surge and Alpha Launch: A Milestone in 2024 Growth
The number of transactions on the network increased significantly over this time period. Another notable increase in activity occurred from late May to early June, as the Sei v2 upgrade began its launch phase. During this time, daily transactions increased dramatically, peaking at 5 million.
From the beginning of the year to mid-March, there was a rise in a variety of measures, including the number of delegators, indicating a consistent increase in Sei Network uptake and utilization. This period of growth reflected users’ rising confidence and interest in the Sei ecosystem.
By the end of May, Sei Network had successfully entered Phase 2, known as the Alpha Launch, of the Sei v2 upgrade. This upgrade builds on the Sei Network’s existing capabilities while expanding its benefits to a larger worldwide network of EVM developers.
Sei v2 carefully blends the benefits of both Solana and Ethereum, providing a more robust and versatile platform for developers and users alike. Meanwhile, CNF reported that Sei Network’s Total Value Locked (TVL) increased by 229% following the Sei v2 upgrade in July, hitting $95.3 million.
This expansion was aided by DeFi projects such as Yei Finance and DragonSwap, which played critical roles in the early phases of Sei Network’s DeFi ecosystem.
In addition, Sei Network has launched the $50 million Japan Ecosystem Fund to improve gaming, social, and entertainment experiences in the Web3 sector on the Sei platform.
Furthermore, as CNF previously highlighted, Sei Network has teamed with Particle Network for the EVM-Cosmos Co-Testnet, demonstrating its dedication to blockchain innovation and collaboration.
The network’s introduction of Universal Accounts and Universal Gas has allowed for smooth cross-chain transactions and gas payments, greatly improving the user experience.
Amidst these events, Sei Network’s native token, SEI, has witnessed a significant increase in value. At the time of writing, SEI had increased by 7.95% over the last 24 hours, reaching $0.3085 with a daily trading volume of $72.68 million.
