Sei Showcase

Highlighting some of the biggest developments at Sei. 

💨 What’s happening: With its latest integrations and metric milestones, Sei continues its push to become more aligned with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). 

💨 Why it matters: Since Sei Labs’ first Sei Improvement Proposal (SIP) to transform the network’s architecture to an EVM-only model was passed, the network has made continuous developments to aid its shift towards greater EVM compatibility.

Seiscan, a dedicated block explorer for Ethereum and other EVM-compatible chains, provides Sei developers and users access to comprehensive transaction data, analytics and API services. Prior to Seiscan, developers and users had to resort to tools like Seistream and Seitrace, which lacked brand alignment and features. With Etherscan's involvement, Seiscan enhances interoperability and familiarity for Ethereum-native users.

Recent metrics also highlight this expansion: daily transactions on the Sei EVM rose 57% on the month to 2.2 million, while daily active users increased 59% on the month to 939,000. These numbers, alongside Sei’s capabilties, underscore the network’s growth across the broader Ethereum ecosystem, positioning it as an attractive alternative for decentralized applications.

💨 The bigger picture: Sei's alignment with the EVM offers developers and users a familiar and robust infrastructure that’s similar to Ethereum's mainnet. 

As the most widely adopted blockchain platform by TVL and core developers, Ethereum has cultivated a mature ecosystem with extensive tooling and token standards. Sei’s focus to become more compatible with EVM has the potential to attract new developers who may have only worked on Ethereum before, lowering barriers to entry and accelerating the development of decentralized applications on Sei's network.
