Sei Showcase
Highlighting some of the biggest announcements from Sei.
💨 What’s happening: Sei may be a blockchain built for speed, but it’s scaling at the forefront of real-world assets (RWAs) and tokenization as institutions and new entrants eye the space.
Despite these categories gaining mind share across the sector, there’s room for it to ramp up even more within areas like borrowing and lending, Sei Development Foundation Strategic Advisor Jamie Finn said on Sei’s Q3 Webinar with Token Relations.
💨 Why it matters: The tokenization of RWAs and bringing familiar financial tools onchain opens the door to a whole new class of investors as well as opportunities beyond ones that require high amounts of capital. While these types of markets may have lower liquidity, given the lower capital constraints, it also provides new avenues for innovation.
“It’s about democratization because users are getting access to products they couldn’t get access to before, as well as new functionalities that were only available to the ultra high-net-worth individuals,” Finn said. “For example, being able to borrow or lend against positions without needing $50 million becomes possible with only $500 because of blockchain technology.”
In addition, Sei's strategic integration of stablecoins like USDC to provide the liquidity for RWAsand payment systems enable scalable, accessible solutions for both individual and business users. "Alongside things like RWAs, peer-to-peer and B2B payments need deep liquidity,” Sei Development Foundation Executive Director Justin Barlow said. “So having native USDC and CCCP on Sei make a massive difference for how accessible and realistic it is for users to use these products at scale."
“ USDC for institutions in the US has become the default stablecoin and in tandem with CCTP v2,” Barlow said. “It provides users on any chain to move assets in massive size and so far we’ve seen 175 million in USDC that have been minted natively on the [Sei] chain.”
With Sei’s stablecoin market cap reaching nearly $300 million in the last quarter, it shows there is demand (and the supply) for these digital assets. As more institutions enter the space and stablecoins dominate mind share for crypto, Sei is looking to position itself as the hub for liquidity by aggregating capital across chains.
💨 The bigger picture: Sei's advancements in stablecoin integration is reflective of a broader shift in global financial ecosystems. By enabling scalable trading of tokenized assets that leverages stablecoins like USDC, Sei aligns itself with the growing demand for digital asset markets that rival traditional exchanges in speed and cost. This is because institutions, users and enterprises see stablecoins as a safer way to enter crypto markets.
“It’s all about minimum risk and a key quality for stablecoin is that it's a fundamental enabler,” Finn said.
Looking ahead, as Sei continues its stablecoin and RWA development, prioritizing composability to deliver clear functionality to meet users where they are is important to the network. “It’s really about bringing quality products onchain in an environment that's fast, easy to use and integrated with infrastructure that brings new functionality and usability,” Finn said. “[Sei] is gonna bring products to where people are so that they can use it.”
