Something feels different these days.
All around us, every ecosystem is losing momentum. They're infighting. Shrinking.
But within the Sei ecosystem, growth is exploding.
The only thing I can compare this to is 2023 Solana.
@Sei_Labs is shipping faster, on more fronts than at any point in our history.
As a technical founder, one of the first things I see is talent. Most teams are hemorrhaging talent right now. Some of the most skilled people in our industry are pivoting to AI, but each month the quality of talent we're attracting to @Sei_Labs is higher and higher.
That's a huge leading indicator.
The next is the tech, and the quality of the projects being built.
Call it what you want: neo-finance, open-finance, the future of France. The entire industry is converging towards internet native money, and Sei is the first place where it will be possible.
Bitcoin introduced cryptocurrency to the world, but it wasn't programmable. Ethereum introduced programmable money, but it couldn't scale. Solana scaled, but didn't have the robustness that traditional finance and enterprise needed.
The trustworthiness of Bitcoin. The power of Ethereum. The speed of Solana. Sei will be the blockchain to offer all of this. When the Giga upgrade launches, everything will only get better.
Right now, all the signs we see in the ecosystem point to something similar. @YeiFinance, @TakaraLend, @dragonswap_dex, @SailorFi and @monacotrading (soon going into private alpha) are exploding, leading the way to establish a thriving DeFi ecosystem.
What defined Solana's rise during the last bull market was speculation. Memecoins, gambling and hype.
@SeiNetwork's rise will be defined by fundamentals. Real adoption by institutions. Real distribution to billions of people worldwide.
Sei closed out December as a leading EVM chain by active addresses, capping a year of sustained growth.
EVM activity shows a growing trend: as markets increasingly move onchain, usage is concentrating around execution performance.

Sei was the first EVM blockchain with parallel execution.
Since then many others have followed, validating our approach.
Next up is MCP, or Multiple Concurrent Proposers. Sei Giga will be the first EVM chain with MCP.
Introducing the Sei Market Infrastructure Grid.
As enterprise adoption on Sei compounds, a structure has emerged: a coordinated market system of capital, distribution, and infrastructure that reinforce one another across the ecosystem.
This is the enterprise adoption flywheel.
