Next generation blockchains like Sei Giga will create types of MEV that are completely new, and poorly understood. Today, we share the first ever paper exploring MEV in next-generation blockchains. With this we can protect users from this MEV, before they can be affected.

JUST IN: a16z report confirms Sei flipped Sui, Polygon and Aptos in active addresses for September 2025. Building on a strong Q3, growth on Sei has accelerated — DEX volume exceeding $10B LTM, 3 ETF filings, and tokenized funds from BlackRock, Apollo, and more now live on Sei.





HUGE news - the @Sei_Labs team was able to get a live demo in a Sei Giga internal devnet. Each bar on the left hand side of visual represents a block being proposed by a validator, showing Sei's multi proposer architecture in action. This milestone required building out support for many operational components, including RPC APIs, receipts support, and gas support.


Happy to share that the @Sei_Labs team was able to get 5 gigagas with a DECENTRALIZED validator set in an internal devnet. Internal goal was to achieve this by March 31, 2025. The team ended up getting it done by Feb 11. Absolutely insane 🤯 🤯 🤯 These tests were performed with 40 validator nodes spread out equally across Singapore, Germany, Oregon, and Ohio. Next milestone is to finish all of the remaining productionization work (archive nodes, RPCs, state sync, etc) before getting ready for a public devnet.

2024 has been the best year ever for @Sei_Labs Highlight of the year was shipping Sei v2 - the first parallelized EVM For 2025, I'm looking forward to 5 gigagas per second Here are some metrics from a barebones internal devnet 👀
