"Among the Thousands of Chains, Why Has @SeiNetwork Become the Top Trend Public Chain with the Most 'Market Thinking' in 2025?"

In the world of Web3, public chains are as numerous as fish in the river, with thousands running at their peak.

However, after the淘沙 (refining process), we find that the essence of public chains is actually identical to large shopping malls in real life.

1️⃣ Top-tier "Mall Background": Strong financial resources are the foundation of confidence
Whether a mall can succeed first depends on whether its developer has money. Without sufficient cash flow, the mall cannot maintain itself, let alone provide rent reductions and subsidies to tenants during winter.

#Sei is undoubtedly one of the most "wealthy" public chains in the current circle.

• Financing dimension: Behind Sei are top predators like Multicoin Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Jump Capital.

• Funding scale: From seed rounds to Series A, plus ecosystem funds, Sei has raised over $85 million in total. Between 2024 and 2025, the Sei Foundation even allocated over ten million dollars to establish a Creator Fund and various Grants.

• Core value: This means that while other public chains halt due to inability to pay wages, Sei has enough ammunition to support technological upgrades (such as V2 upgrade) and global ecosystem roadshows. Money means higher tolerance for errors and long-term certainty.

2️⃣ "Market Thinking": Serve merchants (developers) well, then users will come
Many public chains fail because they only focus on the small amount of money users hold, neglecting who is providing value to the users.

Sei deeply understands: a public chain is a mall, developers are the tenants, and users are the shoppers.
If the mall’s facilities (technical architecture) are poor, rent (Gas fees) is high, and there’s no traffic support, why would merchants stay?

• Sei’s mall service logic:
• Ultimate infrastructure: It is the world’s first parallelized EVM (Parallel EVM) public chain. If Ethereum is a one-way street, Sei is a multi-lane高速路 (superhighway). This technology isn’t for show; it’s to make the contracts of "merchants" run more stably and faster, without drops.

• Traffic and capital infusion: Just like Wanda malls give rent discounts to big brands, Sei uses various incentive plans to directly attract high-quality applications (DEX, NFT, gaming), provide subsidies, and ensure developers on Sei can not only survive but thrive.

3️⃣ Sei’s "Killer" Advantages Compared to Other Public Chains
Why praise Sei among thousands of competitors? Because it solves the three core pain points of public chains:

• First: It solves the awkwardness of "easy to use but incompatible."
In the past, high-performance chains (like Solana) and Ethereum ecosystems were fragmented. Sei V2 completely bridges these gaps, allowing developers to migrate their "shops" from Ethereum to Sei at zero cost, while enjoying speeds a hundred times faster than Ethereum.

• Second: It is "born for trading" at its core.
Whether you’re into DeFi, NFT, or gaming, the essence is asset exchange. Sei has optimized its native order-matching engine at the bottom layer, providing a "professional" service that makes handling high-frequency, large-volume orders much smoother than those "general-purpose" public chains.

• Third: Continuous development, rejecting "one-hit wonders."
Many public chains peak at launch, then their ecosystems become empty. But Sei has been actively evolving from V1 to V2, and recently through Sei GG Game Week and multiple creator funds, you can almost see its ongoing efforts every month. This persistent "building and recruiting" is the true source of ecosystem vitality.

This is Brother Qiang’s summary, and I also hope everyone can share their views and discuss with me.
