SEI Mainnet Goes Live, SEI Airdrop Announced

Sei’s mainnet has already garnered significant support from developers and users alike. According to a recent press release, over 200 teams are building on the blockchain, and it has more than 7.5 million unique wallets. The mainnet is the foundation for various applications scheduled to launch in the second half of 2023, including Sushiswap’s decentralized perpetual futures exchange.

In a recent statement, Jeff Feng, co-founder of Sei Labs, emphasized the significance of the mainnet launch. “Current web 3 infrastructure is un-scalable, congested, and still too slow,” he said. “Sei is designed to let apps and other projects scale in a way that no other blockchain can, while also maintaining a user-friendly experience.”

In tandem with the mainnet launch, the Sei Foundation announced SEI airdrop for allowed users who bridge qualifying assets into the Sei network. Examples of purchases eligible for the airdrop include USDC, ETH, maticUSDC, and bnbUSDT. 

Active users on Solana, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, Binance Smart Chain, and Osmosis are eligible to participate. Wallets must be mainnet-ready and connected to the Pacific-1 Mainnet to receive airdrop tokens.

Coinbase, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, announced support for the newly launched SEI token, with trading anticipated to begin if liquidity conditions are met. Other significant businesses, including Binance, Bybit, Bitget, KuCoin, and Upbit, have also announced SEI listings.

 

As a result of the listings, the Sei (SEI) price had risen by 3126.53% to $0.2639 at the time of publication, demonstrating the token’s tremendous demand and enthusiasm. This price increase reflects the market’s trust in SEI and its potential for development.
