US traders and DeFi fans have turned their eyes to Sei Network (SEI) after its Total Value Locked (TVL) climbed past $626 million. That leap marks a huge rise from about $60 million at the start of 2024, showing a strong wave of new funds and fresh users staking assets on the chain.
Sei Network TVL Rockets
According to DeFiLlama, TVL on Sei surged from roughly $60 million in January 2024 to almost $700 million at its peak. That represents nearly a 10 × gain in just six months—growth most rival chains only manage in single‑digit or low double‑digit jumps of 10–50 % over the same stretch. Based on reports by crypto fans on X, this kind of TVL swing is very rare in today’s tight market.

On‑Chain Activity Picks Up
Crypto observer Kyledoops shared that daily transfers and smart‑contract calls on Sei have climbed steadily. “More capital is flowing in and on‑chain actions are rising,” he wrote.
Some market observers say that some parts of the ecosystem saw 10–50 % jumps in TVL, with a few protocols posting even bigger gains. This buzz comes at a time when many DeFi projects are struggling to grow.
Japan Approval Draws Investors
Based on reports, a key boost arrived when Sei earned approval from the Japan Financial Services Agency. That nod gives it a regulated path into one of the world’s strictest crypto markets.
Artemis Analytics noted that daily active addresses hit a two‑year high right after the JFSA greenlight. Institutions are said to be taking a closer look at trading and custody options in Tokyo.

Price Swings Test Support
SEI’s token price more than doubled in June after a US government‑backed stablecoin pilot was announced and after SEI Labs proposed SIP‑3, a shift to an EVM‑only chain.
Even with that jump, the coin still sits about 78 % below its March 2024 peak, trading around $0.26 today. Some technical analysts point to a chart floor at $0.25. A breach there could push SEI closer to $0.20, which would put pressure on holders who bought in at higher levels.
Sei Price Forecast
According to current projections, SEI is set to drop by 25% and reach $0.19 by August 8, 2025. Based on technical indicators, market sentiment remains Bullish while the Fear & Greed Index sits at 66 (Greed).
Over the last 30 days, SEI logged 17/30 (57%) green days and saw 19% price swings in that window. These figures suggest that short‑term dips could be sharp, but buyers may view lower prices as a chance to get in.
