SEI climbs 22% to hit new all-time high after lackluster launch

Sei's SEI cryptocurrency reaches new high with 70% week-on-week surge driven by network milestones, technical advancements, and strategic partnerships.

The SEI cryptocurrency, the native token of the Sei blockchain, hit an all-time high of $0.79 this week after an impressive 70% surge over the past seven days. This surge in price is attributed to several key developments and indicators in the Sei ecosystem.

Based on CryptoSlate data , the price of SEI stood at $0.75414, with a market capitalization of $1.73 billion and a 24-hour trading volume of $1.23 billion. The cryptocurrency has experienced a significant increase of 12.45% in the last 24 hours and an impressive growth of 186.27% over the past 30 days​.

Growth drivers

Several factors have contributed to the remarkable growth since its rather lackluster airdrop and launch on exchanges in August 2023. Key among them is the Sei Network’s milestone of processing over 1.1 billion transactions, indicating a growing real-world adoption of the blockchain.

The SEI token is the primary currency for activities on the Sei blockchain, and the network’s expansion and technical achievements are likely driving investor interest.

Technological advancements have also played a crucial role. Sei has achieved a notable technical milestone by reducing its time-to-finality to 390 milliseconds, one of the fastest in blockchain networks.

Sei has also recently implemented internal parallelization of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), enhancing the efficiency of decentralized applications on its blockchain.

Partnerships and meme coin fever

Additionally, strategic partnerships and developments like the Atlantic-2 Testnet and the Pacific-1 Mainnet beta launch have further bolstered the network’s credibility​.

Strategic partnerships and endorsements have also played a significant role in driving the price surge. Sei Network recently partnered with entities like Kryptonite and Gecko Terminal to expand its ecosystem.

Additionally, the SEI token has benefited from the recent meme coin fever, with SEIYAN becoming a cult term among SEI token holders. This has helped drive further interest and investment in SEI.

In terms of market performance, SEI has shown remarkable strength, recording a significant number of green days, which indicates robust and sustained demand. The cryptocurrency’s high liquidity and market capitalization make it a favorable choice for traders and investors.

Oil tanker freight reaches a sixty-year high: shipping oil from the US to China is more expensive than launching a rocket!

The freight for a single barrel of crude oil has soared to $41, approaching half the oil price, and for a single trip, the freight was once enough to buy an oil tanker. The Middle East crisis has led to a structural shortage of shipping capacity in the Strait of Hormuz, coupled with ship-to-ship transfers extending turnaround times. VLCC freight rates have skyrocketed from an annual average of $9.2 million to $77 million—an increase of more than eight times. Refiners’ profits are being rapidly eroded, the average price of second-hand oil tankers has reached a historic high, and, unusually, surpassed the price of new vessels.

Following the Drop but Not the Rise! Silver Trapped in Difficulties

The logic of AI and solar energy demand continues to play out, yet prices are falling against the trend—macroeconomic forces such as a strengthening US dollar and rising real interest rates have completely suppressed fundamentals. Speculative funds offloaded $1.6 billion in a single week, marking a yearly peak, while CTA net short positions reversed by $2.6 billion to the highest level this year. However, Goldman Sachs analysts believe that the extreme short positioning itself is building reversal momentum, highlighting an asymmetry; once macro headwinds subside, a retaliatory rebound could be easily triggered. After a similar shakeout last time, silver surged 15% in six weeks.
