Binance.US has officially added Sei Network’s native token, SEI, giving U.S. users regulated access to a Layer-1 blockchain designed for fast, low-cost decentralized finance transactions. Trading for the SEI/USDT pair opened on November 13, 2025, at 6 a.m. EST.
The listing broadens exposure to a network that blends the developer familiarity of Ethereum with transaction performance closer to Solana. Backed by major investors—including Multicoin, Jump, Coinbase Ventures, and Circle Ventures—Sei’s core team includes talent from Google, Databricks, Coinbase, Uber, and Goldman Sachs.
Sei’s technical metrics remain central to its appeal: the blockchain can process up to 200,000 transactions per second, finalizes activity in about 400 milliseconds, and maintains average transaction fees near $0.0004. With more than 78 million active wallets, Sei ranks first among EVM-compatible chains by active addresses.
The U.S. listing arrived shortly after Binance joined Sei as a network validator, further aligning the exchange with the chain’s focus on institutional-grade financial infrastructure and tokenization.
Listing Details on Binance.US
Binance.US announced the addition of SEI on November 12, with deposits opening immediately via the Sei network. Trading began the next day with a single supported pair, SEI/USDT.
The token is available to most U.S. regions, though some states maintain restrictions similar to those applied to other digital assets. For eligible users, the listing enables direct participation without relying on cross-chain bridges, reducing friction, fees, and security risk.
Trading fees follow Binance.US’s existing tiered model, ranging from 0.1% to 0.5%. Staking for SEI is planned but will launch under a separate announcement.
Why the Listing Matters for Sei Network
The listing expands Sei’s presence in the U.S. market and follows several notable milestones, including Robinhood’s recent addition of SEI and Binance’s entry as a Sei validator on November 6. As a validator, Binance contributes to network security while leveraging its global user base and more than $180 billion in assets under management.
Sei’s goal is to provide exchange-grade infrastructure capable of supporting tokenized real-world assets and high-throughput DeFi applications. Improved liquidity is expected for protocols like Folks Finance and Takara Lend, helping enhance price discovery and market efficiency.
The chain recently integrated Monaco’s implementation of Chainlink’s CCIP, supporting secure cross-chain transfers—an important component for its institutional strategy.
Despite high network activity, SEI has faced recent market volatility. As of writing, SEI trades at $0.17, with a market cap of approximately $1.1 billion after a 30-day decline of nearly 20%.
Recent Developments and What’s Ahead
Sei has been active across several fronts, including:
- •Binance becoming a network validator
- •Robinhood listing SEI
- •A $10M Creator Fund focused on NFTs
- •Ongoing research into optimizing Ethereum Virtual Machine performance
Looking forward, Ethereum’s upcoming Fusaka upgrade in December 2025 may benefit Sei due to compatibility improvements. SEI staking on Binance.US and further real-world asset integrations are also expected to shape the network’s next growth phase.
Conclusion
The SEI listing on Binance.US marks another step in Sei Network’s expansion, offering regulated access to a high-performance blockchain built for the demands of modern DeFi. By combining speed, low fees, and a growing institutional footprint, Sei continues to position itself as a competitive contender among Layer 1 platforms.
