Frequently asked questions
What is SEI?
SEI (SEI) is a Layer 1 blockchain designed and developed to provide high speed and great efficiency in running decentralized applications (DApps). It features fast transaction confirmation times of approximately 400 milliseconds, as well as its ability to process multiple transactions in parallel, giving it high scalability. The network relies on a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) mechanism, in which validators stake SEI tokens to secure the network and verify transactions. It also features a built-in order-matching system that helps execute trades efficiently and minimizes front-running.
How does the SEI network work?
The SEI network is built on the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) mechanism, where SEI token holders delegate their tokens to validators to verify transactions and their validity and produce blocks in exchange for rewards. The network uses a “Twin-Turbo” consensus mechanism that accelerates block propagation and transaction ordering, allowing for confirmation in as little as 400 milliseconds. SEI also relies on parallel transaction processing, enabling multiple transactions to be executed simultaneously, which increases the network’s speed and scalability. The network also supports smart contracts compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and the SeiDB database, which help improve data storage and retrieval speeds.
