Hey there, meme enthusiasts! If you've been keeping an eye on the blockchain world, you might have caught this buzzworthy post from BSC News on X (original tweet). They're asking a bold question: Is $SEI the king of EVM? According to fresh data, Sei Network is skyrocketing in active wallets, leaving other chains in the dust. Let's dive into what this means, especially for those of us hunting the next big meme token.

Why Sei Network is Turning Heads

Sei Network, a high-speed Layer 1 blockchain, has been making waves since its shift to a full EVM-compatible setup earlier this year. EVM stands for Ethereum Virtual Machine – basically, it's the tech that lets smart contracts run smoothly across compatible chains like Ethereum, Polygon, and Avalanche. What sets Sei apart? Speed and efficiency. With upgrades allowing up to 200,000 transactions per second, it's built for high-frequency trading and DeFi apps.

The latest stats from sources like Artemis and Defillama show Sei leading with around 763,000 daily active wallets in the last 24 hours and an average of 900,000 over the past month (full details in the BSC News article). That's more than heavy hitters like Polygon (5.2 million over 30 days) and Avalanche (4.1 million). Even BNB Chain is neck-and-neck but not quite ahead.

This surge didn't happen overnight. Back in June 2025, Sei hit 500,000 daily unique active wallets, a 27% jump from the previous month. By August, total wallets ballooned to 8.3 million – a whopping 76% increase. Gaming dApps are a big driver here, with 14 of them boasting over 100,000 unique users each. And in Q2, Sei crossed the 1 million daily mark, with transaction volumes up 51% and dApp volumes soaring 73%.

Key Milestones Fueling the Growth

A few game-changing updates have propelled Sei forward:

• Chainlink Integration: Launched on September 10, 2025, this brings sub-second oracle data for over 300 assets, perfect for DeFi and tokenizing real-world assets.
• Native USDC and CCTP V2: Rolled out in July, enabling lightning-fast cross-chain transfers and reaching over 162 million users through telco partnerships.
• MetaMask Support: Added in August, connecting Sei to MetaMask's massive user base for easy swaps, bridging, and gaming – pushing daily wallets to 700,000 by month's end.
• Giga Upgrade: This May 2025 tweak cranked up transaction speeds, aiming for $600 million in total value locked (TVL) by Q4.

DEX volumes tell the story too: Over $1 billion in July and August, with September on track for $500 million. Year-over-year, daily active wallets are up 180% – talk about momentum!

What This Means for Meme Tokens

Now, let's get to the fun part: memes. While Sei is DeFi-focused, its ecosystem is ripe for meme coins. Low fees, blazing speeds, and growing user base make it an ideal playground for viral tokens. Top picks to watch in 2025 include MILLI, the "top dog" on Sei, and SEIYAN, an OG meme that's been gaining traction. Others like Sensei Dog and Seiga are bubbling up too, as seen on platforms like CoinGecko and DappRadar.

With more active wallets comes more liquidity and hype potential. Imagine launching a meme on a chain where transactions fly without gas wars – that's Sei. As the network eyes $600 million TVL, meme projects could ride this wave, attracting traders from slower chains. If you're building or investing in memes, Sei's stats scream opportunity. Keep an eye on gaming integrations; with 403,650 daily gaming wallets in May, meme-infused games could be the next meta.

In the ever-evolving crypto space, Sei's rise highlights how user engagement drives success. Whether you're in for the tech or the memes, this EVM leader is one to watch. Stay tuned to Meme Insider for more updates on tokens that could moon!
