- SEI’s descending wedge breakout positions price above $0.20, signaling potential upward movement toward $0.22–$0.23 resistance levels.
- Total Value Locked in SEI surged past $400 million after mid-2025, reflecting strong DeFi ecosystem adoption and capital inflows.
- Institutional platforms like KAIO_xyz are bringing major firms on-chain, highlighting SEI’s capacity to handle high-volume real-world assets efficiently.
SEI is making waves again as price jumps above $0.20, fueled by institutional moves and skyrocketing TVL, hinting at a fresh bullish run that could shake the DeFi market this quarter.
Technical Patterns and Price Movements
The SEI/USDT chart is showing a classic descending wedge, over recent sessions, the price has been squeezed between downward-sloping trendlines, forming lower highs and lower lows. SEI managed to break above the upper trendline.

If SEI stays above $0.2002, the next targets are at $0.2069, $0.2138, and $0.2227 but a drop below $0.2000 may lead to a retest near $0.1820.
This pattern shows steady consolidation as traders prepare for a possible upward move. Analysts also pointed out that holding above $0.2070–$0.2130 would strengthen the chances of continued bullish momentum.
Ecosystem Growth and TVL Trends
SEI’s Total Value Locked TVL surged past $200 million by mid-2024 and exceeded $400 million in early 2025. Then went to $650–700 million in mid-2025, driven by new protocols and increased user activity, before retracing to about $400 million by October.
Despite the pullback, TVL is showing a more mature DeFi ecosystem and remains far above early levels.Continued innovation and user engagement will help sustain this liquidity.
Accumulation Zones and Institutional Interest
The Sei intern account on X reported ongoing accumulation in the $0.19 zone, the same area that triggered previous major price moves. Market volume is currently low, while price consolidation signals stronger hands taking positions. Historical performance below $0.20 showed significant upward movements in past cycles.
@whosfarmin highlighted that the $0.16–$0.17 support zone was reclaimed, leading to advances toward $0.22–$0.23. Institutional involvement through platforms like @KAIO_xyz is bringing real-world assets, including major firms such as BlackRock and Hamilton Lane, on-chain.
This adoption emphasizes SEI’s capacity to manage high-volume transactions efficiently. The network’s architecture and speed are cited as reasons it attracts institutional capital, positioning SEI as a key settlement layer for on-chain financial activity.
