Sei's parallel EVM has been launched on the mainnet, finding a clear application direction in the high-frequency trading field — this is a good progress. But there is a key issue worth considering: whether the performance advantage can ultimately be truly converted into user activity? This depends on three factors. First is whether the practical application can be implemented; having technology alone is not enough, there must be projects that can be genuinely used. Second is system stability; high performance must also run stably. Finally, it is the real adoption rate of the ecosystem; whether developers and users are willing to migrate over to use it. From the current perspective, Sei's technological direction is clear, but to make parallel EVM truly become the mainstream choice, these practical issues need to be addressed one by one.

High performance ≠ profitability, that's the key. --- Is this another story of "technically awesome but nobody uses it"? --- Basically, it's about whether Sei can attract developers; it's still early. --- Stability is the biggest pitfall. A bug in high-frequency trading could be disastrous. --- Parallel EVM, huh? Sounds impressive, but is there really a killer app? --- I'm more concerned about when it can make money; everything else is superficial. --- These kinds of chains are all the same. They talk a good game technically, but ecosystem implementation is very difficult. --- High migration costs. Why would users come over? Subsidies? --- The papers sound good, but mainnet is the real test. --- Sei is a promising direction, but don't overhype it.

To be honest, the technology is impressive, but the ecosystem is the real test. It's not that I haven't used high-performance chains like this before; the key is whether projects are willing to come. Can Sei handle stability? That's the main point. It sounds like another story of excess performance and lack of applications... Parallel EVM sounds good, but I'm worried it might just become another neglected L1.

Honestly, Parallel EVM sounds awesome, but the ecosystem is the key. Without projects using it, it's all pointless. I just want to know, what truly high-frequency trading projects are running on Sei? Performance is great, but stability is the real test—if it crashes, everything's over. Will developers migrate over? That's the real challenge, and it's hard to tell right now. The technical approach is good, but actual implementation is what matters. Otherwise, it's just another PPT chain.

No matter how loud the technical talk is, it’s useless if no one actually uses it. Sei is currently in this state. The high-frequency trading scenario is indeed clear, but what about ecological applications? Developers? It’s all just empty talk. Stability is the key. Even with explosive performance, if it keeps having issues every now and then, it’s pointless. To put it simply, it depends on whether the subsequent ecosystem can develop; otherwise, it’s just another blockchain with strong technical capabilities but no users. The high-frequency track is a good entry point; it all depends on whether Sei can make this game work.
