The initiative will initially be rolled out in regions with relatively high cryptocurrency adoption, including Europe, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Africa, where Xiaomi also holds a significant market share.
“By embedding Sei’s high-performance infrastructure directly into one of the world’s most popular mobile ecosystems, we are not just solving the onboarding problem — we are reimagining how billions of users will interact with digital assets in everyday life,” commented Sei Labs co-founder Jeff Feng.
The wallet app will use Google and Xiaomi IDs for simplified login, feature built-in MPC protection, and provide access to select decentralized applications.
As part of the collaboration, there are also plans to implement stablecoin payments “across Xiaomi’s global retail and digital ecosystem.” Users will be able to purchase smartphones and other company products using Sei’s native “stable coins,” such as USDC.
The launch of this functionality is scheduled for the second quarter of 2026, initially covering Hong Kong and the EU.
“We are moving from a world where you have to find cryptocurrency to a world where it finds you. With finalization in under 400 ms and the ability to process thousands of transactions per second, Sei’s infrastructure is uniquely prepared to meet the demands of mass consumer applications,” added Sei Labs co-founder Jay Jog.
Following the news, the native token of the blockchain — SEI — increased by 2.4%. At the time of writing, the asset is trading around $0.14.
Back in August, the Web3 wallet MetaMask added support for the Sei L1 network.
