- SEI price is 130% below its 200 EMA at $0.1253 with no bullish structure.
- Ichimoku cloud remains red and angled down, as bears hold structural control.
- Compression at $0.05–$0.06 may precede a sharp move in either direction.
- MetaMask gas sponsorship and Giga upgrade are building fundamental pressure.
SEI coin price is up roughly 4% today, trading at $0.05656, but the intraday bounce does nothing to alter a chart that has spent months printing lower highs and lower lows without a single meaningful recovery attempt. The technical picture remains unambiguously bearish, but what makes this moment worth watching is what is accumulating underneath it.
SEI Coin Selling Pressure Fades Without a Buyer in Sight
Analyst CyrilXBT filed the summary of where the SEI price stands structurally. The crypto analyst tweeted on Thursday that the SEI coin price is sitting at the bottom of the $0.05–$0.10 demand zone, the 200 EMA is at $0.1253, and that 130% gap between the two reflects months of sellers never letting price breathe.
The Ichimoku cloud confirms every layer of that read. The chart shows the price broke below the cloud and has not tested it since. The cloud itself is red, sloping downward, and positioned well overhead, with the lower boundary sitting around $0.07–$0.08, a level SEI coin has not touched in months.

Tenkan is below Kijun on the daily. Both lines are declining and have consistently absorbed whatever buying pressure emerged at prior lows. Every rally gets sold, and that dynamic has not broken.
What has shifted is the velocity of the decline. Candles around $0.05–$0.06 are contracting, and CyrilXBT reads this as possible early base formation but stops short of calling it accumulation.
The SEI price prediction from his analysis is mechanical, meaning the price needs to clear $0.062 to reclaim Kijun, then push into the cloud at $0.07–$0.08, and eventually hold above $0.10 before any bias shifts from bearish to neutral.
MetaMask and Giga Upgrade Keep Fundamentals in Play
While the technical structure stays bearish, Sei Network is not standing still. MetaMask confirmed it will now cover all gas fees for transactions on Sei, including swaps, contract interactions, and everything. The network handles the cost in the background, giving users a Web2-style experience with no wallet friction.
For a chain already sitting fifth among all Layer-1 blockchains by daily active users at 1.1 million, plugging directly into MetaMask’s distribution removes the last behavioral barrier for retail onboarding. Sei coin currently holds 6.6% of the total L1 active user market share against a combined base of 16.2 million across all tracked chains.
The larger technical catalyst is the SEI Giga upgrade, a full parallelized EVM overhaul targeting 200,000-plus transactions per second, sub-400ms finality, and 5 Giga Gas per second throughput. Parallel block proposals, asynchronous state commitments, and a rebuilt EVM client form the architectural backbone.
Sei Labs separately confirmed all future research will default to post-quantum standards, with a public roadmap in development to make Sei Giga the first high-performance post-quantum blockchain at the L1 layer.
A successful Giga implementation would drive organic SEI token demand through gas and staking, creating a structural price floor if adoption follows. For now, traders are watching the $0.05–$0.06 compression.
