Sei Network has successfully launched its mainnet, marking a transformative step in addressing the exchange trilemma—a long-standing challenge in blockchain technology. By harmonizing decentralization, scalability, and capital efficiency, Sei introduces groundbreaking innovations that redefine Layer 1 blockchains.
Understanding the Exchange Trilemma
The exchange trilemma highlights the trade-offs between three core pillars:
- Decentralization: Ensuring distributed control.
- Scalability: Handling high transaction volumes.
- Capital Efficiency: Optimizing liquidity and trading costs.
Traditional blockchains struggle to balance these, often sacrificing one for the others. Sei Network’s monolithic architecture and innovative consensus mechanisms aim to resolve this conflict.
