Sei Labs Co-Founder: SIP-3 Upgrade Expected to Be Completed Mid-Year, Followed by Sei Giga Upgrade

Sei Labs co-founder Jay stated in a post that Sei Giga is about to be launched, and the team is working hard with major announcements coming soon. The SIP-3 upgrade of the Sei network is the final technical hurdle for the Sei Giga upgrade. The goal of the SIP-3 upgrade is to eliminate Sei's dual architecture (EVM + Cosmos) and transition to a pure EVM chain, which involves removing hundreds of thousands of lines of code. By mid-2026, Sei will become a pure EVM chain, at which point only EVM addresses will be able to initiate transactions. Once SIP-3 is implemented, Sei Giga will be the next target.
