I helped a friend overseas collect money. The amount is not large, only a few hundred dollars. bank transfer? T+2。 Traditional payment? Take a bite of the handling fee first. We also need to explain the purpose, source, and identity. I suddenly realized that it's not that transferring money is difficult, it's that the old system can no longer keep up. The payment system is gradually becoming a burden The issue of global payments is actually quite consistent now: Slow - Money on the Road Expensive - Every layer needs to be drawn Card - Limit, freeze, review at any time Stablecoins will definitely take over some payments, But the key is not whether there is a stablecoin or not, But rather: On which chain can you run. What Sei is doing is payment, not transaction Recently, I have noticed a very noticeable change: Payments on Sei are accelerating. In the past six months, The supply of P2P stablecoins on Sei has increased by 152%, Approaching 100 million US dollars. P2P here is not a lock up, not an exchange, But it is directly placed in the wallet for transferring and paying money. This indicates one thing: The stablecoins on Sei have started to be used as money. Why do payments go to Sei concentration Firstly, money is' alive ' Most stablecoins on the chain, Either on the exchange or in the agreement. And in Sei: Stablecoins mainly flow between wallets. This means that they assume the roles of transfer and payment. Secondly, the experience is approaching Web2 Sub-second settlement。 Almost as soon as the order is completed, it will be credited to the account. Not 'block confirmation in progress', You ordered it, the person has already received it. This is the watershed of whether payment can be implemented or not. Thirdly, the cost is so low that it can be ignored Near-zero fees。 It's not cheap, it hardly affects decision-making. This makes: Small transfer cross-border remittance Micro payment Becoming reasonable, usable, and sustainable. The stablecoin structure has been laid out Sei is not relying on a single stablecoin to sustain the market, but rather: Covering the most commonly used stablecoins worldwide Compliant and enterprise level Can be directly connected to real-world systems This means that it is not circulating within the cryptocurrency circle, but rather reserved interfaces for real payments. Payment begins to depart from the context of the cryptocurrency circle When you no longer use 'on chain' to understand it, everything goes smoothly: Personal: Give money to overseas family members Transfer money to friends daily payment Merchant: Not drawn Unequal settlement Not being choked by the platform Enterprise: Real time settlement automatic split billing automatic reconciliation Global payments move faster on Sei, Why are old systems being bypassed Traditional Payment: 2-3% handling fee+delayed settlement+high cross-border costs. Stablecoins+Sei: Point-to-point transfer, Instant settlement, There are almost no intermediate costs. When the gap widens, Migration is just a matter of time. What should we focus on now Don't just focus on the price. Go see: Is P2P stablecoin rising Is the money being transferred in real money Should we start accepting real-life payment scenarios Payment is not a breakthrough point, It is a long-term business that consumes scale. Many chains are speculating on services, Sei is in service flow. When money really starts running, The winner must be that one Infrastructure that makes money transfers faster, cheaper, and more natural. Global payments don’t need hype. They need speed. Sei is walking in this direction.
