Chainlink Data Streams Launches on Sei Network for Economic Data Access

Chainlink Data Streams launched on the Sei network on September 10, introducing an institutional-grade oracle solution.

  • Chainlink is designated as the preferred oracle provider for Sei.
  • The system operates on a pull-based model, delivering market data with sub-second latency.
  • It provides high-frequency market data and liquidity-weighted bid-ask spreads.
  • This enables improved risk management and accurate pricing in DeFi applications.
  • Key U.S. economic data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis will be available onchain.

Sei's ecosystem is rapidly growing, with:

  • Over 64.3 million unique addresses.
  • More than 3.8 billion transactions to date.
  • A Total Value Locked (TVL) exceeding $591 million.
  • Over 2 million transactions in the last 24 hours and 395,000 new addresses created.

Recent developments include:

  • 21Shares filed for a spot SEI ETF, enhancing investor sentiment.
  • A strategic shift from Cosmos to Ethereum for better integration with DeFi.
  • Chainlink holds a multi-oracle environment alongside Pyth and Band Protocol.

Research indicates that while both Chainlink and Pyth offer low-latency solutions, Chainlink's performance is approximately one second, compared to Pyth's 800 milliseconds. Chainlink recently became the first oracle to achieve ISO 27001 certification.
