Sei is the first sector-specific blockchain, claiming to be the fastest Layer 1 blockchain in the industry, with 20,000 Transactions Per Second. Specialized for traders, Sei has raised $30M from some of the largest exchanges, including CoinBase. It's still in the testnet phase, so we could be rewarded for our testing.

Wallet Setup

We need to install a Cosmos wallet to use Sei, and I'd recommend Leap Wallet. It has plenty of features we need, including a built in Faucet and Staking. To switch networks, use the box in the top right and make sure you're on "Sei (Atlantic 2)." Once setup, claim the Sei Testnet Faucet. If you find yourself with extra Sei after going through the dApps, or if you use the faucet again in 24 hours, I'd recommend staking some Sei with any validator.
