Sei, a Layer 1 blockchain, has partnered with Xiaomi, the world's third-largest smartphone manufacturer, to preinstall crypto applications on new devices. This collaboration involves a $5 million initiative called the "Global Mobile Innovation Program," which will see crypto wallets and discovery apps included on all Xiaomi smartphones sold outside of mainland China and the United States. This move is significant, especially since Xiaomi has a strong presence in markets like India, where it holds 24% of the smartphone market, and Greece, with 37%. The rollout will target regions known for being crypto-friendly, including Latin America, Southeast Asia, Africa, and parts of Europe. This strategic choice could help Sei tap into emerging markets where cryptocurrency adoption is on the rise. The timing aligns with a recent uptick in the SEI token's value, which has risen nearly 10% amid a broader market rally. Sei has also seen impressive growth in its user base, with daily active users reaching an all-time high of 1.6 million on November 26, 2025, up from just 204,000 in February of the same year. This rapid increase in user engagement indicates strong interest in Sei's offerings and suggests that the partnership with Xiaomi could further boost its visibility and adoption in key markets.
