SEI Gets Ledger Enterprise Support as Institutional Custody Expands

Ledger Enterprise adds native Sei Network support, bringing multi-signature custody and audit-ready infrastructure to institutions ahead of Giga upgrade.

Ledger Enterprise has added native support for Sei Network, giving institutional players access to enterprise-grade custody on one of crypto's fastest EVM chains. The integration arrives as Sei prepares for major technical upgrades and continues attracting institutional-grade assets to its ecosystem.

SEI currently trades at $0.071, up 3% over 24 hours, with a market cap of $476 million.

What Institutions Actually Get

The integration isn't just checkbox compliance. Ledger Enterprise users can now send and receive tokens on Sei through the platform's web interface with the full institutional toolkit: multi-signature governance for transaction approval, role-based access controls for treasury teams, and complete audit trails for every on-chain action.

Every Ledger hardware device in the lineup now supports Sei signing. That means institutions managing assets across multiple networks can add Sei to their existing workflows without new infrastructure or operational changes.

For treasury operations, the practical benefit is straightforward. Teams can define exactly who initiates transactions, who approves them, and who executes — the same permission structure they'd use for Ethereum or any other supported chain.

Timing Matters Here

This custody expansion lands at a pivotal moment for Sei. The network is mid-transition to an EVM-only architecture, with Coinbase announcing support for the migration scheduled April 6-8, 2026. The Giga upgrade looms on the horizon, promising throughput exceeding 200,000 TPS after successful devnet testing hit that benchmark in August 2025.

Sei's current specs — 400ms finality and 12,500 TPS through its Parallelized EVM — already outpace most competitors. But institutional adoption typically lags technical capability. Custody infrastructure closes that gap.

The network has been building what it calls the "Market Infrastructure Grid" — a network of custody, liquidity, and security partners forming an institutional backbone. Ledger Enterprise joins existing integrations with tokenized treasury products from BlackRock and Ondo, plus native USDC from Circle.

Trading Implications

Institutional custody access doesn't move prices overnight, but it removes friction for larger players considering allocation. SEI has held support near $0.072 recently, with traders watching for potential breakout toward $0.30 according to recent technical analysis.

The combination of custody infrastructure, upcoming Giga performance gains, and EVM migration creates a clearer institutional on-ramp than most alt-L1s currently offer. Whether that translates to meaningful capital inflows depends on execution through the April migration window and beyond.

Ledger Enterprise says deeper protocol integrations and broader token coverage will follow the initial send/receive functionality.
