Jay Jog began his career as an early engineer at Robinhood, where he collaborated with premier fintech talent to develop the critical infrastructure that onboarded millions of users. Experiencing the GME saga firsthand proved to be a turning point, revealing that centralized systems operate smoothly only until unexpected pressures cause them to fail.
Five years down the road, he decided to leave an industry-leading position to create an entirely new foundational layer for finance, naming the venture Sei. By dedicating years to optimizing block times and reducing latency, that groundwork has translated into extraordinary throughput. The network has now recorded upwards of 101 million addresses, surpassed 5.2 billion total transactions, and facilitated more than 16 billion dollars in decentralized exchange volume.
This technological foundation has drawn significant institutional engagement. Circle introduced native USDC along with its Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP), while KAIO paved the way for fund access from both BlackRock and Brevan Howard. Furthermore, Apollo brought ACRED to Sei by partnering with Securitize, and Mastercard officially integrated Sei into its Crypto Partner Program. Following the successful governance approval of Autobahn, focus is shifting toward the launch of Sei Giga as engineering efforts move steadily forward.
