Sei Labs co-founder: The SIP-3 upgrade is expected to be completed by mid-year, followed by the Sei Giga upgrade

Co-founder of Sei Labs, Jay, posted that Sei Giga is about to be released, and the team is working hard, with a significant announcement coming soon. The SIP-3 upgrade of the Sei network is the last technical hurdle for the Sei Giga upgrade. The goal of the SIP-3 upgrade is to eliminate Sei's dual architecture (EVM + Cosmos) and transition to a pure EVM chain, which involves removing hundreds of thousands of lines of code. By mid-2026, Sei will become a pure EVM chain, at which point only EVM addresses will be able to initiate transactions. Once SIP-3 is implemented, Sei Giga will be the next target.
