Sei Network has been attracting serious institutional firepower. BlackRock, Apollo, and Hamilton Lane collectively channeled $200 million through regulated tokenized funds—a major validation for on-chain infrastructure. What's striking: Apollo alone manages $800 billion in assets, and they deployed their $1.2 billion credit fund directly onto Sei via Securitize. This kind of capital deployment signals institutional confidence. Sei's token currently sits at an $810 million market cap. For context, Avalanche, which has been around longer, commands $6.4 billion—but hosts significantly less institutional deployment by comparison. The trend here isn't just about money flowing in; it's about *where* it's flowing and why certain chains are becoming the infrastructure of choice for serious financial players.
