What to Know:
- Robinhood has enabled trading for Sei (SEI), allowing users to buy, sell, and hold the Sei Network’s native token directly in the app, with 24-hour access across most US states except New York and Texas.

Crypto trading platform Robinhood has officially allowed trading for Sei (SEI), the native token of Sei Network. After this update, users can easily buy, sell, and hold SEI directly via the Robinhood app, with 24-hour trading availability in the US.
But, SEI trading will be restricted in a few US states, i.e., New York and Texas in order to ensure that local regulations are always upheld. But, the launch signifies expansion for Robinhood’s crypto division, which continues to launch newer cryptos into its app.
Robinhood Lists SEI Trading
For Sei Network, the launch means being available for a wider market exposure and access to millions of Robinhood users. For Robinhood, it strengthens its position in the competitive crypto brokerage space by adding an emerging Layer 1 project designed specifically for high-speed trading.

For current users, trading SEI follows the same process as other cryptos on the app. Users can search for “SEI,” choose a market or limit order, and execute trades instantly. The platform manages custody and settlement, eliminating the need for external wallets.
New users will need to verify their identity and fund their accounts before participating in the trading. Robinhood has emphasized that availability will be implemented differently for states, and users should confirm eligibility within the app before stepping into the waters.
The company has also warned that crypto investments carry risk. Price volatility, market liquidity, and regulatory changes can all affect trading results. As always, users are encouraged to review project fundamentals before buying new tokens.
A Robinhood listing can often act as a price catalyst for smaller crypto tokens. Even as no guaranteed outcome can be guaranteed, such listings typically increase trading activity and improves visibility among retail investors.
Note that SEI’s presence on a regulated crypto platform like Robinhood may also improve its popularity among traditional investors who prefer platforms with higher compliance norms. This could eventually support Sei’s goal of becoming a backbone for decentralized trading infrastructure. But, SEI is currently trading at $0.1883 after a drop of 5.2% in the past 24 hours.
But, the listing provides an easier pathway for investors who were previously limited to using special exchanges. SEI can now trade freely among the likes of major cryptos Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. This is possible without the hassle of managing multiple wallets or other platforms. Increased accessibility usually implies higher liquidity, alongside high-productive exchanges, not just in the partnership sense. Robinhood is notorious for being popular among traders and has a massive retail user base. This injects higher trading volumes and price stability. Additionally, it also introduces SEI to the general public, which in turn stimulates the general interaction in the Sei blockchain and the entire ecosystem.
Robinhood’s move aligns with a broader industry trend where traditional trading apps continue to add crypto assets that serve specific use cases.
Sei Network is a Layer 1 blockchain optimized for trading. The network aims to give near-instant transaction finality, low fees, and infrastructure suited for decentralized exchanges and on-chain trading platforms.
A striking USP of SEI is its parallelized transaction execution, which allows multiple trades to be processed at once, increasing throughput. The network also includes a native order-matching engine, an uncommon feature for Layer 1 chains, designed to ensure fairer trade execution and reduce front-running risks.
By addressing congestion and latency, Sei targets developers building decentralized finance (DeFi) apps that demand speed and reliability. Its ecosystem includes projects working on derivatives, DEX platforms, and liquid staking solutions.
The listing on Robinhood adds more credibility to Sei’s already ongoing expansion. In the past, SEI has had integrations with major exchanges and infrastructure partners that helped its market reach grow in 2025.
