In recent months, speculation has arisen about which altcoins might show the greatest growth in 2025. Two projects stand out: Ondo Finance and Sei Network, each moving in its own direction.
Sei Network: High-Speed DeFi and EVM Expansion
Sei Network is making a name for itself in the DeFi space thanks to its fast blockchain. Unlike traditional chains, Sei processes transactions in parallel, which significantly increases throughput.
Currently, Sei is preparing to transition from Cosmos to an EVM-based chain with an upgrade called Giga, allowing it to reach up to 250,000 transactions per second.
The goal of this upgrade is to compete with web2 giants like Google in terms of speed and scalability. It is also worth noting that in April, World Liberty Financial bought over $770K of SEI, and Circle, the issuer of USDC, is also interested in Sei.
Ondo Finance: Expanding Tokenized Securities and RWA Alliances
Ondo Finance is the leader in the tokenization of real-world assets. Their Global Markets feature aims to bring public securities like stocks and ETFs on-chain, ensuring 24/7 access and fee-free transfers without intermediaries.
Currently, the asset size Ondo aims to bring on-chain is around $90 trillion, and they are actively working on expanding their capabilities. Ondo is creating a growing Global Market Alliance with platforms like BNB Chain and Bitget and has acquired companies like Strangelove and Oasis Pro, which demonstrates their commitment to regulatory compliance.
Which One Has the Edge?
Both platforms have advantages heading into 2025. Sei Network stands out with its high speed and scalability while planning integrations of real-world assets into its ecosystem.
Meanwhile, Ondo Finance already holds a leading position in the real-world asset sector and is actively securing partnerships that give it a first-mover advantage. Some analysts lean towards Ondo due to its traction in institutional circles and real-world use cases, which could play a key role in the future.
Thus, both Sei Network and Ondo Finance are carving out their niches and are positioned to impact the market in the coming years. Both projects are expected to be active in the next bull market.
