  Sei is a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain optimized for trading and
  decentralized exchange (DEX) applications. It is the first parallelized EVM
  blockchain, delivering sub-second block times (~400ms), 100 MGas/s throughput,
  and full Ethereum compatibility without code changes. Sei combines Twin Turbo
  Consensus, a parallelization engine, and SeiDB to eliminate traditional
  performance bottlenecks. Developers can interact with Sei through EVM
  JSON-RPC endpoints (Ethereum-compatible) and Cosmos REST/LCD endpoints for
  querying markets, orders, accounts, staking, governance, and DEX state on the
  pacific-1 mainnet and atlantic-2 testnet networks.

    name: Sei EVM JSON-RPC API
    description: >-
      Ethereum-compatible JSON-RPC API for interacting with Sei's EVM layer.
      Supports standard Ethereum methods for sending transactions, querying
      account balances and code, retrieving block and transaction data, managing
      log filters, estimating gas, and tracing transaction execution. Also
      includes Sei-specific extensions for cross-VM address resolution and
      synthetic transaction lookups. The public mainnet endpoint is rate-limited
      to 15 requests per second; dedicated endpoints are available through
      infrastructure providers for production workloads.
