The visualization supports the post's claim about Sei's severe TVL erosion, illustrating that despite being a high-performance DeFi Layer 1 blockchain with Cosmos SDK, parallel processing, and instant settlement capabilities, it has suffered massive liquidity outflows as capital increasingly flows toward Ethereum Layer 2s like Base and emerging chains like Robinhood's network rather than non-Solana EVM-compatible Layer 1s. > > "Sei suffered a serious TVL loss like Aptos. The main reason for this is that the EVM-compatible Layer 1 narrative is no longer attracting projects and liquidity. Volume outside of Solana is flowing to Ethereum Layer 2s. Both Base and Robinhood's network are currently in vogue." ### Post #5 by @canozsuer > **Author:** Can Özsüer ([@canozsuer](https://x.com/canozsuer)) > **Metrics:** 19 likes · 0 retweets · 2 comments · 5.3K views > **Posted:** 2026-08-09T22:22:03+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/canozsuer/status/2086578782920380631](https://x.com/canozsuer/status/2086578782920380631) > **Visual Note:** A TradingView chart of Cardano (ADA) against USDT on the Binance exchange shows a 6-hour candlestick view with price levels marked around $0.270-0.272 and a descending trendline near $0.248, illustrating a notable decline from May highs.
