Sei Labs releases whitepaper for Sei Giga targeting multiproposer EVM L1

Sei Labs, the main contributor to the layer 1 blockchain Sei, has announced the release of the Sei Giga whitepaper that outlines the design of the industry’s first multi-proposer Ethereum Virtual Machine layer 1 blockchain. Sei Giga is Sei ( SEI ) blockchain network’s new path towards becoming the first multi-proposer Ethereum Virtual Machine L1. According to an announcement shared with crypto.news, the upgrade proposes a design of parallel blocks, powered by the Autobahn consensus protocol. It means Sei Giga brings a solution to network bottlenecks related to data availability, execution, and storage, among others. The whitepaper release is the latest major development for Sei as the layer 1 blockchain continues its traction as one of the fastest-growing ecosystems in the market.
