Sei and Xiaomi Collaborate to Preinstall Next-Gen Crypto Wallet on Xiaomi Smartphones
Sei and Xiaomi have partnered to preinstall a next-generation crypto wallet and discovery app on Xiaomi smartphones sold outside the U.S. and mainland China.
The app supports Sei-native stablecoin payments and allows login via Google and Xiaomi IDs, offering curated access to decentralized applications (DApps).
Stablecoin payments, including USDC, are planned for rollout in Hong Kong and the European Union by the second quarter of 2026, as Sei aims to extend blockchain technology beyond crypto-native audiences.
The initial rollout of the Sei app targets regions with already established crypto adoption, such as Europe, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Africa.
Sei and Xiaomi will also explore enabling stablecoin payments across Xiaomi's broader mobile ecosystem and retail stores.
Sei Co-Founder Jeff Feng described this partnership as a watershed moment for crypto adoption and onboarding.
This collaboration follows prior blockchain-smartphone integrations like Samsung Galaxy's Blockchain Keystore/Wallet in 2019, HTC Exodus, and Solana Saga and Seeker devices.
