We’re listing the following pairs globally.*
What is Optimism?
Optimism is a layer-two solution built on Ethereum that speeds up transactions and lowers costs, while still benefiting from Ethereum's security. It does this through optimistic rollups, meaning transactions are recorded on Optimism’s blockchain but are ultimately secured on Ethereum.
The OP token is a key player in Optimism’s ecosystem, supporting decentralized finance (DeFi) and decentralized apps (dApps). With over $500 million in total value locked and platforms like Uniswap and Synthetix already using it, Optimism is making a real impact in scaling Ethereum.

What is SEI?
SEI is the native token of the Sei blockchain network, which is the first Layer 1 blockchain that’s specifically tailored for decentralized exchanges. By optimizing for high transaction volumes and low fees, Sei allows DEXes to compete more effectively in the fast-moving crypto market. It also supports NFT and in-game item exchanges, making it versatile for a wide range of decentralized finance applications.
What is Arbitrum?
Arbitrum is a layer-two solution built on top of Ethereum. It helps make Ethereum transactions faster, cheaper, and more efficient by moving most of the work off-chain. This means you can enjoy lower fees and quicker transactions, without losing the security that Ethereum provides. Arbitrum’s technology is already being used by some of the biggest DeFi platforms.
The ARB token is used for governance, which means holders get to vote on important decisions, upgrades, and how the network moves forward through the Arbitrum DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization).
