Sei Price Prediction: SEI tests the $0.14 resistance again, Xiaomi Wallet integration could be a potential reversal catalyst

Sei (SEI) price is once again testing the key resistance level of $0.14 amid a surge in trading volume, while its new integration with Xiaomi Wallet has also refocused market attention on its long-term potential. As of now, SEI is quoted at $0.1421, up 2.1% in the past 24 hours, nearly 2.3% over the past week, but down 24% over the past 30 days, remaining in a weak overall structure.

The sudden spike in market activity is the core driver of recent market trends. In the past 24 hours, SEI’s spot trading volume surged 261% to $237 million. Derivative data is equally strong, with open interest increasing 8.7% to $100 million, and derivative trading volume jumping 202% to $400 million. This indicates that funds are establishing new positions, typically signaling a potential directional breakout.

The biggest positive news comes from the Xiaomi partnership announced on December 10. Sei will launch a new financial application directly embedded in Xiaomi’s latest smartphones, supporting stablecoin payments, P2P transfers, and a decentralized application discovery center. Xiaomi has over 680 million global users and sells more than 170 million devices annually. This means that, besides Mainland China and the US, new Xiaomi phones worldwide will come pre-installed with the “Sei Mobile App,” covering key markets such as Europe, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa.

Analysts note that this is an extremely rare hardware-level distribution collaboration, eliminating the need for App Store downloads or manual registration. Even with an activation rate as low as 10%, Sei could add over 17 million potential users annually. Alongside the partnership announcement, Sei has also established a $5 million Mobile Innovation Fund and will upgrade its Giga Upgrade to increase TPS to about 200,000 transactions, fully advancing its payment sector layout.

From a technical perspective, Sei’s price has begun to show signs of stabilization after a long decline. The K-line has re-entered the middle band of the Bollinger Bands for the first time, with the bands narrowing and the price approaching the upper band, indicating potential upward volatility breakout. The RSI has rebounded from oversold territory to around 48 and crossed above the signal line, further indicating increasing momentum. Short-term moving averages are trending upward, but long-term averages remain bearish, suggesting the market is still in early recovery.

Currently, key support levels are in the $0.124–$0.135 range, while resistance above is concentrated at $0.145–$0.146. If SEI can break through and close above this zone, it could open up an upward space toward $0.17–$0.18. Conversely, falling back below $0.135 would break the short-term bullish structure.

Overall, Xiaomi integration is viewed as a major fundamental positive for Sei, and the surge in trading volume along with technical improvements may create conditions for a rebound. However, whether a trend reversal can occur still depends on whether the price can break through the critical resistance of $0.145–$0.146.
