SEDA is a Cosmos SDK Layer 1 that works as a programmable oraclenetwork, letting applications on many chains request and verify external data on-chain. Its native token is SEDA.
SEDA is a Layer 1 blockchain built with the Cosmos SDK that functions as a programmable oracle network. Rather than running general applications itself, it lets builders on many chains request data from outside sources, then settles, secures, and finalizes those data requests on the SEDA Chain. The mainnet went live in April 2024, and the native token is SEDA, formerly known as the Flux token. Here is how it works and what it is used for, not the price.

SEDA secures its chain with a Proof of Stake model running CometBFT, the Tendermint based consensus used across Cosmos SDK networks, with a capped set of validators. Validators stake SEDA and earn a share of network inflation for following protocol rules, and can be slashed for misbehavior. On top of consensus, the network runs oracle programs and a layer of nodes that fetch, aggregate, and report external data, so data requests are recorded and validated on the same chain that staking secures.

Programmable oracle network
SEDA is built to bring outside data on-chain. Builders deploy oracle programs that define exactly how a data feed is sourced and aggregated, rather than relying on a single fixed provider.
Cosmos SDK Layer 1
SEDA is its own sovereign chain built with the Cosmos SDK. The chain handles data settlement, security, and consensus, while connecting to many other networks that consume its data.
Cross-chain data
A single integration with SEDA can serve data to applications across different blockchains, so a feed deployed once can be read from many chains.
SEDA token
SEDA is the native token. It is staked to secure the network and is used to pay native fees for computation, data delivery, and deploying oracle programs, and it carries governance rights.
Ecosystem & usage
What SEDA is used for.
SEDA is used as data infrastructure for other applications rather than as a venue for DeFi itself, supplying price feeds and other external data to protocols across multiple chains.
Price and data feeds
Protocols request price feeds and other external data from SEDA to drive lending markets, derivatives, and other on-chain logic.
Custom oracle programs
Builders deploy oracle programs that define how a feed is sourced and aggregated, giving direct control over how data behaves.
Staking and validation
Token holders stake SEDA, either by running a validator or delegating, to secure the network and earn a share of issuance.
In Zypto App
Hold, swap and spend SEDA.
SEDA is integrated in Zypto App. Hold SEDA in self-custody, swap it to any supported asset, and use it across Zypto’s features.
SEDA is a Layer 1 blockchain built with the Cosmos SDK that works as a programmable oracle network. It lets applications on many chains request external data and have it settled and verified on the SEDA Chain. Its native token is SEDA.
Is SEDA a DeFi chain?
No. SEDA is data infrastructure rather than a venue for DeFi. Its role is to source and deliver external data to applications that run on other chains.
What is the SEDA token used for?
SEDA is the native token. It is staked to secure the network and pays native fees for computation, data delivery, and deploying oracle programs, and it is used in governance. It was formerly called the Flux token.
When did SEDA launch?
The SEDA Chain launched its mainnet in April 2024.
Can I hold SEDA in the Zypto App?
Not yet. SEDA isn't in Zypto App at the moment. You can hold it in any self-custodial wallet, and you can ask us to add SEDA using the "Request SEDA" button above.
