About the Project: Yei Finance is a decentralized, non-custodial money market protocol built on the Sei network, offering innovative and flexible financial solutions. Users benefit from competitive yield, can access over-collateralized or flash loans, and manage risk with advanced tools—all leveraging Sei’s speed and efficiency.
