As a seasoned crypto investor with a knack for recognizing potential in innovative blockchain projects, I find Sonic’s recent milestones nothing short of impressive. Having closely followed Solana’s growth and its potential as a gaming platform, I am genuinely excited about Sonic’s progress.
In simpler terms, the gaming network called Sonic, which operates at layer 2 on Solana, reported that it reached one million monthly active users and processed over half a billion transactions.
The L2 represents the initial gaming platform powered by Solana’s (SOL) virtual machine, setting it apart from Fantom’s (FTM) Sonic update.
According to information provided to crypto.news on August 8th, Sonic SVM reported that the initial stage of their test network surpassed one million active user addresses. In this phase, a total of over 600 million transactions were processed. Games like Rage Effect, JogoJogo, and LowLifeForms were among those where users engaged during the first part of the Sonic Origins test network.
The latest testnet milestone comes after Sonic Testnet Odyssey went live in June.
Sonic eyes organic growth
In my role as a researcher, I had the chance to leverage our testnet to fine-tune Sonic’s performance in terms of throughput and network stability. Simultaneously, this platform served as an avenue for users to evaluate Sonic’s gaming and Web3 experience, offering valuable insights into its usability and functionality.
“Chris Zhu, co-founder of Sonic Origins, expressed enthusiasm about the strong user interest shown in the platform, particularly in terms of user engagement. He is eager to witness the real deployment and growth of a natural community centered around Sonic as it launches as one of the initial SVMs (Solana-based Vertical Applications) on the Solana network.”
In simple terms, we’ve moved into the second stage of our testnet called Sonic Frontier. This phase is currently active and will welcome additional games and partners. Moreover, Frontier extends our network to incorporate existing Solana protocols, allowing users a wider range of opportunities to engage with decentralized applications on Sonic SVM.
During this phase, additional validators are scheduled to connect to the network as well. They will utilize HyperGrid’s communal validator network to confirm grid transactions within the Solana system. HyperGrid is a scalability solution that facilitates parallel transaction processing and empowers developers to create and launch new games on Solana.
After successfully securing $12 million during its Series A funding round in June, Sonic is planning to officially debut its main network once the Frontier test network has been fully completed and finalized.
