Sonic Testnet Growth on Solana
Sonic, a layer 2 gaming network on Solana, has achieved significant milestones with its testnet reaching 1 million monthly active addresses and processing over 600 million transactions. The platform, powered by Solana’s virtual machine, offers a unique gaming experience different from other platforms like Fantom’s Sonic upgrade.
Sonic’s Focus on Organic Community Growth
During the first phase of the testnet, known as Sonic Origins, the platform saw impressive user engagement and demand, showcasing the potential for growth of an organic community around Sonic. Co-founder Chris Zhu highlighted the importance of user experience and community building as Sonic prepares to launch as one of the first SVMs on Solana.
Introduction of Sonic Frontier and Expansion of Network
Following the success of Sonic Origins, the platform has launched Sonic Frontier, the second phase of the testnet, which aims to onboard more games and partners. This phase will also integrate existing Solana protocols, providing users with a wider range of decentralized applications to interact with on Sonic SVM. Additionally, more validators will join the network during this phase, leveraging HyperGrid’s shared validator network for transaction finalization on Solana.
