Sonic SVM SONIC / Sonic SVM

### Project Information #### Project Introduction and Highlights

What Is Sonic SVM(SONIC)?

Sonic is the first SVM network extension to launch on Solana, for games and applications.

Powering Web3 TikTok App Layer - onboarding next billion users.

Built with Sonic HyperGrid, a framework for orchestrating optimistic Solana rollups.

#### Official Partnerships - Ecosystem Integrations: Completed partnerships and integrations with over 20 ecosystem partners on Sonic, including names like Backpack, OKX Wallet, Metaplex, Pyth, Solayer, and more. For more details, check out the integration list.

- Gaming Studio Collaborations: Signed contracts with over 10 game studios, such as Lowlife Forms, Rage Effect, BR1: INFINITE, Zeebit, and DeFi Land. See more details on our game studio collaborations.

#### Identified Pain Points - High transaction costs, congestion on Solana, and lack of gaming-focused infrastructure. - Scaling Issues: Solana sometimes face unexpected on-chain traffic due to a surge in consumer demand and congests. Millions of users on Solana need SVM environment to settle their transactions. - Liquidity: dApps need Solana’s liquidity but need to have its own rollup to alleviate congestion & compute unit limitations. - Solana lacks consumer facing asset diversity: Solana has been all about memes and DeFi, but not too many apps. Millions of existing gamers that have crypto exposure do not have new assets to trade / games to play on Solana due to lack of gaming communities, launchpads, developer tooling, and Go-to-market support for consumer-facing apps. Memecoins are also starting to seek host environment (games) of their assets! - GTM support for consumer apps on Solana: Launching assets is not all about technical design. Often times Solana consumer projects do not have the necessary growth channels and expertise to acquire users despite having an amazing product.

#### Proposed Solutions and Relevance HyperGrid technology reduces costs by up to 100x, supports horizontal scaling, and enables fast transactions for gaming apps.

#### Target Audience Gamers, developers, and blockchain enthusiasts.
