About Blockchains

About Sonic

Sonic is the highest-performing EVM layer-1 blockchain, combining speed, incentives, and world-class infrastructure, powering the next generation of DeFi applications. The chain provides 400,000 TPS and sub-second finality.

By combining a novel consensus mechanism with full EVM compatibility, Sonic delivers unparalleled speed, security, and scalability. The S token is Sonic's native token, used for paying transaction fees, staking, running validators, and participating in governance.

About Ethereum

Ethereum emerges as a decentralized, open-source blockchain platform empowering developers to craft and deploy smart contracts alongside dApps. Pioneering the smart contract concept, Ethereum enables self-executing agreements with terms directly encoded into its blockchain, eliminating the need for intermediaries. Additionally, Ethereum serves as a hub for the creation and exchange of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) and various digital assets. Its intrinsic cryptocurrency, Ether (ETH), facilitates network transactions and incentivizes miners to uphold network security. Ethereum's evolution to Ethereum 2.0 introduces a proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanism, aiming to enhance scalability and energy efficiency.
