Buzz around Fantom's transition to Sonic has sent the FTM token on a 40% climb this month.
Sonic is a fully EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain that combines the speed and scalability of an L1 chain with a custom Layer-2 bridge connected to Ethereum. This dual-layer design offers low-cost transactions, fast processing times, and enhanced security, making Sonic a hybrid solution between traditional L1 and L2 chains.
Its blockchain architecture supports over 2,000 transactions per second (TPS) with sub-second confirmation times, a significant improvement from Fantom’s previous 200 TPS on the Opera chain.
Take a look at our newest Bankless Guide with all of the Sonic details 👇
