Sonic Labs 宣佈在主網推出新的 L1 區塊鏈，該區塊鏈與 EVM 相容，並為應用程式開發人員提供收費貨幣化功能

Sonic Labs 是 Fantom 基金會的更名品牌，該基金會先前負責開發 Opera 區塊鏈，該區塊鏈以 FTM 作為其原生代幣。

Sonic Labs, formerly known as the Fantom Foundation, has announced the mainnet launch of its new L1 blockchain, Sonic. The network is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine and boasts a unique fee monetization feature for application developers.

Sonic Labs（前身為 Fantom 基金會）宣佈在主網上啟動其新的 L1 區塊鏈 Sonic。該網路與以太坊虛擬機相容，並為應用程式開發人員提供獨特的費用貨幣化功能。

While Sonic Labs is a rebrand of the entity behind the Opera blockchain, which has FTM as its native token, the newly rolled-out network implements several upgrades, including faster transaction finality and a new token.

雖然 Sonic Labs 是 Opera 區塊鏈背後實體的品牌重塑，該實體以 FTM 作為其原生代幣，但新推出的網路實現了多項升級，包括更快的交易最終確定和新代幣。

“Sonic represents the culmination of over two and a half years of hard work by the technical team, who optimized the entire execution stack of the Opera Chain, as well as many other improvements such as to the database/storage. This makes operating nodes far easier and cheaper,” wrote Sonic Labs CEO Michael Kong in an X post early Wednesday.

「Sonic 代表了技術團隊兩年半多辛勤工作的結晶，他們優化了 Opera Chain 的整個執行堆疊，以及資料庫/儲存等許多其他改進。這使得操作節點變得更加容易和便宜，」Sonic Labs 首席執行官 Michael Kong 在周三早些時候的 X 帖子中寫道。

On a 1:1 basis, FTM holders can exchange their tokens for S, Sonic’s native cryptocurrency, which has several roles within the network, including paying for transaction fees, running validators, and participating in governance, according to Wednesday’s announcement.

根據週三的公告，FTM 持有者可以按照 1:1 的比例將其代幣兌換為 Sonic 的原生加密貨幣 S，Sonic 在網路中具有多種作用，包括支付交易費用、運行驗證器和參與治理。

Sonic was created to succeed Opera because “the technological advancements we achieved with our Sonic technology could not be fully integrated into Opera through a simple soft-fork upgrade. Therefore, we decided to launch an entirely new network with a new token,” according to a September 2024 blog post.

Sonic 的創建是為了繼承 Opera，因為「我們透過 Sonic 技術實現的技術進步無法透過簡單的軟分叉升級完全整合到 Opera 中。因此，我們決定使用新代幣啟動一個全新的網絡，」2024 年 9 月的一篇部落格文章寫道。

The Sonic blockchain, which aims to be the fastest settlement layer for digital assets, has executed nearly 304,000 total transactions and boasts roughly 24,000 unique wallet addresses at press time.

Sonic 區塊鏈旨在成為最快的數位資產結算層，截至發稿時已執行近 304,000 筆交易，並擁有約 24,000 個唯一錢包地址。

For those developing applications, Sonic has a fee monetization feature that rewards developers with up to 90% of network fees generated from the application. “This allows you [developers] to focus on scaling your app and growing your user base without the constant pressure of fundraising or securing additional financing,” according to Sonic’s mainnet announcement.

對於開發應用程式的人來說，Sonic 具有費用貨幣化功能，可以獎勵開發者高達 90% 的應用程式產生的網路費用。根據 Sonic 的主網公告，“這使您[開發人員]能夠專注於擴展您的應用程式並擴大您的用戶群，而無需持續承受籌款或獲得額外融資的壓力。”

Max Good, an investment research analyst at venture firm Decentral Park Capital, told Unchained, “I think Sonic’s fee monetization approach could be a very interesting way to incentivize and onboard developers, and it already supports [programming languages] Solidity and Vyper, which means it will be a familiar environment for most smart contract devs.”

創投公司Decentral Park Capital 的投資研究分析師Max Good 告訴Unchained，「我認為Sonic 的費用貨幣化方法可能是一種非常有趣的激勵和吸引開發人員的方式，而且它已經支持[程式語言] Solidity 和Vyper，這意味著對於大多數智能合約開發人員來說，這將是一個熟悉的環境。

Aave Chan Initiative, a service provider for the largest lending protocol, posted early Wednesday to the platform’s governance forum a temperature check on whether to deploy Aave V3 on Sonic, citing the new blockchain’s fee monetization feature for applications as a potential and additional source of income for Aave.

最大借貸協議的服務提供者Aave Chan Initiative 週三稍早在該平台的治理論壇上發布了一份關於是否在Sonic 上部署Aave V3 的溫度檢查，並指出新的區塊鏈應用程式的費用貨幣化功能是潛在的額外收入來源對艾維來說。

Good also speculated about potential new decentralized finance primitives from Sonic Labs’ CTO Andre Cronje, who is an influential figure in the DeFi space, having helped build Yearn and introduce a widely used tokenomics design named ve(3,3).

Good 也從Sonic Labs 的技術長Andre Cronje 那裡推測了潛在的新的去中心化金融原語，他是DeFi 領域的一位有影響力的人物，幫助建立了Yearn 並引入了一種廣泛使用的代幣經濟學設計，名為ve(3,3)。

Airdrop to incentivize network activity

空投以激勵網路活動

In a bid to attract crypto users, developers, and liquidity providers, Sonic Labs has implemented a points system as part of the network’s airdrop of approximately 190.5 million S tokens.

為了吸引加密貨幣用戶、開發者和流動性供應商，Sonic Labs 實施了積分系統，作為網路空投約 1.905 億個 S 代幣的一部分。

Given that the FTM token is currently trading at $1.22 and FTM holders can swap for S tokens on a 1:1 basis, the total amount allotted to Sonic’s airdrop is valued at roughly $232 million.

鑑於 FTM 代幣目前的交易價格為 1.22 美元，並且 FTM 持有者可以以 1:1 的比例兌換 S 代幣，分配給 Sonic 空投的總金額約為 2.32 億美元。

“Designed to reward meaningful user engagement within the Sonic ecosystem, these points incentivize a wide range of activities, such as early adoption, long-term loyalty, asset ownership, and active participation with apps across the platform,” Sonic’s governance documentation states.

Sonic 的治理文件指出：“這些積分旨在獎勵 Sonic 生態系統中有意義的用戶參與，激勵各種活動，例如早期採用、長期忠誠度、資產所有權以及跨平台應用程式的積極參與。”

Earned by bridging assets onto the Sonic blockchain, maintaining liquidity within the ecosystem, and deploying cryptocurrencies on whitelisted applications, Sonic’s points are distributed across multiple seasons, with the first one ending around June 2024.

Sonic 的積分透過將資產橋接至Sonic 區塊鏈、維持生態系統內的流動性以及在白名單應用程式上部署加密貨幣來獲得，該積分分佈在多個季節中，第一個季節於2024 年6月左右結束。

While some are looking to stress-test the network, others are excited to start transacting on Sonic because of the airdrop.

雖然有些人希望對網路進行壓力測試，但有些人則因為空投而興奮地開始在 Sonic 上進行交易。

L1 space gets increasingly populated

L1空間越來越擁擠

The L1 ecosystem is a competitive space, with several blockchains having already launched their mainnet, including Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Aptos, Sui, and Ton. The number of L1 blockchains stands at over 240, according to market data from CoinGecko.

L1 生態系統是一個競爭激烈的空間，多個區塊鏈已經推出了主網，包括以太坊、Solana、Avalanche、Aptos、Sui 和 Ton。根據 CoinGecko 的市場數據，L1 區塊鏈的數量超過 240 個。

Hyperliquid, an L1 dedicated to trading perpetual derivatives, recently conducted its token generation event, while other L1s are expected to roll out their mainnet in 2025, including Glue, Monad, and Berachain.

Hyperliquid 是一家致力於永續衍生性商品交易的 L1，最近舉辦了代幣生成活動，而其他 L1 預計將於 2025 年推出其主網，包括 Glue、Monad 和 Berachain。

“The big question is who can build the next [generation] ecosystem of sticky [decentralized applications] to gravitate users,” added Good, of Decentral Park Capital.

Decentral Park Capital 的 Good 補充道：“最大的問題是誰能夠構建下一代粘性（去中心化應用程序）生態系統來吸引用戶。”
