Walkman背後的電子先驅索尼啟動了自己的區塊鏈“Soneium”

Sony Block Solutions Labs (SBSL) 是索尼集團和新加坡 Startale Labs 的聯合項目，背後的團隊描述了 Soneium——技術上是以太坊之上的第 2 層網絡

Sony is launching "Soneium," a general-purpose blockchain platform. The layer-2 network on Ethereum is designed to support a diverse ecosystem of gaming, finance and entertainment apps.

索尼正在推出通用區塊鏈平台「Soneium」。以太坊上的第 2 層網路旨在支援遊戲、金融和娛樂應用程式的多元化生態系統。

The launch follows a four month-long test period that involved participation from 14 million wallets, according to Sony Block Solutions Labs (SBSL), a joint project between Sony Group and Singapore-based Startale Labs that is building the network.

索尼區塊解決方案實驗室(SBSL) 是索尼集團和正在建設該網路的新加坡Startale Labs 的聯合項目，該實驗室表示，此次發布是在為期四個月的測試期之後進行的，有1400 萬個錢包參與。

The chain aims to "bridge the gap between web2 and web3 audiences, especially for the creators, fans and community,” SBSL said in a statement shared with CoinDesk. “The platform prioritizes user-centric design, simplifying blockchain interactions and evolving web3 from a niche hobby into an everyday experience.”

SBSL 在與CoinDesk 分享的聲明中表示，該鏈旨在「彌合web2 和web3 受眾之間的差距，特別是對於創作者、粉絲和社群而言。」「該平台優先考慮以用戶為中心的設計，簡化區塊鏈交互，並將web3 從小眾愛好融入日常體驗中。

The team tapped Optimism's OP Stack to build out their network — a customizable framework that lets developers use optimistic rollup technology to transact on Ethereum quickly and at a low cost.

該團隊利用 Optimism 的 OP Stack 來建立他們的網絡，這是一個可自訂的框架，允許開發人員使用 Optimism Rollup 技術在以太坊上快速、低成本地進行交易。

Other companies using the OP Stack include the U.S. crypto exchanges Coinbase and Kraken, which use the tech to power their popular Base and Ink networks. Uniswap, the leading decentralized exchange, and Worldcoin, the Sam Altman-founded digital passport, also use OP Stack to power their layer-2 blockchain networks.

其他使用 OP Stack 的公司包括美國加密貨幣交易所 Coinbase 和 Kraken，它們使用該技術為其受歡迎的 Base 和 Ink 網路提供支援。 Uniswap（領先的去中心化交易所）和 Worldcoin（Sam Altman 創立的數位護照）也使用 OP Stack 為其第 2 層區塊鏈網路提供支援。

In many cases, the Optimism Foundation, which stewards the development of the OP Stack, has awarded grants to companies that agreed to use its tech. SBSL declined to comment on how many OP tokens they would receive as part of this deal, though previous reporting indicates that Optimism's grants can be substantial.

在許多情況下，負責 OP Stack 開發的 Optimism 基金會將向同意使用其技術的公司提供資助。 SBSL 拒絕評論他們將在這筆交易中獲得多少 OP 代幣，儘管先前的報告表明 Optimism 的贈款可能很大。

In August 2023, Coinbase received up to 118 million OP tokens — valued at $182 million at the time, or $192 million at today's prices — to use OP Stack for Base chain. CoinDesk also reported that Kraken received up to 25 million OP tokens, valued at roughly $100 million, when it agreed to use the OP Stack in January 2024 (now valued at $42 million).

2023 年 8 月，Coinbase 收到了多達 1.18 億個 OP 代幣（當時價值 1.82 億美元，以今天的價格計算為 1.92 億美元），以將 OP Stack 用於 Base 鏈。 CoinDesk 還報導稱，Kraken 在 2024 年 1 月同意使用 OP Stack 時收到了多達 2500 萬個 OP 代幣，價值約 1 億美元（目前價值 4200 萬美元）。

Similar grants are doled out by Optimism competitors like Polygon and Arbitrum, each of whom is dueling to build its own interconnected web of blockchains.

Polygon 和 Arbitrum 等 Optimism 競爭對手也提供了類似的資助，它們都在努力建立自己的互聯區塊鏈網路。
