Continue to About ↓- What it does
- Sonic is a public, EVM-compatible layer-1 blockchain for deploying smart contracts in Solidity or Vyper, marketed for low-cost, fast settlement.
More detail
- It includes a native Ethereum bridge (Sonic Gateway) and Fee Monetization, which routes 90% of an app's network fees back to its builder.
- Relevant to DeFi and Web3 teams building on an Ethereum-style toolchain.
- Best for
- DeFi and Web3 developers, including small or solo teams, who want EVM compatibility, low per-transaction costs and a fee revenue-share model for apps.
More detail
- Ethereum-native teams that can use a native bridge from Ethereum and standard tooling.
- Pricing
- No subscription or listing fee is published.
More detail
- Costs are usage-based: network gas averages about $0.001 per transaction (a marketing average, not a guarantee), and 10% of fees go to validators while 90% is routed to FeeM for app builders.
- A Gateway Fast Lane fee exists to trigger an immediate heartbea
- Main limitation
- Buyers who need independently verified throughput, guaranteed per-transaction pricing, or published, verifiable third-party audit reports.

What it helps with
- High gas costs and slow settlement on Ethereum-style chains are addressed with low average transaction costs and claimed
- Developers lack a built-in way to capture app-generated network fees; FeeM returns 90% of an app's fees to its builder.
- Onboarding assets from Ethereum is cumbersome; the native Gateway provides a bridge.
- Ethereum toolchain lock-in; full EVM compatibility lets existing Solidity and Vyper code and tools deploy without a rewr
Capabilities
A practical view of what is available and where limitations apply.
| Offering | Available | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| EVM compatibility | Yes | 100% EVM compatible, supporting Solidity and Vyper and standard Ethereum tooling. |
| Claimed throughput | Limited | Homepage claims ~400k TPS, but the mainnet launch announcement cited 10,000 verifiable TPS; the higher figure is unverified marketing. |
| Sub-second finality | Yes | First-party claim of sub-second confirmation times. |
| Fee Monetization (90% to builders) | Yes | FeeM routes 90% of an app's network fees to the builder and 10% to validators; unclaimed rewards do not expire. |
| Sonic Gateway bridge | Yes | Native bridge from Ethereum with batching heartbeats; automatic fail-safe unlock if heartbeats stop for two weeks. |
| Staking S token | Yes | Stake S to secure the network and earn rewards. |
| Gas subsidies and bundled transactions | Yes | Release v2.2 features include paying users' gas and atomic multi-transaction bundles. |
| Third-party audit reports | Unknown | Homepage shows an 'Audited by' line with truncated logos; specific reports were not verifiable from the evidence. |
| Independent reviews | Unknown | No independent review or customer discussion was captured. |
