Sonic SVM, the team behind the TikTok tap-to-earn game SonicX, is making waves with their upcoming airdrop of SONIC tokens on the Solana blockchain. If you’re a player, this is exciting news!
The game features graphics inspired by the beloved Sega character, Sonic the Hedgehog. However, it's important to note that it’s not officially licensed. Players tap a button on their screens to earn in-game items, buy power-ups, and refer friends to climb the rankings.
SonicX has quickly gained popularity. It hit one million users just over a month after its launch in October. Since then, they’ve added another million players. The onboarding process is simple and user-friendly. You don’t need to create a crypto wallet or sign any transactions to start playing.
This year, the tap-to-earn genre has really taken off in Web3 gaming. Games like Hamster Kombat and Notcoin have attracted millions of players. They reward users with token airdrops through The Open Network (TON). At its peak, Notcoin’s airdrop was valued at nearly $3 billion!
As for the SONIC token, a snapshot hasn’t been taken yet. This means that new users who join SonicX on TikTok can still qualify for the upcoming airdrop, which is set for January. To get ready, all you need to do is log in through TikTok. The system will automatically generate a wallet for you in the background.
Sonic SVM operates on a Solana layer-2 network designed specifically for blockchain games. Currently, it hosts over 20 gaming and NFT projects, with about 750,000 active addresses daily.
Looking ahead, the project aims to create a TikTok chain through its SonicX app layer. This will allow other games to integrate and distribute through TikTok. Recently, they announced a partnership with Mahjong Verse to bring their Mahjong123 game to the SonicX platform.
