In mid-December, Sonic Labs unveiled the mainnet of Sonic, an EVM-compatible Layer-1 (L1) blockchain platform. Sonic provides developers with robust infrastructure and enhanced incentives, delivering a blockchain environment optimized for scalability and efficiency.
Sonic aims to be an EVM-based L1 platform that supports the next generation of DeFi applications by combining speed, incentives, and world-class infrastructure. Notably, it boasts the ability to process 10,000 transactions per second (TPS). With the launch of the Sonic mainnet, Fantom (FTM) tokens are officially migrated to Sonic and the newly introduced S token.
S Token serves as Sonic's native token and can be used for various purposes such as paying transaction fees, staking, validator operations, and participating in governance.
Sonic Labs provides a seamless process to upgrade FTM tokens to S tokens at a 1:1 ratio through the MySonic Upgrade Portal.
In line with this, D’CENT Wallet has also completed its integration with the Sonic mainnet.
This post explains in detail how users holding Fantom tokens in their D’CENT wallets can seamlessly migrate to S tokens.
The simplest and most efficient way to migrate FTM tokens from the Fantom network to the Sonic network is by using the D’CENT Wallet.
The D’CENT Wallet supports both the Fantom and the newly integrated Sonic networks, eliminating the need for additional wallets like MetaMask during the migration process.
Here’s how to complete the migration:
(Screenshots are taken from a test version of the app and may differ from the actual app interface.)
Step 1: Create a Sonic Account
Step 2: Access the Migration Portal
Step 3: Connect Your Wallet
Step 4: Swap FTM for S Tokens
The entire process takes only a few minutes, allowing you to easily receive S tokens on the Sonic network.
Remember the following timeline for a smooth transition:
To boost liquidity and support the Sonic network ecosystem, Sonic Labs is introducing a $200 million S token airdrop along with a point system. Participants can earn Sonic points by holding whitelisted assets or participating in liquidity pools within the ecosystem. These points are distributed as NFT positions across multiple seasons, ensuring long-term sustainability.
The first season started with the launch of the Sonic network and will run until June 2025. Passive points can be earned by holding eligible assets in a D’CENT Wallet.
For more details on earning points and participating, refer to Sonic Labs’ official blog.
With the user-friendly D’CENT Wallet and the steps outlined above, you can easily participate in the Sonic network ecosystem. The transition to the Sonic mainnet and S tokens marks a significant advancement in blockchain technology, providing a solid and dynamic platform for both developers and users.
Experience the Sonic mainnet with your D’CENT Wallet today!
