sonic isn’t just talking about
bridging tradfi & crypto
they’re actually wiring the rails in real time.
key points from the vote “bridging crypto & tradfi in the us” by @SonicLabs :
up to $50m etf allocation (bitgo custody + $10b+ aum partner)
up to $100m nasdaq pipe to acquire $s (3y lock)
150m $s to sonic usa llc for compliance, buildout, distribution
on-chain discipline:
tokens minted only when needed, tracked publicly
50% gas fee burn per tx offsets issuance
labs holds <1% supply → governance checks institutional moves
why this matters:
distribution: etf + pipe = regulated access for retail + institutions
liquidity: programmatic demand + long locks ease sell pressure
compliance: us entity anchors listings & custody
momentum is there:
trading vol jumped $3.1b → $4.94b (july)
tvl nearing $700m
2m+ $s revenue routed to builders
targets: ~400k tps, <1s finality, pectra-compatible testnet 2.1 live soon
execution ahead:
sonic summit 2025, sep 29–30, singapore
kaito x sonic refresh: 2 snapshots, fnfts → $s, top 100 get 25% boost (first = sep 18)
community sentiment: strongly supportive, with debates on dilution vs distribution.
the real question: will etf flows + pipe liquidity create a self-sustaining flywheel for $s, or will regs choke near-term upside????
