Sonic Labs has made a crucial announcement for users who have been participating in its Sonic Shard NFT collection campaign.
On December 1, 2024, the platform will take a snapshot of all wallets holding the complete set of six Sonic Shards. This event will allow eligible users to mint an exclusive NFT once the mainnet is live. This is part of a larger plan that will culminate in an airdrop of 200 million S tokens, of which 190.5 million will be distributed among participants who have accumulated the full set of six NFTs.
Sonic Shards Can Be Obtained on Secondary Marketplaces
The Shards have been collected through a series of weekly challenges, and users had to complete these tasks to secure the six required pieces. Additionally, users can acquire them through secondary marketplaces, such as PaintSwap, as long as they have them before the snapshot date. Once gathered, they can be combined into a unique special NFT that will serve as the key to participate in the S token airdrop.
The Mainnet Launch is Approaching
On the other hand, the company has pointed out that this snapshot will also be very important in the development of its platform. The company is preparing for the launch of its mainnet at the end of 2024, which will include a new Layer 2 bridge to Ethereum, allowing the platform to connect with a larger user base and access Ethereum liquidity.
With the underlying technology based on HyperGrid, a Rollup scaling solution, Sonic is optimizing its performance and transactions without compromising security or decentralization. Furthermore, compatibility with the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) ensures that the platform aligns with the Solana ecosystem and its community of developers and gamers
