Odaily Planet Daily reports that the original Fantom team’s Layer 1 public chain Sonic states that it plans to promote the upgrade of the native token S’s value accumulation mechanism through self-built and acquired core protocol applications and infrastructure, and hints at potential mergers and acquisitions in the future.
In a recent statement, Sonic Labs pointed out that the team will focus on key infrastructure that intersects token utility, liquidity, and use cases, reducing value outflow from the ecosystem application layer through internalization and commercialization of core economic activities. At the same time, Sonic will remain open and permissionless for developers.
The team stated that the previous model relying on “user growth—transaction increase—gas consumption rise—token value recirculation” has become unsustainable. With the development of Rollups, modular architectures, and high-performance public chains, the increase in blockchain space supply has led to continuous compression of transaction fees, and relying solely on gas revenue is no longer sufficient to support long-term value for Layer 1.
Sonic is an EVM-compatible high-performance public chain aiming to achieve near-instant confirmation and extremely high throughput. It is currently attempting to reshape the value capture path of Layer 1 through deeper ecosystem integration.
