Sonic X is the the first TikTok Web3 Applayer to go live, with a potential to tap into TikTok’s 1 Billion MAU
New York, 7 November 2024— Sonic SVM is thrilled to announce that its Web3 Applayer, Sonic X has reached a major milestone of 1 million KYC-verified users, marking a pivotal achievement in Web3 adoption through TikTok. This milestone underscores Sonic’s commitment to building robust infrastructure and a user-friendly distribution platform, Sonic X, which enables TikTok users to effortlessly engage in the decentralized web and explore blockchain-powered applications.
Through Sonic X, the TikTok native game built on Sonic SVM, users can easily discover and interact with a wide range of Web3 games, all within the familiar environment of TikTok. Sonic X team has fully utilized account abstraction, creating a seamless, simplified onboarding for non crypto-native users. On the backend, a Solana wallet is automatically generated – but for users, they do not need to leave the TikTok app, logging in with their TikTok account to play the games offered on Sonic X.
“Achieving 1 million KYC-verified users is a testament to Sonic’s dedication to bridging the gap between mainstream social media and Web3. Sonic X was designed with accessibility and engagement in mind, and we’re proud to have created an experience that brings the benefits of blockchain technology to a large, active audience on TikTok.” said Chris Zhu, Co-founder and CEO of Sonic.
The Applayer’s unique features, including an aggregation page for Web3 games, an interactive leaderboard for Sonic X’s flagship tap-to-earn game, and a task page where users can complete activities for rewards, have all contributed to this substantial growth. These tools foster a rich, rewarding environment for users, positioning Sonic as a leader in both Web3 gaming and social media engagement. Sonic has recently announced the first game to launch on Sonic X to tap into the TikTok Applayer ecosystem.
With this milestone, Sonic SVM reinforces its commitment to innovation and user engagement, paving the way for a broader adoption of Web3 and decentralized technologies. Sonic continues to build upon this success, with further plans to enhance the Applayer’s capabilities and integrate additional applications that empower users in the Web3 space.
