/intro
What is the Soneium ecosystem?
Soneium is a public Layer 2 blockchain built on Ethereum, developed by Sony Block Solutions Labs (a joint venture between Sony and Startale Labs).
It’s based on the OP Stack from Optimism and is part of the Superchain ecosystem.
Project goal: Bring Web3 into everyday life through Sony products—games, music, movies, and fintech. The platform targets developers and creators, offering tools to build dApps, NFTs, and fan engagement experiences. Under the Soneium Spark program, 32 projects were selected from over 1,700 applications.
Technically, Soneium delivers high throughput, low fees, and full EVM compatibility. During its four-month testnet, it processed over 50 million transactions and deployed 12,600 smart contracts.
Partners include Chainlink, Circle, Astar Network, and others. Sony plans to integrate Soneium with its own services like Sony Music, Sony Pictures, and PlayStation.
Soneium is an ambitious Web3 initiative from Sony aimed at the mass market. However, concerns over transparency and governance could undermine community trust.
