Fantom Foundation's Sonic upgrade is set to revolutionize the blockchain landscape by processing over 2,000 transactions per second (TPS), significantly reducing storage costs, and enhancing security. The upgrade promises to unlock the future of high-frequency decentralized applications (DApps) and decentralized finance (DeFi). Sonic will feature 10,000 TPS, sub-1 second finality, and a Layer 2 bridge. Additionally, 90% of gas fees will be returned to applications, and the chain will offer incentives at the chain level. The Sonic Foundation will also manage a $500 million treasury. The upgrade aims to provide the best Ethereum tooling and integrations while operating much faster. Andre Crojne is involved in the project, which is more than just a rebranding.
