Sonic chain
Overview
Sonic is an EVM layer-1 blockchain that positions itself as the highest-performing EVM chain, advertising 400,000 transactions per second and sub-second finality, with transactions confirmed and irreversible in under a second. Its native asset is the S token, used to pay transaction fees, to stake, to run validators and to vote in governance. Sonic's most distinctive economic feature is fee monetisation: developers can earn 90% of the network fees generated by their own applications, inverting the usual arrangement in which sequencer or validator revenue accrues entirely to the chain. The network runs at chain ID 146, with its public RPC at rpc.soniclabs.com and its block explorer at sonicscan.org. The chain is explicitly oriented toward DeFi applications, combining throughput, developer incentives and infrastructure tooling.
Within the DeFi Intel graph, Sonic connects to 30 tracked entities, most strongly to USD Coin, Morpho Blue, Pendle.
