Sonic SVM, a blockchain firm focusing on gaming, has launched a new Web3 game on TikTok.
By integrating a wallet straight into TikTok, the game SonicX streamlines the Web3 enrollment process and lets players discover blockchain without the typical complications.
In the straightforward “clicker” game SonicX, users tap the screen to gather digital rings kept on the blockchain.
These rings can potentially yield benefits, just like cryptocurrencies and NFTs. The game capitalizes on the success of comparable “tap-to-earn” games that have gained traction on Telegram, such as Hamster Kombat and Notcoin.
SonicX’s inbuilt wallet is its primary feature; it lets TikTok users log in with their current accounts instead of requiring them to remember complex passwords or private keys.
This method simplifies the onboarding procedure and facilitates participation for those unfamiliar with blockchain technology.
As they progress through the game, users can get more incentives and invite friends to play, which spreads the game virally.
More than 120,000 TikTok users have signed up since SonicX launched last month, making it one of the most successful Web3 integrations inside a popular app like TikTok.
This may indicate a rise in interest in decentralized applications, particularly from users who are new to blockchain.
Sonic SVM and Solana
Sonic SVM wants to establish a blockchain gaming niche on the Solana network. Solana is well-liked in decentralized finance because of its speed and reduced transaction costs.
It has yet to gain the lead in the blockchain gaming industry, where networks like Immutable X are dominant.
With its tools, Sonic SVM hopes to change this by enabling game creators to expand on Solana. According to the announcement, these tools let developers build Layer-2 rollups, or game-specific networks, that can execute numerous transactions off the main blockchain more quickly and cheaply.
