Sony Group and Startale have launched Soneium, an Ethereum Layer 2 ecosystem set to change the blockchain world. Soneium aims to blend Web2 and Web3 into a user-friendly and creative platform.
Goals to introduce Soneium
Soneium’s goal is to build an open internet that breaks through cultural, social, and economic barriers. It is guided by three key values: Emotion, Creativity, and Mainstream Adoption, aiming to make blockchain technology accessible and valuable to everyone.
Soneium focuses on inclusivity and making creativity accessible to everyone, aiming to inspire passion and innovation in users worldwide.
Soneium will use zkEVM technology with help from Astar Network. zkEVM keeps transactions private and efficient by not showing detailed information.
Soneium wants to make blockchain technology a regular part of daily life with support from Sony. Once the testnet launches, developers will have access to guides and tools to explore and use Soneium’s features.
Soneium works as a Layer 2 solution on Ethereum, which means it helps Ethereum handle more transactions and lowers transaction fees. It uses the Op Stack from the Optimism Foundation, so it is fully compatible with Ethereum’s technology.
This setup helps developers to create and launch applications more easily. It includes a testnet that works like the mainnet, a full set of development tools, and detailed guides. The platform also provides dedicated support to encourage new ideas and attract talented developers.
As Soneium gets ready to launch its mainnet, it plans to offer fresh and exciting applications in areas such as entertainment, gaming, and finance.
