Sonic SVM has announced an airdrop of SONIC tokens on the Solana blockchain for users of its tap-to-earn game, SonicX, which is integrated into TikTok.
SonicX has gained popularity since its launch in October, attracting over two million users. The game allows players to earn in-game items and climb the rankings through simple tapping mechanics, without the need for a crypto wallet or complex transactions.
Tap-to-earn gaming has seen significant growth this year, with games like Hamster Kombat and Notcoin engaging millions of players and rewarding them with token airdrops.
SonicX plans to partner with TikTok content creators and run targeted advertisements to enhance user engagement. The game also offers a seamless onboarding experience, automatically generating a wallet for users.
Sonic SVM aims to become a significant player in blockchain-based gaming on social media platforms. The company has broader ambitions for its layer-2 gaming chain built on Solana and plans to develop a dedicated TikTok chain through its SonicX app layer. Sonic SVM has also partnered with Mahjong Verse to bring its Mahjong123 game to the SonicX app layer, expanding its gaming ecosystem.
