+ +Sonic emphasizes rapid transaction processing, low costs, and scalability, +making it an attractive choice for both developers and enterprises. Unlike +traditional blockchain systems, Sonic’s Lachesis consensus delivers near-instant +finality and high throughput without sacrificing decentralization. + +## Mainnet and testnet + +SettleMint supports the **Sonic Mainnet** and the **Sonic Testnet**. + +The Mainnet is the primary public Sonic network, where real-value transactions +take place.

+ +# The basics + +Soneium is fully compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), allowing +developers to port their Ethereum-based dapps effortlessly. Beyond scalability, +Soneium prioritizes decentralization and user empowerment. The network is +secured by a distributed set of validators and governed through a decentralized +autonomous organization (DAO), ensuring no single party holds control over its +operations. + +## Mainnet and testnet + +SettleMint supports the **Soneium Mainnet** and the **Soneium Testnet**. + +The Mainnet serves as Soneium’s primary public blockchain, where real-value +transactions occur, requiring the SON token for fees. The Testnet, on the other +hand, is a sandbox environment for developers to test and experiment without +financial risk, using valueless test tokens. + +You can think of the Testnet as a sandbox for developers and the Mainnet as the +official production network. This setup is similar to the concept of production +versus staging servers in software development. + +## Consensus mechanism + +Soneium employs a hybrid consensus model combining **optimistic rollups** with a +**coordinator node**. Optimistic rollups assume transaction validity by default, +processing them off-chain for efficiency, while enabling challenges if fraud is +detected. The coordinator node batches transactions and submits them to the +network, though it remains untrusted—any validator can dispute invalid batches. + +This design ensures Soneium is scalable, secure, and decentralized. However, it +may involve a withdrawal delay (typically seven days) and relies on a +centralized coordinator for transaction ordering, a trade-off for its +performance gains. + +More information can be found on the +[official Soneium website](https://soneium.org/). diff --git a/content/img/blockchain-logos/soneium-logo.png b/content/img/blockchain-logos/soneium-logo.png index fa0908ba..20b7ea2b 100644 Binary files a/content/img/blockchain-logos/soneium-logo.png and b/content/img/blockchain-logos/soneium-logo.png differ diff --git a/content/img/blockchain-logos/sonic-logo.png b/content/img/blockchain-logos/sonic-logo.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..61a1680c Binary files /dev/null and b/content/img/blockchain-logos/sonic-logo.png differ
