Sonic's FDV is 1/39th of Hyperliquid ⚠️That won’t last long Here’s why FlyingTulip won’t just flip the script, but it will put Hyperliquid at existential risk 👇 Hyperliquid L1 is mainly built around: ✯ Fully on-chain order book ✯ Vaults for copy trading ✯ 200K ops/sec for perpetuals But remove the DEX ❌ And for the most part, what's left is a high performance chain still searching for broader utility In contrast, Sonic and FlyingTulip are designed as a system: chain and protocol reinforcing each other, yet strong enough to stand alone @SonicLabs + FlyingTulip = a literal beast ✯ One AMM for spot, perps, options, lending ✯ Dynamic LTV model adjusts in real time ✯ More LP revenue streams ✯ SonicCS 2.0: lightning fast to support ✯ 90% $S fee sharing with devs → real ecosystem flywheel There’s one more thing FlyingTulip gets right: It was built with institutions in mind ✯ Integrated OFAC screening ✯ Optional tax-reporting support ✯ Tools for both retail and institutional flows Hyperliquid, by contrast, is optimized for raw speed but has no native compliance layer That limits its ceiling with regulated capital On the user side: 🔸LPs on Hyperliquid: Provide liquidity to vaults, earn from isolated yield mechanisms 🔸LPs on FlyingTulip: Trade + lend in the same pool Earn from fees, leverage, lending, and options Capital works harder risk is smarter ✅ Cronje always had his eyes on Hyperliquid This isn’t to takeaway from HL’s tech, team, or community, all of which are legit But momentum always shifts toward platforms that compound utility That makes it hard for DEX focused chains to stay competitive

Make no mistake, CT does not move Sonic’s price An invisible game is being played on-chain between whales and @SonicLabs angel investors: 🔸 Signum Capital, one of Sonic’s angel investors, has offloaded 2M $S (via Binance) in the last 7 days. It also previously dumped another 1M three months ago 🔸On the bright side, Galaxy Digital just acquired 3.5M $S from Binance through a complex web of wallets in the last 48 hours 🔸 Meanwhile, multiple whales are loading up: → an anon whale swept 4.8 M $S from Binance over the past week → another one hauled 3.5 M $S off Binance in two transactions in the last 48 hours These guys aren't sitting on CT tweeting. The real moves usually happen where few are actually looking

TVL & $S price down post airdrop S1 = Expected ⚠️ The unexpected? Sonic’s fundamentals are surging Here’s the hidden data that gauges a chain's real health 👇 1⃣ "Activity is dead". Wrong! It's accelerating: ↳ Monthly Active users = ATH ↳ Month’s not over yet 🤯 ↳ 209K (up from 168 K in May ⇒ +24%) 2⃣Revenue growth is speeding up: ↳ FeeM have grown by 21% from Apr→May ↳ Monthly: $182K → $221K ↳ FeeM is a great indicator of real value , not just activity 3⃣ "Builders left Sonic". Nope! ✯ Deployed contract: 1.6K/week now vs 1.2K in April ✯Sonic ranks 9th among all L1s in deployment activity 4⃣Monthly active addresses: ↳ Latest: 666 K ↳ (vs Apr at 393 K): +69.5 % growth ↳ We did slightly dip vs May (-11%) 5⃣ Sonic's usability is still unmatched ↳ Ultra Low gas ↳ Sonic tx: $0.0094 ↳ L1 avg: $3.90 ↳ Sonic is ~415x cheaper to use ❗️

"DEFI won’t replace banks. It’ll power them" Here are the 9 most interesting takeaways from Andre's @Permissionless roundtable: 1️⃣ Stablecoins will dominate DEFI ↳ The market will hit $1.5T+ in 5 years 2️⃣ TradFi is quietly adopting DEFI rails ↳ Regulated neobanks are already embedding DEFI yields straight into banking apps 3️⃣ Maximum decentralization peaked ↳ Most users don’t want to manage private keys or deal with bugs. They want safety, support, and some kind of “undo” button 4️⃣ DAOs mostly failed ↳ Years of DAO governance experiments led to inefficiency, waste, and misallocated funds. Builders now admit: real products need real teams 5️⃣ DEFI's killer feature: no gatekeepers ↳ In TradFi, you need permission to build. In DEFI, anyone can ship...even a 16-year-old dev with no funding 6️⃣ New regulation is bullish for DEFI ↳ Stablecoin issuers may be banned from offering native yield. That yield-hungry capital? It’ll flow straight into on-chain DEFI protocols 7️⃣ UX is DEFI biggest blocker ↳ Legacy users won’t touch MetaMask. Winning the next 100M users means rethinking UX from scratch starting with simplicity 8️⃣ TradFI won’t be destroyed ↳ It’ll absorb DEFI. Banks are forking DEFI code, building on-chain products, or licensing infrastructure 9️⃣ “Pure” DEFI may shrink ↳ but hybrid DEFI will explode. The future isn’t anarchist contracts. It’s self-custodial wallets inside fintech apps, offering DEFI under the hood with options to go deeper DEFI is not dying...It is morphing

The 50/50 @flyingtulip_ raise stirred controversy in the community But this raise is actually designed to create the first ever mathematically impossible VC dump 5 reasons why Andre just broke the VC playbook 🧵 1️⃣ Simple explanation of this innovative yet misunderstood mechanism: VCs invest → their money goes into yield strategies → only the profits from those strategies fund the project, never the original investment So instead of VCs extracting value, they become permanent yield contributors to the project's success 2️⃣VCs can redeem tokens back at original investment price anytime They have zero incentive to dump on markets for quick exits 3️⃣Fixed supply of $FT. So no dilution! This prevents the token value from dropping due to too many tokens flooding the market, which often leads to VCs selling quickly. 4️⃣The reason why half the tokens stay with the FT foundation, is to prevent VC dominance we see in other projects 5️⃣ VC round first, community ICO later....retail gets price discovery protection while VCs establish benchmarks

Hey Sonic friends, I am moved and truly thankful for the overwhelming support, but it is not me However, I am sure they're capable and close to the community Receiving this type of support from you makes me want to ramp up my efforts for you and the ecosystem 🫶 I also would like to announce that my true colors will show soon and I'll start fudding my own $s bags as a result 😜
Good morning. We're making a serious effort to improve relations between the community and @SonicLabs. In the coming days, we hope to announce a new Head of Ecosystem (someone well-known to the community) whose core mission will be to bridge this gap and strengthen communication.

5 things about @flyingtulip_ that I didn’t know until I read this article 👇 1⃣ $FT tokens will be wrapped inside an NFT → As long as FT stays in the NFT, you can redeem 1:1 in the same deposited asset → If you pull FT out, you lose redemption right → Partial (pro-rata) redemptions allowed So will @paint_swap power the orderbook, or will FT run its own native NFT trading book? 🧐 2️⃣ There was a lot of debate + concerns about this one: Investors can contribute with a mix of assets, like ETH, SOL, AVAX and, wait for it... $S 3️⃣ Every $1 invested mints 10 FT tokens Starting price, FT = $0.10 If the full $1B raise is hit → Supply = 10B FT tokens If less than $1B is raised, fewer tokens exist 4⃣ Team and foundation start with zero tokens at launch → Instead of upfront allocations or time vesting, insider tokens only come from protocol buybacks funded by yield and revenue This ensures the team only wins if the protocol performs and creates ongoing deflationary pressure for investors 5⃣ Liquidation mechanism is built to minimize market impact → This means liquidations happen gradually across multiple venues to avoid tanking the price Market makers get paid to help, and the system automatically tightens during volatility then relaxes when things stabilize
A unified onchain exchange, engineered from first principles. Stablecoin, money market, spot, derivatives, insurance. Better yield, better UX. Thanks @PineAnalytics for the thoughtful breakdown.

Everyone’s hyped about Sonic $S TVL hitting ATH, but they are overlooking these five strong signals hidden in plain sight👇 1⃣Daily Active Users: Measures real adoption 🔸Sonic: 42.4K 🚀 (rising) 🔸Avalanche: 28.2K 📉 (falling) 2⃣Mcap / DeFi TVL Ratio (Lower = More undervalued): 🔹Sonic – 1.12 🔹 Avalanche – 4.67 3⃣Transactions: Shows network activity & demand ♦️Sonic: 19.4M 🚀 (growing) ♦️Avalanche: 11.1M 📉 (declining) 4⃣Block Time: Lower = faster transactions & better UX 🔸Sonic: 445ms 🏎️ 🔸Avalanche: 1.9s 🐢 💡Consider this: 🔹Sonic FDV: $1.6B 🔹Avalanche FDV: $8.5B One is faster, cheaper, and onboarding more users—yet it's undervalued by 5x! Not taking away from Avalanche, but these numbers put things into perspective

🚨Breaking: @sonic_strategy boosted their validator stack from 14.4M to a whopping 19.4M $S (coincidentally) just now! This is the kind of move I referenced in my previous post, from a Sonic ecosystem value machine that turns TradFi capital into $S, and $S into more TradFi capital ♻️

A whale accumulating $S for the past 8 months, just doubled down ⚠️They purchased 300K $S 2 days ago and another 318K $S just 7 hours ago The infrequent buy patterns suggest this is unlikely a trading desk or a market maker No staking/Yield Farming. This behavior leans toward a conservative entity like a whale/institution/VC with a long-term horizon, not needing yield to justify the position ✯ Interestingly, They sold their entire Sonic stack in Feb but have been buying back ever since 🧮Current Holdings (Total: $1.04M): 2.84M $S - $847K (82% of portfolio) 37 ETH - $163K 1M BEETS - $22.5k This whale is clearly betting big on the long-term growth of Sonic

The @flyingtulip_ raise is grabbing the crypto headlines ⚠️ but the real alpha is in these 5 facts we didn’t know until now: 1️⃣ Roll out will take place first on @SonicLabs with zero-fee trading The full stack (spot, perps, lending, ftUSD, insurance) will then roll out to Eth , AVAX, BNB, and Sol (This should put everyone at ease) 2️⃣ Retail enters at the exact same FDV / valuation as institutions, at $1B No markup, making it one of the fairest major token launches (ever?) 3️⃣ Retail are also protected by the perpetual put At any time, $FT can be burned to redeem the original contributed asset Redemptions are managed transparently by smart contracts with queues and rate limits to ensure solvency 4️⃣ Buybacks are yield-funded, not emission-funded Up to $1B of raised capital sits in onchain strategies like Aave, Ethena, and Spark, generating 4% annually ($40M) That recurring yield is recycled into buybacks and liquidity support, creating constant demand without dilution 5️⃣ The Cronje signature growth flywheel is how all the pieces fall into place Yield funds buybacks + incentives → stronger token and deeper liquidity → more users and fees → more yield to restart the cycle This simply signals sustainable growth instead of short-term emissions

While most chains were chasing the next PumpFun 2.0, @SonicLabs was on the NASA stage unveiling its cutting edge tech ❌ The NASA part...is not clickbait. But it flew under everyone's radar What is it? ELI5 ✯ Uses the same tech NASA trusts to keep rockets on course ✯ Turns “we hope it’s safe” into a hard math proof that it is ✯ Already tested on big DAGs like Hashgraph, Aleph, Bullshark ✯ Now guarding Sonic’s L1, so blocks can’t ever conflict This library lets devs plug in modules and verify any DAG consensus under all conditions, AND it is open source! What does it mean for Sonic? ✅ SonicCS 2.0 is modelled with the new library, giving it math based safety before launch ✅ Overlapped elections bring ~2X throughput and 68% less memory; proofs confirm zero fork risk! ✅ Faster consensus trims latency, nudges fees lower, and pushes $S finality sub-sub-sub second ✅ Builders plug in verified modules instead of spending months on custom proofs

⚠️Wintermute's $S reserves are collapsing So is the Sonic price But correlation ≠ causation…right? Here’s why in this case, it kind of is 👇 So...what happened? • WM $S balance: 13M→7M (-57%) in 30D • Sonic price fell from $0.60→$0.38 • Price drop pattern matches reserve drop • Not necessarily a red flag BUT... What happens when MM reserves drops? • Sell pressure is not absorbed like before • Liquidity thins→ each sale moves price more • Panic traders spot weakness and join in What Likely caused the price drop? • Weak sentiment = early sell off • Add to that WM exiting & returning supply • Sell-side pressure accelerates downtrend • WM’s reduction likely added fuel to fire • Their actions didn’t cause it but deepened it MM best practice when price falls • Increase gap between bid and ask prices • Protect against sharp price swings • Prevent forced liquidation • Trim inventory gradually not abruptly • Keep price from dropping too fast What Wintermute Actually Did • Rapidly trimmed 6M tokens • May have caused additional sell pressure • Reserves cut at a less than ideal timing TLDR - Wintermute may (or may not) have started the sell off - But they didn’t stabilize it either - Their exit made things worse...faster This is just surface level of what we can see on-chain. I am sure a lot more is happening behind the scenes Correlation ≠ causation But here, the lines blur

After a series of missteps, @SonicLabs Summit set impossibly high expectations ⚠️Here are 6 reasons why bringing Mitchell as CEO isn't just damage control, it's how Sonic can finally deliver 1️⃣Regulatory Judo: Navigated Canadian exchange complex regulations early, building compliant models Did the same with @sonic_strategy in Canada and the US, giving Sonic a blueprint for navigating and leveraging regulated markets 2⃣TradFi’s Trojan Horse: Built bridges between Wall Street and crypto, raising institutional capital, at a time when few could His track record in capital markets means Sonic now has a leader who knows how to structure deals, attract regulated money and open doors 3️⃣Proven Sonic Growth Record: Built the fastest-growing validator, launched a second, forged key alliances, all before CEO Clear proof he can deliver growth under Sonic’s own playbook 4️⃣The Innovation Multiplier: Serial entrepreneur who anticipates market shifts and scales ventures He has a knack for turning raw tech, into category-defining applications, before anyone else Sonic’s unmatched speed + scalability is the perfect foundation for him 5️⃣OG Network Effects: His early crypto network (even from the 2013 BTC ATM days) could become Sonic's institutional Rolodex With his network, Sonic gains access to the partnerships and integrations needed to scale beyond retail 6⃣ Governance Arsenal Activation: Sonic’s DAO unlocked 470M $S for stitutional expansion Demeter’s track record blending crypto yields with TradFi proxies positions him to turn that war chest into real inflows for Sonic Sonic already has the speed. @MitchellDemeter brings the institutional bridge, the treasury activation, the regulatory playbook and the innovation angle
Excited to step into the role of CEO @SonicLabs. With best-in-class tech, a strong treasury, and a solid foundation, our focus now is assembling a global executive team to drive adoption, strengthen institutional partnerships, and continue to scale Sonic globally.

About to become the MicroStrategy of @SonicLabs ⚠️@Sonic_Strategy is quietly hoovering up $S and we might be about to front-run their next move ✯ Acquired 1.2M $S from "DV Chain" but that was announced in the past week ✯ Here's what's unannounced yet: ↳ 200K $S scooped from KuCoin ↳ 760K $S again via DV Chain ✯ Interesting facts: ↳ 500K+ $S self-staked to their validator ↳ They use a web of wallets ↳ 15M+ $S now under their control ↳ Own Sonic validator 45 ✯ They have a Symbiotic relationship with Beets? ↳ Beets is their biggest staker (7M $S) ↳ In return, they stake $800K in s/sTS Beets pool ↳ Also have $300K staked in Magpie Note: DV chain is a "liquidity provider to institutions". It fascinates me that they're just a middleman between Sonic Strategy and Binance Ask yourself, if the big brains (like Mitch) behind Sonic Strategy are still aggressively scaling despite their bags being in the red...what do they know 👀

If you did, mind sharing what worked for you? I’ll compile the replies into a public sheet to help surface patterns ahead of Season 2

If Cardano, a ghost chain, is in the top 10, how's @SonicLabs with actual utility, fundamentals and tech not criminally undervalued? Fun fact = $S and ADA both have similar TVL But one is at $33B mcap and the other other has all the upside prospects🤯 ✯ P/F ratio: Cardano is overvalued by 1,277% compared to Sonic ADA is criticized for being slow expensive, and outdated and unusable, limiting scalability & adoption $10K invested in Sonic at ADA valuation = $316K Peak inefficiency = peak opportunity 🚀

🚨Breaking: Sonic is back in the spotlight $S is currently trending on Coingecko again Sonic's trading metrics over the last 24 hours have been looking strong compared to the broader market clearly catching some attention
I need everyone to contain themselves for this one 🚨 $S price just outperformed every L1 with a +12% pump in 24H But the real story is in the numbers: ✯ A whopping +90% in CEX volume ✯ Highest CEX activity in 2 months ✯ Long/short ratio finally above 1 So, what mean? 🤔 More traders longing than shorting for the first time in a long time - sentiment shifting to bullish Note: we are a TOUCH above 1, so we need to maintain this momentum

Burn-to-Fun is @0xDeFive innovative meme launch concept that could solve the meme dilemma TLDR: Burn $FIVE to mint new meme tokens with built in fairness, rug-proof liquidity and community backing But that's just scratching the surface 👇 1️⃣What's the secret virality sauce? Every meme launches with a presale-backed community who become the first marketers Love this baked-in virality approach 🧠 2️⃣How do memes get picked? From current trends, internal concepts, community suggestions, and KOL pitches based on hype potential Interesting: Creators get ~1% supply with cliff and vesting to prevent dumps 3️⃣What happens to the $FIVE I contribute? Every $FIVE is burned forever, permanently reducing supply 4️⃣How does participation work? veFIVE holders get tiered access based on staking commitment 5️⃣How do I know it won't get rugged? Liquidity pools are permanently burned making it impossible for creators to pull liquidity 6️⃣What happens after launch? Successful memes immediately get DeFive farming incentives to boost liquidity and grow their holder base 7️⃣What if a launch fails? If minimum raise isn't met, launch gets cancelled and all $FIVE contributions are fully refunded According to the team, this is a proven concept, now reimagined to address traditional meme problems and create a sustainable culture 🚀
Sonic doesn't need a few memes. It needs hundreds! 👀 And that’s why we are building Burn-to-Fun: A meme launchpad for fair, rug-proof, $FIVE-fueled launches. 🔥 Burn. Mint. Grow. Repeat. Full story ▶️ defive.medium.com/burn-to-fu…

Drawing from the recent articles and interviews, here's an outline of @flyingtulip_ value flow ✅Includes the sources of revenue and payouts, and the impressive burn mechanics that drive deflation → Based on a "token first" approach ✯ Before paying users, the platform buys FT on the market and pays them in $FT → Burn, burn and MORE burn😈 ✯ Raise pool (initial $1bn) is deployed to low-risk venues → we expect ~4% yield → this covers opex → then buy FT on market → burn it ✯ PUT mechanics: redeem at par while FT remains in the NFT → burn FT ✯ sell/transfer (PUT forfeited) → released backing buys FT → burn Secondary buyers get no PUT (super clever mechanic to drive raise) ✯ Team Alignment: if the team claims tokens → matching market buy → burn ✯ if team takes capital instead → corresponding FT burned → Where income + yield originate from?🤔 ✯ Fees collected (user fee slices) → buy FT → distribute to users ✯ Token-first user payout budgets (funding transfers, supplier share of lending spread, maker/LP & perps incentives, ftUSD yields, insurance rewards) → buy FT → distribute to users → The $10bn FT nominal unlock target ✯ Net protocol revenue (after distributions + costs) → buy FT - Until 10B nominal unlocked → allocate bought $FT 40% Foundation / 20% Team / 20% Ecosystem / 20% Incentives with a matched burn → net circulating flat - After 10B nominal reached → revenue buybacks → burn Flying Tulip adopts a token first first approach - it buys FT off the market for payouts, instead of minting so distribution is non-inflationary, and every burn that follows tightens supply rather than expands it

His goal? Build a chain so fast it runs the entire world’s finance @DrSonicScholz just mapped out how Sonic plans to front-run the next generation of L1s 👇 1⃣ Sonic’s stack already supports government‑grade RWAs like land‑title registries. Formal proofs are being built in to win regulatory sign‑off 2⃣ The Sonic–Ethereum bridge is the first financial bridge with a mathematically proven fail‑safe design 3⃣ Dr Scholz works with a team of top post‑docs and PhD students, giving Sonic access to cutting-edge research and production-grade engineering 4⃣ Sonic can host institutional, KYC‑enabled L2s (similar to Robinhood on ARB) once it adds blob support and a dedicated block‑processing unit 5⃣ Development on the next-gen tech (quantum resistant + millisecond finality) has begun. Sonic works on a 2-3 year R&D horizon to keep a technology lead 6⃣ Next‑gen Sonic target: match → surpass Visa scale. The goal is to design tech to clear 2B + (ideally 10B) transactions per day so one L1 can settle all global finance 7⃣ Lightweight clients are coming and may tap zero‑knowledge proofs to cut resource costs without losing security
The Sonic community has spoken. AMA with the legendary @DrSonicScholz 🗓️ Sun Jul 20, 8:15 PM EDT 🎙️Hosted by @SonicLabs and yours truly Drop all your AMA questions in the comments: Future of Sonic, competitive positioning, next gen architecture, research, security, AI👇

Most people didn’t grasp how important Spark is ❌ Sonic is no longer JUST the fastest L1 Here’s the hidden truth of how Spark will transform @SonicLabs as we know it👇 1⃣ It's a Sonic proprietary data moat ↳ Spark will generate vast datasets of on-chain builds, failures, and optimization using anonymized chain data This could evolve into decentralized AI training markets on Sonic, where firms stake $S for compute access / training 2⃣ The hidden value flywheel ↳ ability to deploy "agent swarms" ↳ more on-chain AI agents → higher transaction density → increased gas fees → added value Thanks to FeeM, this amplifies network effects, attracting liquidity (and talent) from other chains 3⃣ An institutional money magnet ↳ compliant AI dev tooling appeals to post-EU AI Act capital ↳Spark positions Sonic as the DeFAI leader A story that is a magnet for institutional capital and VCs into $S 4⃣ An easy to use engine for builders ↳ full-stack AI lets non-crypto experts prototype in minutes Spark fosters innovation, expanding the Sonic developer pool exponentially More devs → better innovation → more users → more FeeM for Devs → better innovation ♻️ Spark is not just an AI developer toolkit. It's a strategic move that positions Sonic at the forefront of the intersection of Blockchain + AI The mastermind behind this move? @0xseg

$S is down 21% this week. But something’s off Sonic is flowing OFF exchanges, yet price keeps bleeding 🩸 Here’s why this setup is getting explosive ✯ Exchange Outflows 2M–4M leaving CEXs daily Suggests accumulation No signs of panic dumping ✯ Perp Volume Futures volume ranged $10M–$40M daily No major spikes = no forced liquidations or short squeezes ✯ Open Interest (OI) Stable at ~$48M–$50M Despite price drop, OI held = traders didn’t close out Meaning conviction staying high ✯ Funding Rates Binance/Bybit/OKX = between 0-5% CEX traders are betting on a rebound TLDR ✯ Price down 21 percent = bearish ✯ Stable OI means no mass exits yet ✯ Outflows = holders stacking, not selling ✯ Market in deadlock → pressure building ✯ Market coiled between 0.40 & 0.45 What does that mean? - A break below 0.40 on rising volume and growing negative funding will likely trigger a sharp downturn - A more likely scenario is a break above ~0.45 on rising volume and a flip to positive funding will likely spark a relief rally

My $S bags are disgustingly down But my Sonic thesis hasn’t changed ★ Relentless team that listens + ships ★ Lined up catalysts ★ Wildly underpriced ★ love the community ★ Andre 👑 ★ Full diluted. No VCs ★ real utility + tech positioned for the upcoming crypto adoption
Replying to @mrdejie @SonicLabs
(Not referencing $S price) You will see a lot of people try to put us own and say we are scammers, shit project, ruggers, losers, assholes, con artists. Let them say whatever they want to cope. Reality is that we show up to work EVERY SINGLE DAY. The project is far from a scam and has the strongest foundational values and fundamentals of any chain I have seen. The product is real, the tech is real, the team is experienced. Memes and pumpfun have made it hard because there is this illusion that you can do like 200x in 3 weeks, when not only is that far from reality, but it’s mostly insiders with supply control. On Sonic, we are fully diluted. We are not like other chains where the foundations own like 70% of the supply and enable market makers to play big games. I spoke with the team yesterday and I will share an excerpt from the message. —— Quite the long day of death threats, finger pointing, dox threats, hate messages, false accusations and just overall chaos. But guess what!? We are still working, we are still locked the fuck in, and we are still knocking down the goals we set and accomplish. I appreciate all of you on the team and I really respect all of the hard work and effort everyone puts in. Whether it’s the oldest employee or the newest employee, we are all in this together and everyone’s passion and dedication is felt very strongly. Now, what’s next? What is in our control? The same thing that was in our control 2 days ago, 2 weeks ago, 2 months ago, 2 years ago. Just stay focused. Focus on building sonic to have EVERYTHING Fantom never had the opportunity to have. Stay focused and bring as much to Sonic as possible.

A liquidity machine is coming to Sonic @flyingtulip_ will drive $S demand, creating a dual loop ♻️liquidity →more users→ more capital →even more $S demand 1⃣The FT Loop ✯ ftUSD earns neutral yield + FT is purpose built for institutions ✯ Very attractive for capital to compliantly park without taking price risk ✯ Quad-purpose LPs turn deposits into deep markets One pool works for spot, lending, options, and perps. Liquidity does more than one job ✯ Activity will ramp up quickly. Trades, loans, and institutional hedging increases ✯ Depth grows for @SonicLabs tokens TVL rises. Deposits recycle back into the ftUSD base. The FT loop completes But this loop connects to the Sonic loop 👇

The question on everyone's mind has finally been answered ✅ the @flyingtulip_ public sale is scheduled for sometime in Q4, possibly this month This is pending two more audits - By the way: we all have to become "Flying Tulip accredited investors" by taking an $FT investor test before we participate That means we would have to actually read and understand what we are investing in this time 😁

I’m not a Sonic OG, and I see a lot of new faces on the Sonic TL ☑️When I started, the more time I spent watching Andre’s interviews the more conviction I had in $S For the newer crowd, here's why we believe in Andre: ✯ Solidly + ve(3,3): made ve locks tradable as veNFTs, sparked the Solidly Wars His work was used by Velodrome → Aerodrome lineage ✯ Yearn vaults + strategies + zaps: standardized yield aggregation and one-click LP actions Also many protocols copied it ✯ Backscratcher (yveCRV): pooled and perma-locked CRV to maximize Curve boosts for yearn depositors during the curve wars ✯ Keep3r network: on-chain jobs marketplace coordinating protocol upkeep like harvests and liquidations ✯ Deriswap: single capital pool concept unifying swaps, options and loans for higher efficiency ✯ yInsure: tokenized cover marketplace that wrapped Nexus Mutual capacity for easier DEFI insurance ✯ Fixed Forex: open source framework for non-USD stable FX minting and liquidity incentives ✯ FTM treasury via DeFi: starting with roughly 3 million dollars in early 2020, farmed COMP and SNX recycled profits into FTM, and by May 2021 reported about 1.5 billion dollars including FTM @SonicLabs / FTM treasury still runs off the amounts he accumulated (and probably still does) I am sure I missed many more

It’s pure 100% hopium grade conviction in @SonicLabs $AVAX + $S + $ANON .... it might be the legend himself 🤔 Only reason I'm hesitant to draw this conclusion is because ANON position is relatively small...

Sonic Governance Vote #1 is hinting at something major that's coming 🗳️Let's piece the clues the team left: ✯ “Institutional strategy” ➕“market demand” = TradFi wrapper around $S ✯ “New financial product” ➕ “Brings Sonic to institutions” = hints at an ETF path ✯ “Three letter acronyms” = confirms ETF/ETP ✯ “Brings institutions to Sonic” could be on‑chain KYC pools or institutional developer tech stacks? So why is a @SonicLabs vote required? 🤔 → Possibly for treasury spend to seed the ETF, compliance contracts etc → Could also be risk management. Centralized custody of $S and new compliance rails may introduce counter‑party and regulatory risks Governance lets the community weigh those risks against the upside

Blub's article is the best @SonicLabs analysis I have seen in a long time. A rarity these days Here are a few more ideas to rebuild trust and revive the chain 👇 1⃣ Proof of Reserves Dashboard ✯ A real-time treasury dashboard built showing inflows, outflows, buybacks, emissions and validator yields with automated health scores → Radical transparency that builds trust + replaces speculation with proof and demonstrates Sonic’s financial strength This also aligns with new institutional compliance requirements 2⃣ Treasury Buyback Auctions Goal: create accumulation pressure on $S ✯ Turn buybacks into public on-chain auctions instead of sporadic quiet events The treasury uses its revenue to bid for $S in open auctions. Think of it like a reversed Olympus “bonding” model Users compete to sell $S to the treasury at a fair premium Treasury earns yield → buys $S on-chain → reduces supply → boosts staking yield → reinforces demand → repeat This creates visible, rule-based buy pressure that builds confidence, rewards holders & makes $S structurally deflationary 3⃣Smart Funding Allocation ✯ A funding system for developers where payments are tied to clearly defined milestones to minimize waste and maximize outcomes Prevents developers extracting and disappearing ✯ Progress, payments, and outcomes are publicly visible on the Proof of Reserves Dashboard

Sonic TVL dropped from $1.2B to $720M ⚠️I spent 3 hours compiling and dissecting ALL 100 top point earners Top 5 unexpected findings: 1⃣Most whales didn’t leave ↳ 78% stayed ↳ only ~22% moved to a different chain 2⃣Loyalty correlated with: ↳ Wallets using both Shadow and Silo were far more likely to stay 🤯 3⃣Points didn’t favor just whales ↳ Correlation between wallet size and Sonic Points: 0.153 What does this mean? → Larger holders didn’t get more → Likely due to smarter DEFI usage 4⃣ The top protocols used on @SonicLabs: ↳ Silo, Aave, Pendle 5⃣Most common tokens held ↳ SILO, $SHADOW, WETH ↳ excluding of course, $S, its LSTs and USDC

🚨Sub-second finality is the metric that truly matters and @SonicLabs is about to get a lot faster First, other chains are getting faster, but they still have a long way ✯ Sonic → 400K ✯ SEI Giga → 221K ✯ Sui → 120K ✯ Solana → 65K ✯ Arbitrum → 40K ✯ Avalanche → 4.5K But TPS alone ≠ quality SonicCS 2.0 upcoming upgrades adds: Consensus upgrades + 68% memory reduction → even faster sub-second finality → 2× higher effective throughput → faster, cheaper, and more reliable $S transactions under real network load With pioneers like Dr. Scholz leading the way, Sonic will be in the lead for a long time

🚨Just now: $S surges a massive +9% making it the second largest gainer among all other coins in 24h In the past week there's been indications that Sonic is acting like a loaded spring We need to see weekly close above $0.35 for @SonicLabs to see the next leg up This makes me hyped! 😁

Story time: A tale called "Patience" 📕In May 2023, SUI launched at $1.40. What followed was a relentless descent A brutal bleed that carved away hope, bottoming at ~$0.37 by October ✯ FUD was rampant = "the chain is dead!" And the pattern repeats itself: 1) $S from 0.98 → 0.25: down -74% 2) SUI from 1.4 → 0.37: down -73% ✅Yet from SUI's darkest hour came resurrection. It took exactly one year Up to ATH of $5.50! The patient were rewarded beyond imagination Today, @SonicLabs sits in that same quiet before the storm. Loaded with potential, waiting for a spark and that spark is coming for Sonic🌷 Check out the chart Sonic = 🟥 SUI = 🟩

30M $S was bought back from the market, yet price hasn't recovered to pre-liquidation levels 🛑Foundation selling? WinterMute dumping? Nope. liquidations were deeper than I thought This Sonic OG alone lost 15M $S ✯ Here's something really interesting: Just a few hrs before the crash, he paid off ~3.5M S of his loan ✯ Ended up with ~15M Sonic collateral ✯ Borrowed more than 2M USDC Spent hours looking at his TXNs, since there is no simple way to check Silo liquidations on Sonic: ✯ 222 liquidation txs ✯ Avg size ≈ $10K per liquidation Totals from the on-chain data: ✯ 2.3M USDC repaid by liquidators ✯ 14.7M wS liquidated ✯ 522K left as collateral (~$94K) This is one wallet only. Not sure of the total amount of Silo liquidations on Sonic, let alone including all other platforms like AAVE that had ~$10M liquidated $30M didn't bring back the Sonic price to pre-liquidation levels, but we would've been at a way worse price without it
Last night’s market cascade was another reminder of how fast things can move in crypto when leverage unwinds against a backdrop of global uncertainty. These moments test conviction and show why strong foundations matter. $S, like much of the market, saw sharp volatility, but nothing about Sonic’s fundamentals has changed. We have a strong balance sheet, best-in-class tech, and a mission built for the long haul. Through it all, the Sonic network performed exactly as designed. Zero pending transactions, hundreds of TPS sustained for hours, near-instant finality, and sub-cent fees. No congestion across DEXs or infrastructure. Pure, consistent performance. As the dust settled, we added just over 30 million more $S to our treasury, purchasing roughly $6M USD directly from the market, as we believe this will deliver stronger long-term ROI than sitting in stable reserves. Markets move in cycles, but our focus doesn’t change. Building real technology, real partnerships, and products that last. To our builders, validators, and community: stay focused. The work continues today, just like it did yesterday.

Sonic TVL is soaring But is it benefiting the chain or just sitting idle?🤔 Let's ask the data 👇 ☑️ Now ranks #3 in revenue per user ☑️ Revenue surged 3 weeks straight ☑️ Active wallets up 124%: 353K→792K (ATH) ☑️ Sonic ranks #10 in wallet activity ☑️ Weekly txs @ ATH: 6.1M (+49% in 30D) ☑️ # of contracts deployed surged 80% in 30D ☑️ Sonic is #11 in 30d DEX volume across chains

🚨Breaking: @sonic_strategy boosted their validator stack from 14.4M to a whopping 19.4M $S (coincidentally) just now! This is the kind of move I referenced in my previous post, from a Sonic ecosystem value machine that turns TradFi capital into $S, and $S into more TradFi capital ♻️
A project built to compound $S value creation at every turn Let’s dissect the @sonic_strategy its little known flywheel and its mutually beneficial relationship with the Sonic ecosystem: 1️⃣ Raise capital from TradFi investors to help buy Sonic at OTC discounts 2️⃣ Acquire $S and deploy into validators → more weight, stronger security, staking yield 3️⃣ Earn yield from DeFi strategies + further validator scaling 4️⃣ Accumulation, staking, and DeFi demand drive Sonic price → higher price lifts NAV + share value 5️⃣ Stronger NAV attracts fresh capital from private + public markets → bigger capacity to buy + deploy more $S When TradFi meets @SonicLabs, the result is a self-powered Sonic value making machine

1/3 How much $S inventory did Wintermute borrow and how much remains? ✯ Let's look at their $FTM loan ↳ After Sonic went live and over 4 months ↳ WM gradually returned 23.5M $FTM ↳ Matches the $S amount sent back to them ↳ But an additional 32.5M $S was bridged to WM👇
Replying to @SpacePoernchen
maybe i have an idea. Just look onchain. :D

If you missed today's Space with the Assistant, here are the nuggets I noted: ✯ Beets, $Shadow, Silo, $GOGLZ in talks with CEXs ⚠️If this is not alpha, I don't know what is → A major Perp DEX is coming to Sonic 👀 → Impressed by the tech, big prospects are coming to Sonic ↳ Airdrop Points gamers = will be excluded ↳ Airdrop disparate reactions are expected ↳ Only green candles silence critics (Amen 🙏) ✯ Andre is locked in, changing the world ✯ FlyingTulip expected to be widely forked ✯ Pectra upgrade = dynamic fees + abstraction ✯ Potential payment integrations (Red Dot Pay) will leverage Sonic’s tech for competitive advantage A lot more was discussed, these are just points I noted Props to @SonicAssistant for putting in 16-hour days and actively showing up for the community Thank you @TinHat_Cat - Great moderation skills Note: it was alluded that in talks with CEX does not equal guaranteed to be listed, as the process is complex

A wallet just accumulated a huge 1.8M of $S in 24 hrs. This time, we have indication it's a whale trader and not an entity ⚠️His related wallet shows prior @SonicLabs bridge usage $573K worth of Sonic over 7 transactions ✯ This time, we have an additional piece of info. His wallet is connected to the Opensea user "bodhi9918" My dude is an OG. Anyone remembers the World of Umans NFT collection? This is not a trading desk or or VC. Very likely a sophisticated FTM/Sonic-native

VC raises are essential for cutting-edge platforms like @flyingtulip_ Even if you are an anti-VC purist, you will change your mind after reading this 👇 ✯ Institutional credibility unlocks U.S. compliance readiness & attracts mainstream capital ✯ Competing with Hyperliquid and Coinbase for users demands war chest marketing, institutional partnerships, and compliance tools. Bootstrap budgets or ICO raises on Sonic won't cut it ✯ One exploit = game over. Complex smart contracts (adaptive AMMs, custom oracles, 1000x leverage) require millions of dollars in audits ✯ Delta-neutral yield strategies need massive capital to generate returns without touching principal. Small pools = slippage death for high-leverage trades ✯ CEX-level performance requires expensive infrastructure - node operations, oracle integrations, gasless $S transactions all cost serious money ✯ Fixed-supply tokenomics + perpetual PUT options require strong reserves for instant redemptions. Underfunded = low confidence This raise is a signal that Flying Tulip is building something massive on @SonicLabs ... enough to reshape DEFI forever

Andre is likely gearing up for a gradual comeback And when he reappears to ship Flying Tulip, the impact on $S won’t be subtle Proof? the data is clear: • Peaks in Andre’s social activity = $S strength This chart shows a direct correlation between his posts and Sonic price performance The alpha is in plain sight: just his presence supports price action, let alone if he's about to introduce what he's been building... markets will catch on fast
Seems like there is high correlation between @AndreCronjeTech activity on twitter and $S performance. Founder led marketing on chart.

Bad news: $S is bleeding. Good news: It's simple to stay profitable on Sonic Here's a scenario of a basic S/USDC LP returning +6.5% after a 17% drop (with IL)👇 ✯ Bought 10K $S at $0.60 ✯ Paired it with $6K USDC ✯ LP’d for 4 months at 50% APR (Conservative) ✯ $S dropped to $0.50 📉 Value after IL = $10,954 💰 Yield = $1,826 📊 Total value = $12,780 ✅ Net gain = +$780 → +6.5% No looping. No leverage. Minimal risk Even if $S drops to $0.44 you will still breakeven with minimal effort / risk

🚨 Just Now: @SonicLabs is Seeing Stablecoin Inflows USDC on Sonic just jumped $4.5M in a few hours. This is the first significant inflow we've seen in a while ⚠️ Caveat: This site has been reliable in the past, but let's wait for additional confirmation before getting too excited
