Why I am bullish on $S @SonicLabs
1⃣User Experience
Everything set aside, use the damn chain and you will realise that the user experience is at least X years ahead of any other L2/L1
2⃣Institutions
ETH & BTC are favorite, the spillover will happen eventually and it will happen to L1 (not L2s, have my reasons why - for another day)
The L1 that stands out, is Sonic. SUI, APTOS, SEI etc - you hear about them because it's just X months since sonic launch and most of the institutions are already invested in others - they have to shill there bags.
The next round of spillover will happen to Sonic. As Sonic beats them in every metrics and has much better infra compared to all of them.
3⃣Economic Model
Not talked about much by retail and CT - as it does not affect them. But, the current economic design of blockchains dates back to BTC model. Nothing has changed much. XXX% of the Tx fees going to validators/Miners.
Sonic changed it but giving XX% back to apps that generate them. It's a slow burner, but when it catches up, you will see the repercussions.
First time, all three participants- Foundation, Users and validators have been included in the bespoke economic model.
4⃣Dynamic fees
Again Sonic is a pioneer in thies field. An App being able to control the tx fees is a game changer. If you are relying on transaction count- keep the fee low. If you relying on high value transactions - keep the fee high (without hurting users)
5⃣New generation of Apps
