Sonic SVM, the developer of the TikTok tap-to-earn game SonicX, has announced that it will airdrop SONIC tokens on the Solana blockchain to all users who have joined its game. The game, which features artwork reminiscent of Sega character Sonic the Hedgehog, encourages users to tap a button on their screen to earn in-game items, purchase power-ups, and refer friends to advance up the rankings.

SonicX became the first TikTok tap-to-earn game and managed to secure one million users within a month of its launch in October. The app has since onboarded another one million players, taking advantage of a simple onboarding process that does not require users to create a crypto wallet or sign transactions to play the game.

Tap-to-earn has emerged as a popular genre in Web3 gaming this year, with games like Hamster Kombat and Notcoin attracting millions of players via Telegram and rewarding them with a token airdrop via The Open Network (TON).

A snapshot for the SONIC token has not yet been taken, meaning new users onboarded to SonicX on TikTok can still become eligible for the airdrop, which is scheduled to occur in January according to a Sonic SVM representative.
To prepare for the airdrop,
To prepare for the airdrop, users only need to log in via TikTok, which automatically generates a wallet for them in the background. Sonic SVM is a Solana layer-2 network built for blockchain games and currently hosts more than 20 gaming and NFT projects with nearly 750,000 daily active addresses. The project aims to build a TikTok chain through its SonicX app layer, allowing other games to integrate onto the platform for distribution through TikTok.
It recently announced a partnership with Mahjong Verse to bring its Mahjong123 game to SonicX’s app layer.
