Sonic SVM, the developer of TikTok tap-to-earn game SonicX, announced it will airdrop SONIC tokens on the Solana blockchain to all users onboarded to its game.

The game features artwork reminiscent of Sega character Sonic the Hedgehog—though it’s not an officially licensed game—encouraging users to repeatedly tap a button on their screen to earn items in-game, purchase power-ups, and refer friends to move up the rankings.

As the first TikTok tap-to-earn game, SonicX needed just over a month to secure one million users after launching in October. The app claims to have onboarded another one million players since that time, taking advantage of a simple onboarding experience that doesn’t require users to create a crypto wallet or sign transactions to play the game.

Tap-to-earn has been a standout genre in Web3 gaming this year, with games like Hamster Kombat and Notcoin pulling in millions of players via Telegram and then rewarding them with a token airdrop via The Open Network (TON). Notcoin’s airdrop which was worth nearly $3 billion at its peak. 

A snapshot for the SONIC token has not been taken yet, meaning new users onboarded to SonicX on TikTok can still become eligible for the airdrop, which will occur in January according to an Sonic SVM representative. To prepare for the airdrop, users are only required 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. It currently plays host to more than 20 gaming and NFT projects with nearly 750,000 daily active addresses. 

The project plans to build a TikTok chain through its SonicX app layer, enabling 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.
