Sonic Network scores highly in terms of safety and reliability, having evolved from Fantom—a blockchain that has been operating successfully for years. With no supply overhang, a native token and FTM already trading, Sonic inherits a solid foundation that inspires confidence.

This also gives Sonic an edge, as its new "S" token could potentially secure listings on top exchanges due to FTM’s existing presence. The Fantom ecosystem has shrunk quite a bit since its peak in the 2021 bull market, which has led to the token itself under performing. However, the Sonic technology upgrade which will take the chain's TPS to an estimated 10,000 transactions per second as well as the name rebrand and fresh chart should make a massive impact on the token performance. We've already seen the hype start picking up in a big way with FTM being one of the top performing alt-coins of the last few months, and it doesn't look like it's slowing down.

FTM is also the largest holding in the Beluga Trading Wallet, which we've been accumulating over the last few months with an average price of about $0.50. With how things are picking up both in its ecosystem as well as general mindshare, this is a confident hold heading into the launch of Sonic.
