Sophon is a consumer focused Web3 platform designed to embed blockchain into mainstream entertainment experiences—such as gaming, NFT ticketing, prediction markets, and AI powered social tools. It leverages ZKsync’s Elastic Chain and Validium architecture to deliver thousands of transactions per second with negligible gas costs, user friendly onboarding (via Google/Apple sign in and gas sponsorship), and account abstraction. Its design prioritizes scaling for high frequency consumer use cases, easing crypto’s accessibility barrier.
The SOPH token powers the ecosystem: it is used for gas payments (though many interactions remain gasless via paymasters), staking rewards for Guardian node operators, and incentives for developers and users through liquidity mining and grant programs. Token allocations include ~20% to node operators, ~57% to community incentives and ecosystem reserve, and ~25% to core contributors and investors
