  • Upcoming Distribution: Approximately 30 million $S are slated for distribution via Sonic Gems.
  • No Minimum Claim: This is great news, as there’s no minimum claim requirement for Gems.
  • How Gems Work: Sonic Gems were earned by applications that successfully drove user activity on the Sonic network, based on their performance across key metrics. It’s important to note that Gems are distributed entirely by builders, not by Sonic Labs directly.

Understanding the Airdrop Mechanics

Sonic’s airdrop strategy involved two primary mechanisms:

  • Sonic Points: These were earned by users who held and actively used whitelisted assets across various applications on Sonic. Roughly 49 million $S have already been distributed through Sonic Points.
  • Sonic Gems: As mentioned, Gems were allocated to apps based on their user activity, with builders then distributing these to their users.
