Sophon is a layer 2 network built on the ZK Stack, the technology behind ZKsync, and it is set up as a validium. Transactions are processed and proven with zero-knowledge proofs and settle on Ethereum, while the transaction data is stored off-chain to keep costs low. Its stated aim is to bring onchain features to everyday consumer apps in entertainment and lifestyle, and it is built to work with Ethereum-style wallets and tools.
The native token is SOPH, which is used for network fees and tied to the ecosystem's rewards and points programs. Fees on this kind of rollup are generally low compared with Ethereum mainnet, but they can change. DeFi activity on Sophon is very small, with total TVL of about $13,611 at the time of writing. Reports indicate that the Sophon network is shutting down, so check current official notices before moving funds.
The dApps on this page are a mix of native and multichain projects. Sophon Farm was the points-and-staking farm, and users with assets there are told to withdraw them. SyncSwap offers token swaps, Noon focuses on stablecoin yield, and Sablier Lockup and Sablier Flow handle vesting and payment streams. LayerZero V2 provides cross-chain messaging, and Copump is a high-risk meme token launchpad for experienced users only. Most of these run on several chains, so Sophon is just one place they appear.
