Good
Our verdict on Sonic Gateway
6.5/10Sonic Gateway is suited to users who need to move supported assets between Ethereum and Sonic through Sonic Labs’ native bridge. Its clearest strengths are a direct route, a short wallet-based flow and USDC support via Circle’s CCTP V2. The main caveat is that important operating details—including fees, timing, recovery procedures and the full scope of audits—are not clearly published. Treat it as a bridge with the usual contract and cross-chain risks, not as a risk-free transfer service.
