Gas Monetization
The Gas Monetization program offers apps a 15% share of the gas fees they generate and aims to provide high-quality apps with a sustainable income, retain talented creators, and support network infrastructure.
With Gas Monetization, we seek to foster a thriving ecosystem for builders, similar to the ad-revenue model on traditional web platforms.
Participate in Gas Monetization
Approval to the Gas Monetization program is at the discretion of the Sonic Labs as we assess each app. Apply to participate in Gas Monetization.
Upon approval to participate in the program, apps will begin to earn 15% of the gas fees they generate. The FTM earned through Gas Monetization can be used at the apps' discretion.
On the new Sonic chain, we're increasing Gas Monetization revenue to as much as 90% with a new burn model that increases burn rate for transactions.
Quarterly Bonus
Every quarter, the top 12 apps on Opera that generated the most gas will receive a bonus. These 12 projects are divided equally into four tiers that determine the amount of FTM they receive:
Tier 1 (top three projects): 40% of FTM
Tier 2 (next three projects): 30% of FTM
Tier 3 (next three projects): 20% of FTM
Tier 4 (final three projects): 10% of FTM
The quarterly bonus comes from the 15% deducted from transaction fees of apps not participating in Gas Monetization. While 15% of all transaction fees on Opera are allocated to the Gas Monetization program, the fees from non-participating apps are pooled and distributed as the quarterly bonus.
Terms & Conditions
Sonic Labs reserves the right to suspend rewards to participating apps for any reason deemed necessary at its sole discretion, including fraudulent user activity or the overall well-being of the Opera ecosystem.
