Sonic Points

This page is specific to season 2 of the airdrop.

Season 2 has begun. Season 1 claims open a few weeks after June 18, following a review period to filter bots and sybils, ensuring rewards go to real users.

Sonic Points are user-focused airdrop points that can be earned as part of the ~200 million S airdrop. Designed to boost liquidity on Sonic and strengthen its ecosystem, our points program positions Sonic as a premier hub for DeFi enthusiasts and users seeking to maximize the potential of their assets.

To earn Sonic Points, deploy whitelisted assets across various DeFi apps. These points will be distributed over multiple seasons as NFT positions, ensuring long-term sustainability and preventing sudden supply shifts.

How To Earn Points

1. User Points — Deploy Assets on Apps

By deploying whitelisted assets as liquidity on participating apps, users will earn points. A list of participating apps is available on the points dashboard.

To earn points for providing liquidity (LPs), both tokens in the pair must be whitelisted. If only one or neither token is whitelisted, no points will be earned. Points are calculated as the average of the two asset multipliers. For example, an S/USDC LP would earn 10x points (average of 12x and 8x).

2. App Gems — Earn Further Allocation

The S airdrop includes a developer-focused portion, where apps compete for an airdrop allocation known as Sonic Gems. Apps can redeem these Gems for S tokens, which they can then distribute to their users however they want.

To decide how these S tokens are distributed to their users, each app will run its own independent points program, entirely at its discretion. The app may consider various things, such as the amount of liquidity a user has deployed, the duration of deployment, and the specific pools to which a user has added liquidity.

As a user, you will be earning points regardless if you've deployed your assets on an app. Your goal is to identify which app has the points program that will offer the highest return for your liquidity. The challenge lies in maximizing your overall rewards by combining the yield earned from providing liquidity with the points earned from the app's points program.

Loyalty Multiplier

To encourage consistency and prevent farming or drop-off cycles, a loyalty multiplier is in place.

Your season 1 performance sets your initial multiplier (from 1.0–2.0x), and your ongoing activity in season 2 can increase or decrease that value, up to a maximum of 3.0x and a minimum of 1.0x.

The multiplier applies to EOAs only (for now) and updates automatically based on your activity. It will be visible in MySonic once available (not immediately at launch). This loyalty program will carry forward into future seasons.

Whitelisted assets and their multipliers are subject to change. S tokens staked through MySonic are not eligible for points. Users who wish to stake can instead use liquid staking tokens.
