Sonami ($SNMI) announced the continuation of its presale alongside the expansion of its ecosystem through the launch of what it describes as the first token built on Solana Layer 2. The project states it was developed to address network congestion and reliability challenges Solana users often experience during periods of high transaction activity.
What This Layer 2 Approach Is Actually Designed to Do
The project was developed to tackle performance challenges on the Solana network, such as congestion and maintaining reliability during periods of high activity. As the first token launched on this Layer 2, it is positioned to offload transactions from the base layer, aiming to enhance network efficiency for transactions processed through it.
How the Bundling Mechanic Actually Works
Through this approach, multiple individual transactions are bundled into one, a method intended to help reduce overall congestion on the base network. By processing transactions this way, the token aims to improve efficiency and security while maintaining transaction speed and scalability during periods when the base Solana network experiences elevated activity.
What the Project States About Its Presale Transparency
Transparency has been identified as a key element for participants considering involvement in digital assets, and details have been released about the presale structure and subsequent development milestones. In the initial phase, focused on presale distribution, ongoing activity and participation are reported.
What Actually Happens After the Presale Concludes
Upon completion, tokens are stated to become bridgeable to Layer 2, and the token is planned to be listed on both decentralized and centralized exchanges. A third phase of the roadmap is intended to introduce expanded utility for token holders, continuing the stated focus on speed and reduced network congestion.
What the Token's Total Supply and Distribution Actually Look Like
A total supply of 82,999,999,999 tokens is planned to support continued ecosystem growth. Token distribution has been outlined with 15% allocated for marketing and 20% allocated for the treasury, among other stated allocation categories within the project's broader tokenomics structure.
Why a Dedicated Layer 2 Approach Is a Specific, Distinct Strategy
Building a project around offloading transactions to a dedicated Layer 2 rather than operating purely on Solana's base layer is a structural choice distinct from projects that simply deploy a token directly on Solana without addressing base-layer congestion at all; whether this approach delivers measurably better reliability during high-activity periods depends on actual usage and adoption once the Layer 2 is live at scale.
What Prospective Participants Should Specifically Verify
As with any presale-stage project, prospective participants should independently verify Sonami's smart contract audit status, review the project's actual technical documentation for its Layer 2 implementation, and treat the presale's stated roadmap phases as intentions rather than guaranteed outcomes until each phase is delivered.
Building dedicated infrastructure to solve a specific, named base-layer limitation like this reflects the same targeted technical approach seen in XRP Tundra's dual-chain architecture splitting execution and settlement, both structuring their underlying technical design around addressing a specific constraint of a single base blockchain.
This mirrors a similar dynamic covered in Sonami Pitches a Solana Layer 2 While Still in Presale, where the same underlying trade-off applies.
Glossary
- Layer 2: A secondary blockchain infrastructure built on top of an existing base chain, designed to improve transaction speed or reduce congestion.
- Transaction bundling: Combining multiple individual transactions into a single processed unit to reduce load on a base network.
- Bridgeable token: A token capable of being transferred between two different blockchain layers or networks.
