Sonic has announced a new integration with Web3 platform Kaito, which significantly expands the framework for user rewards, now including social engagement.
Sonic and Kaito Integration
Sonic has announced its integration with Kaito, a leading on-chain analytics platform. This integration enhances data transparency and expands how Sonic rewards users, moving beyond DeFi actions to include social engagement. With Kaito tracking user activity, Sonic now captures both on-chain and off-chain contributions.
Changes in Season 2 Airdrop
In Season 2, Sonic's revamped airdrop system allows users to earn points in two ways: through traditional DeFi transactions and by posting Sonic-related content on Twitter. Users who tweet about Sonic can earn points just as they would for staking or trading. Kaito's data tracking verifies each tweet and links it to the user's on-chain wallet address.
Retroactive Points Tracking
One of the most user-friendly aspects of the new system is that it goes live retroactively from June 18. This means any Sonic-related tweet posted since that date already counts toward Season 2 points. There is no need to wait or backfill manually — Kaito’s system updates automatically, ensuring all eligible engagement is rewarded.
The integration with Kaito highlights the importance of not only on-chain activity but also community engagement. This allows users to earn rewards for both financial actions and contributions to the community.
