Sophon (SOPH) perpetual market

Sophon is a blockchain network built as a layer-2 using ZKsync's zero-knowledge technology stack, with a focus on consumer applications in areas such as entertainment, gaming and social experiences. It aims to provide low-cost, high-throughput transactions while inheriting security from Ethereum through zero-knowledge proofs, positioning itself as a chain where mainstream users interact with apps without needing deep technical knowledge. The network launched with a large community allocation and a staking phase that let participants commit assets to help bootstrap the ecosystem ahead of its token going live. The SOPH token is used for network fees, staking and governance within the Sophon ecosystem. Sophon is part of the wider trend of application-focused layer-2 networks built on shared zero-knowledge frameworks, competing to attract developers and users to consumer-oriented on-chain products.
