Sony is joining the crypto game with Soneium, a Layer 2 blockchain on Ethereum.

As ever, Sony said it wants to enhance the adoption of Web3 technologies.

It seems to me these days every new blockchain is marketed using variants of these exact words.

But whatever, the point is, Soneium will operate on top of Ethereum, using (in part) technology from another Ethereum-adjacent blockchain, OP.

Soneium, and again these words are familiar, is designed to reduce transaction fees and increase transaction speeds.

The testnet will launch soon, and several relatively well-known crypto projects are gearing up to team up with Sony, including Chainlink.
