What’s Driving Fantom Price Growth?

The Fantom network has been in the spotlight due to several significant developments in the past three months. On May 20, Fantom’s trading volume in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) skyrocketed by 109% within a week, driven by the announcement of the Sonic Network’s launch.

Sonic Network, a new blockchain from Fantom, is set to release its $S token, which is expected to be distributed to FTM holders. One of Sonic Network’s standout features is its functionality as a Layer 2 (L2) bridge for Ethereum.

On Jun. 22, Fantom introduced additional offerings for Sonic Network, including a grant system and a token-burning mechanism, further fueling interest in the network.
