Tutorial : How to launch your Soneium node
Soneium launches node integration for its Minato Testnet. Discover how to easily set up your own node to contribute to the decentralization and security of the Soneium Network while also enhancing its overall performance.
What is Soneium ?
Soneium is a Layer 2 blockchain developed by Sony's Block Solutions Labs team, crafted to inspire emotion and foster creativity. It seeks to bridge the gap between Web3 and everyday internet services, making blockchain technology more user-friendly and accessible to people worldwide. Soneium provides the essential tools and a supportive environment to bring your innovative ideas to life.
Built on existing Layer 1 infrastructure, Soneium enhances data processing to overcome the slow transaction speeds and high costs commonly associated with Layer 1 solutions. Utilizing the Optimism Foundation’s Op Stack and Superchain, Soneium creates a scalable, EVM-compatible, and developer-friendly blockchain platform.
Why run a Soneium node ?
When applying the 80:20 rule to running nodes, the strategy is straightforward: focus on projects with significant fundraising and where early participation is viable. Soneium is a branch of Sony, being worth $130B in market capitulation, and most people are currently focused on testnet farming, leading to very low competition among node operators.
Projects typically provide substantial rewards to their node operators since they are considered essential contributors, helping to maintain the network's security, integrity, and decentralization.
