The Road to Sonic: An On-Chain Journey

The Road to Sonic: An On-Chain Journey

We’re thrilled to launch The Road to Sonic campaign, an exciting on-chain journey designed to engage users with a variety of apps across the Opera ecosystem as we approach the Sonic launch.

In The Road to Sonic, you can collect "Sonic Shards" NFTs by completing tasks in weekly series. There are six series in total, and each one rewards you with a shard upon completion. Once you've collected all six shards, you can combine them to create an exclusive, special NFT.

Our goals are to introduce new users to our high-throughput technology, boost transactions on Opera, and generate usage of Opera apps while the Sonic mainnet is finalized.

Join us in exploring apps across DeFi, culture, community, gaming, and liquid staking tokens (LSTs).


Series 1: The Road to Sonic

The first series starts on August 7 and remains open until the end of the entire campaign. Complete the tasks below to receive the first-ever Sonic Shard NFT!

Task 1: Bridge
