TikTok Gamers to Receive Airdrop via Sonic SVM
TikTok users playing the tap-to-earn game SonicX will soon receive $SONIC tokens as part of an airdrop scheduled for January 2025.
The game, which launched in October 2024, has attracted over two million players and integrates blockchain technology through the Solana-based Sonic SVM platform. This initiative represents a step forward in connecting blockchain gaming with social media platforms, leveraging TikTok’s global reach.
Unlike many blockchain-based games, SonicX offers a seamless experience for players unfamiliar with cryptocurrency. With the upcoming airdrop, SonicX aims to reward its growing user base whilst drawing attention to the tap-to-earn gaming trend.

SonicX is a tap-to-earn game where players repeatedly tap their screens to earn rewards. These rewards can be used to acquire in-game items, power-ups, and improve rankings on leaderboards. The game is designed for simplicity and accessibility, making it suitable for casual players.
Whilst the game’s visual style draws inspiration from classic video game characters, it is not officially affiliated with any existing franchises. SonicX has gained traction due to its integration with TikTok, which allows players to join without requiring extensive setup or technical knowledge.
Logging in through TikTok automatically generates a cryptocurrency wallet, enabling participation without traditional blockchain complexities.
