BNB Smart Chain is an EVM network secured by Proof‑of‑Staked Authority where 21 validators rotate every epoch, offering 3‑second block times. Projects benefit from low fees (< $0.05) and a vast ecosystem seeded by Binance Launchpad. The 2024 Moran upgrade implemented the BEP‑336 blob transaction format akin to Ethereum’s EIP‑4844.
Sonic is an ultra‑fast EVM Layer‑1 claimed to reach 400k TPS and sub‑second finality via a custom SonicVM and DAG‑based consensus dubbed Tempo. Blocks are final once two‑thirds of stake attest, and state is stored in an in‑memory ledger that snapshots to disk every epoch. The project focuses on GameFi and real‑time social dApps, with an incentive testnet launched in May 2025.
