# The Sonic Revolution&#x20;

## What is Sonic?

Sonic is the highest-performing EVM L1, combining speed, incentives, and world-class infrastructure, powering the next generation of DeFi applications. The chain provides 10,000 TPS and sub-second finality.

It empowers developers with unmatched **scalability** and advanced storage capabilities, all while ensuring a blazing-fas&#x74;**, seamless user experience**.

## Unique Features:

* **Blazing-Fast Transactions** – Sonic delivers **10,000 transactions per second (TPS)** with **sub-second finality**, ensuring seamless and near-instant execution for DeFi, gaming, and dApps.
* **Fee Monetization (FeeM):** Sonic rewards developers with up to 90% of the network fees generated by their apps, providing a sustainable income stream. This allows them to focus on scaling your app and growing your user base without the constant pressure of securing additional financing. Inspired by Web2 ad-revenue models, FeeM ensures developers directly benefit from the traffic their apps bring to Sonic.  \
