✈️Sonic Airdrop Distribution

Sonic Points + Gems on Snake Finance

The Sonic Airdrop is part of Sonic Labs' ecosystem incentive program. Sonic Points are user-focused airdrop points that can be earned as part of the ~200 million S airdrop. Designed to boost liquidity on Sonic and strengthen its ecosystem, Sonics' points program aims to position Sonic as a premier hub for all of DeFi.

In Season 1: To earn Sonic Points, users must hold and use whitelisted assets across various DeFi apps. These points will be distributed over multiple seasons as NFT positions, ensuring long-term sustainability and preventing sudden supply shifts. The first season began with Sonic's launch and concluded on June 18th 2025.

Snake Finance participated in Season 1, where activity on Snake’s Forests, PSM, and Nest contributed to Sonic Points and Gems accrual.

Season 1 Summary:

  • Sonic Points Used:

    • 100% of Sonic Points from Forests, PSM, and Silo were used for $gSNAKE buybacks.

    • These buybacks directly enhanced protocol-owned liquidity and bolstered $gSNAKE demand.


  • Sonic Gems Usage:

    • 100% of Sonic Gems from Season 1 were distributed to Nest stakers, proportional to their share of the Nest.

    • This allocation rewarded the most loyal and value-aligned stakeholders in the Snake ecosystem.



Snapshot Timing:

  • Snapshots for Season 1 were taken on the final date of Season 1. No further claims are needed by users who were staked or actively participating in Snake’s products.

Season 2 (Ongoing):

Sonic Season 2 Airdrop

Sonic Labs has officially launched Season 2 of its $S airdrop program, emphasizing real activity, protocol revenue, and user loyalty over passive holding. Snake Finance remains a core integrated protocol, with enhanced eligibility for Sonic Points, Gems, and broader user incentives.


Key Season 2 Upgrades from Sonic Labs:

  • No More Passive Points Users no longer earn Points for simply holding whitelisted assets. Instead, activity like staking, harvesting, and LP deposits drive value

  • Loyalty-Based Points Boost The longer and more consistently users interact, the more multipliers they receive on their Points. This favors committed users over short-term rotations

  • Gems = Revenue-Weighted In Season 2, Sonic Gems will track protocol revenue rather than total value locked (TVL). This aligns deeper incentives toward usage-heavy dApps like Snake Finance.

  • Start Date: June 18


Snake Finance’s Role in Season 2:

Snake Finance has been fully integrated for Activity Points on Sonic Labs. This includes:

  • Forest Farms: Activity in whitelisted LPs (e.g., x33/USDC, USDC/aSonUSDC, aSonUSDC/xUSD) earns Sonic Points for users.

  • PSM & Silo Interaction: Dynamic usage of Snake’s PSM and claim mechanisms also counts toward activity tracking.

  • Nest Staking: Nest stakers indirectly benefit via $gSNAKE buybacks funded by Sonic Points and potential Gem distributions.


Benefits to Users:

  • Earn More by Doing More: Whether you're staking, harvesting, or zapping in LPs, your real activity counts more than passive deposits

  • Points Fuel Buybacks: 100% of Sonic Points earned by Snake are used to buy back $gSNAKE from the open market—supporting price and protocol health

  • Gem Rewards Stay in the Nest: Just like in Season 1, Snake has opted to distribute ALL Sonic Gems to Nest stakers based on stake size and engagement
