Overview
Somnia ($SOMI ) is an EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain (compatible with Ethereum), developed by the Virtual Society Foundation (backed by Improbable and MSquared).
The focus is on real-time applications such as games, the metaverse, and decentralized social networks — where high performance and low latency are required.
Outstanding technology
Processing bandwidth of over 1 million transactions per second (TPS), with confirmation time under 1 second (sub-second finality).
Applying the MultiStream Consensus mechanism, accelerated sequential execution, and the ICEdb database helps optimize extremely fast transaction processing.
Set goals to support applications that require handling a large volume of users such as blockchain games, creator-centric ecosystems, and Web2-like UX.
SOMI Tokenomics & Airdrop
SOMI is a token with a fixed total supply of 1 billion tokens, used for staking, transaction fees, governance, and fueling the Somnia ecosystem.
The tokenomics is deflationary: 50% of gas fees are burned, helping to reduce the circulating supply over time.
Airdrop of 5% (50 million SOMI) through the Binance HODLer Airdrops program, requiring BNB to be placed in Simple Earn/On-Chain Yields during the Snapshot phase, with a 60-day lock-up (20% released upon receipt, the remaining vesting weekly).
List & Trading
Binance will open Spot trading from 2/9/2025 at 14:30 UTC, with pairs SOMI/USDT, USDC, BNB, FDUSD, and TRY, accompanied by the 'Seed Tag' program to control early market manipulation.
Pre-market futures have been operational since 25/8, with a maximum leverage of 5×, attracting significant speculation from traders.

Quick Conclusion
Somnia is a high-performance Layer-1 blockchain, aimed at serving games, the metaverse, and real-time interactive web3 applications. Those who prefer a platform with 'beefy' throughput and a creative ecosystem should follow this project. However, the next action should be to patiently observe and assess actual adoption, especially as SOMI enters the fomo phase from airdrop and listing.
