Sony is developing 'Soneium', an Ethereum layer 2 blockchain platform aimed at creating new services across the Sony Group's businesses and intellectual property portfolio. The platform will be operated by Sony Block Solutions Labs, a joint venture with Startale Labs Pte Ltd.

Soneium is designed as a public blockchain with an open network allowing universal participation. Users can interact with web3 games and NFT marketplaces through Soneium-compatible applications using their digital wallets, offering a more decentralized experience than traditional internet services.

Key features and benefits:

• Comprehensive web3 infrastructure and application layer solutions
• Decentralized activity history management
• Creator rights protection
• New profit-sharing mechanisms for creators and fans
• Cross-platform integration between digital and physical worlds

Sony plans to release a testnet for developers to co-create applications using Soneium's technology. The platform aims to attract both experienced web3 users and newcomers by developing innovative use cases that leverage Sony Group's diverse business portfolio.
