The Sophon mainnet will be launched within the year. The initial deployment of SOPH is not considered an official TGE.

Odaily News According to official news, Sophon said the mainnet is expected to be launched before December 2024. The SOPH token will be deployed along with the mainnet genesis. However, in order to ensure a stable and secure launch, the token will not support public access in the initial stage. During this period, the team will provide a gas-free experience for all users. Please note that this initial token deployment is not considered an official TGE, and the event is expected to take place at a later date to ensure a smooth launch. More details about the SOPH token economics will be shared in the future. Sophon Guardian is the backbone of the network's operational infrastructure. Guardian has the right to run a Sophon node through an exclusive membership, initially bound to a Sophon node purchased during the node sale. In addition, starting this week, the team will announce the full list of mainnet launch partners one by one. Earlier in early October, Binance Labs announced an investment in ZKsync's "elastic chain" Sophon. The specific amount has not been disclosed yet. It is reported that Sophon uses Matter Labs' modular open source framework to build a second-layer network. The mainnet will be launched next month and the token will be deployed soon. It is reported that Sophon's total financing amount has exceeded US$70 million so far.
