How is the reconstructed Sonic developing now?

Sonic has been attracting market attention. Andre Cronje has been active, interacting closely with the ecosystem community and updating a number of technical advances. At the same time, the high returns and various gameplays of point incentives in the DeFi projects within the ecosystem continue to attract new users, and the ecosystem TVL has rapidly grown to US$1 billion.
In the current context where EVM public chains are generally facing performance bottlenecks and Layer2 solutions are emerging in an endless stream, the technical evolution path chosen by Sonic is obviously unique: while maintaining full EVM compatibility, it achieves performance breakthroughs through underlying architecture reconstruction. According to actual tests, Sonic has achieved a transaction speed of over 10,000 TPS. In comparison, Ethereum's TPS is only 30, and Fantom's is 2,000, while Sonic's actual performance and theoretical potential are already far ahead. The strong performance release provides support for the high-throughput scenarios of the Sonic ecosystem.
If the traditional EVM is an old family car, then SonicVM is a fully modified supercar. SonicVM ensures compatibility with Ethereum's old code while significantly improving performance. On the Sonic Labs official website, it is mentioned that the core selling point of SonicVM is lightning-fast execution and reduced application crashes, which is particularly critical for Sonic with high throughput requirements.
SonicDB is the storage layer of the Sonic blockchain. Its core innovation is to change the way traditional blockchains store data. Traditional blockchains generally use tree structures such as Merkle trees to store data. Although this method is convenient for verifying data integrity, it will generate a large amount of redundant data. SonicDB uses a flat storage design to directly organize related data together, reducing the depth of the data storage hierarchy.
