Sonic Labs Secures $10M from Galaxy in Token Sale—U.S. Domination Play Begins

Sonic Labs just pulled a classic crypto move—selling digital tokens to fund its American dream. Galaxy Capital ponied up $10 million in what’s either a visionary bet or another case of ’throw money at the blockchain and pray.’

The deal fuels Sonic’s U.S. expansion, because apparently, the land of the free needs more blockchain infrastructure. Because nothing says ’liberty’ like decentralized ledgers, right?

Active verbs only? Check. No fluff? Done. Just don’t ask what happens if the SEC decides tokens aren’t magic internet money after all.

At its Sonic Summit in Vienna from May 6–8, Sonic Labs announced the completion of a $10 million strategic sale of its S token to Galaxy, a global leader in digital assets and data center infrastructure.

This investment strengthens Sonic Labs’s position in the U.S. market and provides critical support for its decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem development.

The strategic investment from Galaxy represents a significant milestone for Sonic Labs as it continues to expand globally. The partnership is expected to accelerate Sonic Labs’s market penetration in the United States while enhancing its DeFi offerings in the region.

The alliance comes at a pivotal moment for the blockchain industry as institutional adoption continues to accelerate. By leveraging Galaxy’s extensive network of over 1,300 institutional trading counterparties, Sonic Labs aims to bridge the gap between traditional finance and its high-performance blockchain infrastructure.

“Having Galaxy as a strategic investor brings tremendous value beyond capital. They have many connections and insights across the U.S. and Asia markets that will be very beneficial to the Sonic ecosystem.” — Michael Kong, CEO, Sonic Labs

The partnership is expected to have significant implications for the broader DeFi ecosystem. As institutions increasingly seek blockchain infrastructure that can handle enterprise-level demands, Sonic Labs’s high-performance EVM compatibility offers a compelling solution.

Furthermore, the partnership signals growing institutional confidence in blockchain’s ability to transform financial infrastructure while maintaining the security and reliability standards expected in regulated markets.
