Sony-backed Soneium plans token and AI licensing fees

  • —Soneium's TVL dropped 95% to $9.4M from $203M in May 2025
  • —The network processed 163,691 transactions in 24 hours for just $118 in revenue
  • —The AI licensing system would use the proposed ERC-8432 standard
  • —No launch date has been confirmed for the $SONEIUM token
Why it matters: Soneium is betting on blockchain-based copyright payments for AI, but with no named AI partners or TGE date, the plan has yet to restore confidence in the network.
