Mint satUSD and Earn Rewards Natively on Sonic

River Launch on Sonic

River, the circulatory system for crypto, is now live on Sonic—an ultra-fast Layer 1 built by the Fantom team.

This launch expands satUSD access and brings River’s stablecoin, yield, and contribution infrastructure into Sonic’s high-throughput, low-fee ecosystem.

What’s New on Sonic

Built on LayerZero’s OFT standard, satUSD enables seamless, omni-chain minting without bridges or wrappers.


Why Sonic

Sonic delivers sub-second finality, 2,000+ TPS, and near-zero fees. Its EVM compatibility and developer-aligned incentives make it a powerful environment for DeFi growth.

River’s deployment brings stablecoin-based capital coordination to Sonic’s performance-driven infrastructure.


How to Get Started

  1. Visit app.river.inc/mint
  2. Connect to Sonic
  3. Swap USDC for satUSD
  4. Provide satUSD-USDC liquidity on Shadow
