Uniswap Integrates with Soneium, Sony's Layer 2 Chain for Onchain Entertainment

Uniswap Labs has completed the integration of its decentralized exchange (DEX) protocols with Soneium, the entertainment-focused Layer 2 blockchain co-developed by Sony Block Solutions and Startale Labs.

This integration will introduce Uniswap’s signature exchange capabilities—including token swaps, liquidity provision, and asset bridging—to the Soneium network. It's part of a broader initiative to facilitate seamless value transfer within entertainment ecosystems, encompassing digital collectibles, NFTs, and tokenized intellectual property.

Sony has been making significant strides in the Web3 domain with Soneium, the Layer 2 chain launched in January 2025. Aimed at revolutionizing entertainment experiences, creator empowerment, and IP protection, Soneium has already powered diverse initiatives.

These include the minting of NFTs for the hit anime “Solo Leveling” to be sold on the Soneium network, exclusive fan collectibles at J-Pop concerts, and onchain ticketing for idol group events.

“Our goal is to build a world-class blockchain ecosystem for creators, fans, and developers in Japan and around the world. Uniswap Labs’ commitment to accessibility and innovation aligns with our vision for Soneium as a platform that fosters creativity and economic opportunity,” said Jun Watanabe, Chairman of Sony Block Solutions Labs.

Uniswap: A Catalyst for Creators

Uniswap’s integration is poised to be a pivotal moment for Soneium, providing the essential infrastructure to break down asset silos that hinder the full monetization potential of creators.

With its permissionless exchange capabilities across platforms, Uniswap will equip creators with the tools they need to distribute their work, swap tokens seamlessly, and gain value for their creations in a frictionless environment.

“We are excited to see what new possibilities this integration will unlock for the Soneium community,” added Startale Labs, which is co-building the Soneium Layer 2. “This marks a major milestone for accessibility and growth within the DeFi ecosystem.

By combining Uniswap Labs’s leading DEX with our Layer-2 network, we are building a seamless, creator-led economy.”

The partnership between Uniswap Labs and Soneium signifies the increasing convergence of major brands and cutting-edge blockchain technology.

As institutions like Sony step fully into the crypto sphere, new avenues for innovation in the digital entertainment landscape are rapidly emerging.
