While explaining the difference between Sophon and existing blockchains like ZKsync Era, Optimism, and Arbitrum, Seb emphasized that Sophon is more focused on retail and user experience rather than liquidity and DeFi-oriented services.<i><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also freely share your thoughts and comments about the topic in the comment section.
