PANews reported on November 11th that, according to The Block, Japan's Startale Group, in partnership with Sony Block Solutions Labs, has launched the "Startale App," serving as a unified entry point and ecosystem hub for Sony's Ethereum Layer 2 network, Soneium. The application will provide users with access to token generation events (TGE), airdrops, and rewards.

Startale App employs account abstraction technology to enable gas-free transactions and mnemonic phrase-free login, and supports developers in building Mini Apps to improve ecosystem usability. CEO Sota Watanabe stated that the application aims to eliminate the "user experience barriers" of Web3, making the on-chain experience as intuitive as using mainstream apps. The app is currently in closed beta testing.
