# How do SONs impact me?

You can think of SONs as a two-way street. The value of two blockchain tokens is going back and forth safely and smoothly.

To paint a picture, let’s imagine you’re sending your bitcoin from an address to a sidechain. This bitcoin is then represented on the other side of the new blockchain. You are then able to move this represented bitcoin without touching your original bitcoin.

This offers scalability for bitcoin. For example, let’s say another blockchain can perform 50,000 transactions per second. Now Imagine being able to operate your bitcoin at that speed. This opens up endless possibilities about the applications Bitcoin could be used in.

It could really be the answer for worldwide adoption.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://community.peerplays.com/technology/sidechain-operator-nodes-sons/new-to-sons/how-do-sons-impact-me.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
