At Monad, we are building a next-generation Layer-1 blockchain designed to push the boundaries of what is possible in decentralized computing. By leveraging the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), the foundational engine that powers Ethereum and countless networks built on top of it, our mission is to deliver an ecosystem where developers can deploy existing applications seamlessly — without friction, rewrites, or interoperability concerns.

EVM compatibility is central to our approach. It allows every Solidity smart contract, every Ethereum-native tool, and every familiar workflow to migrate to Monad instantly. For the global Ethereum developer community, this means full access to a higher-performance environment without sacrificing the standards, tooling, or codebases they rely on today.

Yet our ambition extends far beyond compatibility. We are designing a reimagined, streamlined version of EVM execution from the ground up — engineered specifically to address the well-known scalability constraints limiting Ethereum and other EVM-based chains. Issues such as bottlenecked throughput and high transaction fees stem from one core architectural challenge: sequential execution.

On Ethereum, throughput averages around 10 transactions per second (TPS). Even the fastest EVM networks today reach only about 200 TPS — far below what is required for mainstream consumer-grade decentralized applications. Meanwhile, non-EVM blockchains like Solana achieve significantly higher real-world TPS due to their adoption of parallelized execution.

At Monad, we are advancing this approach even further. By introducing parallel execution directly into an EVM-compatible environment, we aim to unlock dramatic performance improvements — enabling our blockchain to process thousands of transactions per second while maintaining decentralization, security, and developer flexibility. This blend of power and compatibility is core to our long-term vision of a performant, accessible blockchain ecosystem capable of supporting the next generation of Web3 applications.

Growing the Monad Community: A Global, Developer-First Ecosystem

Our community has become one of our strongest assets. Across 𝕏, Telegram, and Discord, our team engages directly with developers, contributors, and users — fostering open conversation, gathering feedback, and continuously refining the ecosystem as we move toward mainnet.

• On 𝕏, we share updates rapidly and empower a wave of user-generated content that amplifies awareness and strengthens community identity.

• On Telegram, we facilitate real-time dialogue, assess sentiment, and provide up-to-date project information.

• On Discord, we go deeper — hosting detailed technical discussions, gathering meaningful feedback, and iterating on improvements alongside thousands of community members.

These digital ecosystems have allowed us to cultivate one of the most passionate and engaged communities in the blockchain space — a growing force now eagerly awaiting the mainnet launch.

Impact and the Road Ahead

As Monad advances toward mainnet, our focus remains on scaling infrastructure, ensuring rigorous security standards, and expanding the base of developers building within the ecosystem.

With a combination of EVM compatibility, parallel execution, and a forward-looking architectural vision, Monad is positioned to become a key driver in the evolution of decentralized computing.

We believe the innovations we are introducing will set a new standard for what Layer-1 blockchains can achieve — and we are excited to bring these capabilities to developers and users around the world as we enter the next phase of our journey.

How to Get Started with Monad

As we approach mainnet, users and developers can prepare to enter the Monad ecosystem by setting up the official Monad Wallet — the most secure gateway for interacting with the network.
The Monad Wallet is designed to provide safe, reliable storage for MON, our native token, and to ensure full compatibility with all upcoming network upgrades.
By using the official wallet, users are protected from phishing attempts, counterfeit applications, and unsupported third-party tools. For anyone looking to participate in the Monad ecosystem from day one, the Monad Wallet offers the safest and most trusted way to manage assets, stake, and engage with the expanding landscape of dApps built on Monad.
