Monad

Monad is a next-generation, Ethereum-compatible chain delivering 10,000 TPS, sub-second finality, low fees, and scalable decentralization.

## Overview Monad is a Layer 1 blockchain designed to provide Ethereum-compatible execution with significantly higher throughput and lower latency than the mainnet. It targets 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) with sub-second finality, addressing two of the primary constraints facing Ethereum users: transaction speed and gas fees. Unlike sidechains or rollups that settle to Ethereum, Monad operates as an independent chain that maintains EVM compatibility, meaning smart contracts and applications built for Ethereum can run on Monad with minimal or no code changes.
