I asked the same question to 20 projects in the @monad_xyz ecosystem:
"Why did your team decide to build on Monad?"
You can see all the responses in this post—be sure to read until the end.
@kizzymobile
"Monad is setting new standards in crypto with its mission-driven team, unique community, and exceptional execution. We’re proud to be building Kizzy on a blockchain that hasn’t fully productized yet but has already excelled in community, ecosystem, and events like Monad Madness Bangkok.
We immediately resonated with Monad’s vision and future, realizing it was a perfect fit for us. Monad excels at innovation, redefining the EVM ecosystem to meet modern needs—and this kind of innovation is exactly what Kizzy, as an innovation-driven app, looks for when choosing a chain."
@RareBetSports
"Support: It's rare to find an ecosystem where everyone is willing to help from top to bottom. Whether founders introduce you to useful protocols or community managers recommend perfect tools to keep the community active, the support is outstanding.
Technology: With 10,000 TPS and a testnet already as stable as mainnet, all major infrastructure has supported Monad from day one. From Wormhole and Fastlane to Phantom and Backpack, all key players are in place.
Community: Where Monad truly shines! With an active community, on testnet launch day we saw over 10,000 testers participate, helping shape the project and uncover those tricky edge cases.
Events: RBS has achieved massive success and built strong connections through various events. We won first place at Monad Madness—an absolute game-changer for us. Our app gained attention, and our story and team became stronger. Every time we're invited to an event, we leave with fresh ideas and new connections.
Monad Team: They have some of the best people building Monad, and these same people also help teams build on Monad. We’ve sought help countless times and always received answers within seconds."
@chogstarrr
"We chose to build on Monad because of its culture—Monad’s ecosystem is still young and organic—it isn't dominated by whales or hype cycles. It’s a place to build real developers, real communities, and real culture from the ground up. That’s exactly what Chogstars aims to do.
We want to be early adopters, grow with the chain, and help define what NFTs on Monad should look like: fun, accessible, community-driven, and focused on long-term growth."
@naddotfun
"Because we are Monad OGs. My founder (@0xLilmon) was once just a Monad community member. He loved the vibe, met the team in person, and decided to launch a project on Monad."
@spikynads
"When I first joined Monad, I had no idea what the hell was going on. It felt like memes only, no tech—I really couldn’t adapt.
A month later, I decided to give it another try, and with help from Erdinç, Port, Baikan, and Rizerya, I quickly fell in love with the community. It felt like joining a friend group I’d always needed.
I became very active—chatting, creating art, connecting—and that caught Jakx’s attention. He reached out and asked if I’d manage his NFT project’s community.
At the time, I didn’t know Jakx and wasn’t sure about risking the reputation I’d built on Monad, but I couldn’t resist. I loved the Monad community so much that I felt a deep desire and need to contribute on another level."
@DrakeExchange
"Great question—we chose Monad for several reasons:
-
We believe its underlying architecture is strong enough to support our vision of a fully on-chain CLOB (centralized limit order book).
-
We were already part of the community and found it unlike any we’d experienced before (we’ve been in crypto a long time). After attending Monad Madness and meeting everyone in person, this feeling became undeniable.
-
The support from the Monad Foundation is unlike anything we've seen. They’re fully involved in developer and dApp development, providing intros, resources, advice, and support whenever and wherever we need it.
-
There’s also a strong value proposition in launching a new project on a new chain. Growing from the ecosystem’s starting point is incredibly rewarding."
@ChogNFT
"We want Chog to have a larger footprint in Web3.
We see its potential and aim to develop it into one of the best NFTs on Web3."
@lootgo_official
"Monad is a great grassroots community with many end users, while many other communities are mainly composed of developers/builders. From day one, I think products built on Monad have more end users.
Most importantly, every member of the Monad team is exceptionally talented, friendly, and helpful. The community reflects these traits as well. We want to build in an ecosystem full of such people."
@skrumpeys
@melooox3 (lead of Skurmpey) wrote an excellent thread where you can see the question and his response.
@showdown_gg
"Speed, cost, and community are key factors. Low-latency transactions are crucial for platforms like Showdown, where reward claims, loot box redemptions, and betting transactions must be instant, and fees must be negligible.
Monad’s execution layer enables parallel transaction processing, making it faster than older chains while maintaining EVM compatibility.
Another major reason is Monad’s community-first approach. From day one, Monad has focused on building an ecosystem where developers, projects, and users actively contribute and benefit.
Building on Monad is exciting because it’s a newer chain—we work closely with the team to ensure smooth integration, and we also get the chance to help shape the ecosystem early. The Monad team is extremely supportive, and their vision aligns perfectly with ours—to create an environment where blockchain gaming can thrive."
@the10kSquad
"Monad is where I learned crypto, where I met thousands of friends. It’s my crypto home—I don’t want to build anywhere else."
@BreathOfEstova
"Ketama started Breath of Estova back in 2018 or even earlier, but he didn’t have the time or funds to finish the game. So at the end of 2023, we all joined Monad—he got the idea to launch here because it felt like home during the first few months.
So for us, it’s not just about good tech or being amazed by 10k TPS. Of course, building on such an excellent chain allows us to achieve incredible scalability."
@BlockNads
"It all started two years ago. Bensage, Buiciber, and I were initially enthusiasts dedicated to improving our skills in our respective fields. Our passion for art, combined with a strong desire to do something different from the copy-paste chaos of the NFT industry, led to the birth of BlockNads.
The next natural question was which chain to build this novel idea on. At that time, Monad already had an existing community that was growing further by cultivating a truly thriving culture. All we needed to do was build upon this existing community and culture, adding our own flavor.
As upcoming founders, we knew launching on an already established blockchain would be challenging since we wouldn’t know anyone. Choosing a chain that was experimenting with new things—still undeveloped but with an existing community and culture—made perfect sense. That’s why we chose Monad."
@mace_ag
"We previously built on Solana, but realized Monad had huge potential, and our unique DEX aggregation implementation would complement Monad’s fast TPS, async execution, etc. Additionally, we trust the founders and their ability to achieve their goals, so we decided to build natively on Monad, as we plan to build long-term and don’t want to switch chains later.
Our positive experience on testnet further confirmed our decision was right!"
@slmndNFT
"We’ve supported Monad for over a year. Building elsewhere was never an option."
@NoMoLonelyLife
"1. The community is highly active offline;
2. Parallel EVM doesn’t change EVM;
3. Monad’s bubble is unaffected by market movements;
4. Most members of the Monad community are Web3 newcomers with limited financial means (more incentive-sensitive);
5. KOLs on Monad have no influence outside of Monad, meaning all traffic is private domain traffic (an ideal PMF testing environment);
6. 95% of community members come from educated lower social classes and younger generations (students), who are our ideal customers."
@monks_xyz
"I decided to build on Monad because it’s the best L1 I’ve ever seen—Monad is what Ethereum should have been from the start."
@MagmaStaking
"We decided to build on Monad because it just made sense. The speed they’re pursuing on an EVM chain was impossible to ignore, and we wanted to be part of it and contribute by building a project that adds security and stability to Monad.
Monad truly has the potential to bridge the gap between the Web3 dream and the reality of mass adoption."
@Bober_xyz
"Simply put—community and support."
@monda_exchange
"First, to make my friends rich; second, to achieve my own goals; third, because it’s the best blockchain in existence, and likely will remain so throughout this decade."
