Monad offers developers the best of both worlds. Their new blockchain aims to handle 10,000 tps with one-second block times and instant finality—while preserving full EVM compatibility for applications and infrastructure.
The network consists of a large number of nodes operated by independent entities, which validate transactions and assemble them into a canonical order; these entities must stake valuable assets to participate and risk losing part of their stake if they misbehave. Independence and the threat of penalties ensure that node operators will never engage in computation suppression or submit incorrect results. As a result, anyone can deploy dApps to the network, and anyone can make function calls to existing dApps. Permissionlessness and decentralization are essential for user trust.
Decentralized applications (dApps) are programs uploaded to a network of servers maintaining a blockchain. The code and complete state of each program are replicated across every participating server. Users interact with these programs via function calls. Statefulness allows programs to deliver appropriate interactions for each user.
They are laying the foundation for a world of mass cryptocurrency adoption, with a mission to empower developers to build dApps that will change the world.
