Monad

Overview

Monad is a high-performance Ethereum-compatible L1 blockchain. Monad materially advances the efficient frontier in the balance between decentralization and scalability. Monad's improvements address existing bottlenecks while preserving seamless compatibility for application developers (full EVM bytecode equivalence) and users (Ethereum RPC API compatibility).

Faucet

You can use a faucet to obtain free testnet Monad for development and testing purposes.

Units

Each Monad is comprised of 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 (1018) wei, so not even a single monad can be stored numerically without exceeding the range of JavaScript numbers. Gas fees are denoted in gwei.

  • 1 mon = 1018 wei
  • 1 wei = 10-18 mon
  • 1 gwei = 10-9 mon

For that reason, only string balance properties are available, which are balanceString, confirmedBalanceString, and spendableBalanceString.

Tokens

The Monad blockchain natively supports tokens.

Stake

Staking is out of scope for these chains as they don’t have native support for them.
