Monad

Mainnet since November 2025. An EVM-compatible L1 that executes transactions in parallel, aiming at thousands per second. Its official bridge (built on Wormhole) connects it to Ethereum.

Monad is an EVM L1 whose mainnet opened on 24 November 2025. Ethereum apps run unchanged, while it executes transactions in parallel with 0.4-second blocks, aiming at thousands of transactions per second.

An official bridge built on Wormhole connects it to Ethereum. The chain is less than a year old, so its figures move quickly. Gas is paid in MON.

How it looks in the city

It is a satellite town on an island out at sea. Because its own validators secure it rather than Ethereum, the city draws it as linked to the mainland only by a bridge. Building height is the market cap of this district’s main token.
