  Monad is a high-performance EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain designed for
  parallel execution and pipelined consensus, targeting 10,000 TPS with 1-second
  block time and single-slot finality while remaining fully Ethereum
  bytecode-compatible. Mainnet (chain ID 143, native token MON) launched on
  November 24, 2025 alongside a long-running public testnet. Developer surfaces
  include public JSON-RPC endpoints (rpc.monad.xyz, testnet-rpc.monad.xyz), an
  Ethereum-compatible JSON-RPC plus Monad-specific extensions, MonadVision,
  Monadscan, and Socialscan explorers, native EVM tooling (Foundry, Hardhat,
  Remix), indexers (GhostGraph, QuickNode Streams, Envio HyperIndex), and a
  Staking API and Machine Payments Protocol.
