FAQs
What types of applications are best suited for Monad?
Any application that requires high throughput and low latency benefits from Monad. This includes stablecoins, payments, decentralized exchanges, consumer-facing apps, gaming, and DeFi protocols that need instant responsiveness and scalability.
What is RaptorCast?
RaptorCast is Monad’s block propagation system, designed to transmit blocks efficiently across the network. It reduces latency and ensures validators receive new blocks quickly, which is critical for maintaining 400ms block times.
What is Asynchronous Execution?
With Monad, consensus and execution are pipelined. Consensus finalizes the transaction order, and execution then proceeds in parallel with the next consensus round. This allows the full block time to be used for execution, rather than sharing time with consensus, greatly improving throughput.
How fast is Monad compared to Ethereum?
Ethereum processes ~10 TPS with 12s block times and 12–18 min finality. Monad processes 10,000 TPS with 400ms block times and 800ms finality.
Why is Monad important for stablecoins and payments?
Stablecoins and payment rails require cheap, fast, and reliable infrastructure. With 10,000 TPS, sub-second finality, and negligible fees, Monad makes stablecoin transactions instant and scalable, opening the door for global consumer payments and remittance use cases.
