description: 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.
