visualized:

the real time message passing of 186 nodes reaching consensus every 400ms

they follow a leader to all --> all to all --> all to next leader path

this is a live look of consensus happening around the globe, not a premade rendering

About Monad

Monad is a high-performance, Layer 1 blockchain that aims to address the scalability limitations of existing networks, particularly Ethereum, while maintaining full compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This means developers can deploy their existing Ethereum smart contracts and use familiar tools (like MetaMask) on Monad without modification.

Here's a brief overview of its key features and benefits:

  • High Throughput and Low Latency: Monad is designed to achieve an impressive throughput of up to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) with sub-second finality. This is a significant improvement over Ethereum's current capabilities.

  • EVM Compatibility: Full bytecode compatibility with the EVM allows for seamless migration of decentralized applications (dApps) from Ethereum, reducing the barrier to entry for developers.

  • Parallel Execution: Unlike many traditional blockchains that process transactions sequentially, Monad employs optimistic parallel execution. This allows multiple transactions to be processed simultaneously, greatly boosting throughput and efficiency.

  • MonadBFT Consensus Algorithm: Monad uses a custom Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) consensus algorithm called MonadBFT, which is an optimized derivative of HotStuff. This mechanism streamlines communication between nodes, contributing to faster block finalization.

  • Asynchronous Execution: Monad decouples transaction execution from consensus, allowing the network to finalize the ordering of transactions before they are executed. This enhances efficiency and scalability.

  • MonadDB: A custom-built database system designed for optimal performance, MonadDB efficiently stores and manages the blockchain's state, enabling fast data access crucial for parallel execution and reducing hardware requirements for nodes.

  • Near-Zero Gas Fees: By significantly increasing network capacity and efficiency, Monad has the potential to offer much lower transaction fees compared to more congested chains.
