What is a Monad RPC Node?
Access the performance-optimized EVM
A Monad RPC node provides applications with access to the world's fastest EVM-compatible blockchain. Monad's revolutionary architecture enables 10,000+ TPS and 1-second finality while maintaining full compatibility with Ethereum tools and contracts — representing the next evolution in blockchain performance.
What makes Monad revolutionary
Monad doesn't just incrementally improve blockchain performance — it fundamentally reimagines the execution layer. Through parallel execution with optimistic concurrency control, pipelined consensus, and asynchronous I/O, Monad achieves 1000x improvement over traditional EVM chains while remaining 100% compatible with existing Ethereum applications.
Monad advantages:
- 10,000+ TPS — 1000x faster than Ethereum
- 1-second finality — instant transaction confirmation
- Parallel execution — optimistic concurrency control
- EVM compatible — deploy Ethereum contracts unchanged
- MonadBFT — pipelined consensus for efficiency
- Strong backing — $225M+ from top-tier VCs
Monad's technical innovations
Parallel Execution: Monad uses optimistic concurrency control to execute transactions in parallel, automatically detecting and resolving conflicts. This approach dramatically increases throughput compared to sequential execution.
MonadBFT: A pipelined consensus mechanism where block proposal, voting, and execution happen simultaneously rather than sequentially, eliminating idle time and maximizing efficiency.
Deferred Execution: State updates are computed asynchronously, allowing validators to quickly reach consensus on transaction ordering before expensive execution occurs.
Monad architecture:
- Validators reach consensus on transaction order (MonadBFT)
- Transactions execute in parallel with optimistic concurrency
- MonadDb efficiently handles state storage and access
- Conflicts detected and resolved automatically
- Finality achieved in ~1 second
EVM compatibility
Monad maintains full EVM bytecode compatibility — existing Ethereum smart contracts work without modification. Developers use familiar tools like Hardhat, Foundry, and Remix, making migration from Ethereum seamless while gaining 1000x performance improvement.
