If you have deep conviction for Monad (we do), then stake your MON with Monad native- focused validators who are providing services to the ecosystem beyond the transaction processing service.
Cortex has been serving Monad since February- and will be ramping up more ways to reach users, builders, researchers
Everyone. Everywhere.
Staking with us supports the ecosystem growth.
One of the best compliments we ever got from a graduate (who is now founder of a successful mainnet project) was this:
You don’t teach people how to code, you train them to be builders, professionals, and founders
Daily reminder that no team that has built a blockchain has ever done so with the relevant background skills and experience across technical, business, and finance traits than Monad.
This matters.
Let’s Fkn GO!
Been waiting for this to be public.
Everyone knows I am not a trader and certainly not a perps guy, but what they’ve done with this app is converting me.
Easily the most FUN trading app I have ever seen.
User beware - HIGHLY ADDICTIVE UX
Oh, we can do something
Already got the Monad working groups chock full of seniors - and we certainly have a track record of serving large developer communities👀
@monad@StellarOrg This is awesome!! @spicytaco and his crew doing the hard work behind the scenes to make this magic. Best in the biz. Maybe we should do something for all these builders - hmmm if only there was something impactful 😏😎
Amen. Another example of why we are on Monad.
Not chasing grants or funding or what’s popular now.
Doing things right. For the right reasons. And for the long term.
People here on CT don’t have to “get it” now. They will.
It’s a very similar mindset for @Harkness_Labs
Recently I have shared this w/ a lot of excellent engineers who are curious about Monad (coming from other ecos)
I drop this & @category_xyz blog and tell em to come to the @Cortex_Global_ working group. They’re all 🤯🤯🤯

To the teams that shipped: judging you was brutal. The talent density was far beyond what we expected.
To the winners: thank you for setting a high bar - I am excited to see where you go from here.
To the mentors, judges and sponsors: thank you for your immense support throughout the last 8 weeks. We could not have done this without you.
Thank you for building on Monad.
Keep building in the Open, keep building on Monad.
The best part? 2/3 of these are focused on net new user audiences. Folks not yet using any blockchain anywhere.
And they don’t have to learn how to benefit from either one.
Our focus is on growing adoption. Meeting the world where they are.
Bringing Monad to them.
And of course @Harkness_Labs is cruising. Easily a major upgrade over every platform in its sector on or off chain (yes I own my bias)
We are close to opening waitlist for academicians and researchers all over the world who want to test and provide feedback.
As you saw, @WaterLe_MON took an Hon Mention at Metropolis
Meanwhile we have been growing our global net new user audience, working on stablecoin, staking, swap integrations and preparing for our beta testing. (Sign ups here https://t.co/LlmeoNhpG5)
Meanwhile that same team- reconvened the Monad working group (meet 2 times a week) to continue our work with MIP Labs & other explorations (DM if you’re interested in learning more)

One thing we know about the building process is to not let external conditions affect our process.
Over the past few months, 3 @Cortex_Global_ teams have been doing exactly that.
Our validator is on mainnet & will be in the active set any day now. ⬇️
WaterLeMON received an Honorable Mention at @monad's Metropolis!
A special moment for our team, validation of the vision that brought us here, and one more reason to keep building.
For everyone, everywhere 🍉🍋

Congrats to all who shipped! If you shipped an MVP in 6 weeks, you did something very special. Keep building.
To the winners- @Cortex_Global_ is here to serve if any of you have any needs.
Special shoutout to @WaterLe_MON for the Hon Mention.
On to the next on Monad
Yes, this is an actual doc
Monad allows me to create so many concepts that are actually feasible - far more than any other place I have been.
And with each passing day, more friends are joining me in this work. 2027 is going to be a wild adventure.
Calling all @monad_dev who are nerding out over the breakneck releases of various MIPs and upgrades.
The Cortex Working Group is ramping back up with the close of the Metropolis Hackathon.
If you are a serious engineer, love diving into really meaty stuff and asking really hard questions, then collaborating to answer them (and testing answers), please DM us so we can get you in.
Monad is moving fast, and we are getting more contributors engaged.
A GPL1 with privacy, BTE, MCP, etc all baked into the core protocol. With elite security practices and devex.
Yes. This DOES exist.
Monad and Category Labs are doing this work the right way. The long-term way.
It is super inspiring to see such ethical mature builders.
