cofounder / GM @monad 💜

Leave me feedback:

[Keone Hon @keoneHD]

What Monad has so far:

- High quality open-source C++/rust codebase with many HFT-style optimizations and architectural changes

- Public audits and clear docs that put the technology first. Transparency -- no hand-waving, no unsubstantiated claims

- High-performance system focused on true decentralization, running continuously in testnet with 186 globally distributed validators at 5000-10000 tps

- MonadBFT, a frontier consensus mechanism featuring 400ms block times, 800ms finality, large globally-distributed validator set, and tail-fork resistance

- Async Execution (while supporting EIP-7702 through the Reserve Balance mechanism)

- MonadDb for efficient merkle trie storage

- Native code compiler for frequently used contracts

- Interconnected community of smart, thoughtful crypto-natives who will grow in influence over the next few years

- Ecosystem of promising young startup founders, ready to take their shot

- Over $100m in ecosystem funding pre-mainnet

- Founder support through DeltaV, the Monad Founder Residency, Monad Madness, and more

- Monad Momentum, an incentives program focused on efficient UA and repeatable growth loops to help decentralized apps acquire normie users

- A north star of making open-source, decentralized systems more powerful

But there's still so much more to do. Are you excited?

Excited to work with the @monad team to bring our vision to life.

We’re building toward a future where accessing global markets is simpler and more accessible, without compromising on the breadth, liquidity, and performance users expect from traditional capital markets and investing infrastructure.

The Monad team shares this vision and we’re committed to working together to make it a reality.

Lots more to come.
