Why Monad?

Speed is everything. And Monad delivers it without trade-offs.

What Makes Monad the Perfect Fit for Bolt?

→ Unmatched Speed With up to 10,000 transactions per second, 0.4s block times, and 800ms finality, Monad gives Bolt the real-time execution users expect, especially in fast-moving markets like memecoins and trending tokens.

→ Zero-Gas UX Monad’s near-zero gas fees allow us to abstract away the complexity of gas entirely. No need to hold a native token to make a trade.

→ 100% EVM Compatibility Everything built on Bolt benefits from the full power of the Ethereum ecosystem, without rewriting code, rebuilding tooling, or sacrificing composability.

→ Scalable Decentralization Monad’s low hardware requirements and custom database (MonadDB) make node operation affordable, paving the way for meaningful, sustainable decentralization as the network scales.

→ Optimistic Parallel Execution Unlike traditional blockchains that process transactions one by one, Monad runs transactions in parallel, enabling true performance without breaking compatibility.

We’re building for the next 100 million users. And that requires infrastructure that can actually scale.

Monad is that foundation.
