Original Title: A Step-by-Step Guide to Interact with the Monad Testnet

Original Author: Asher, Odaily Planet Daily

In April last year, Monad, a mega-project that received a $225 million investment led by Paradigm, is finally open for interaction. Last night, Monad made an announcement on the X platform that the Monad Testnet is now officially live and has distributed test coins to over 8.8 million active Ethereum addresses.

The Monad Testnet is now officially live

Next, Odaily Planet Daily will guide everyone through an overview of Monad and how to participate in the Monad Testnet interaction promptly.

Project Introduction

Monad, developed by the Pyth and Solana teams over more than two years, is a high-performance EVM-compatible L1 public chain. According to the official documentation, Monad defines itself as a PoS-based EVM-compatible high-performance L1 chain that aims to pioneer new public chain possibilities through the execution pipeline of Ethereum transactions. Its key innovations include MonadDB (a database designed specifically for Ethereum state access) and Optimistic Parallel Execution (ensuring high TPS with minimal overhead). By separating the consensus layer from the execution layer, Monad further enhances scalability, enabling developers to build applications that require outstanding performance and low latency.

Monad's groundbreaking progress has positioned it as a robust platform for enterprise-level applications, providing developers with the tools needed to create high TPS DApps while maintaining compatibility with Ethereum, embracing the future of blockchain innovation.

On the evening of April 9, 2024, Monad Labs announced a $30 billion valuation and completed a $225 million funding round led by Paradigm, with participation from Electric Capital and Greenoaks. As one of the most promising projects in the Layer 1 space, Monad, which emphasizes the concept of "Parallel EVM," aims to introduce a "parallel processing" execution layer scaling solution to significantly improve network execution efficiency while remaining 100% EVM bytecode compatible.
