What Does Monad Do Differently?
Monad introduces deep optimizations across the entire blockchain stack, with four key innovations:
1. Optimistic Parallel Execution
Allows parallel execution of transactions using multiple virtual machines.
Predicts dependencies to avoid conflicts.
Then merges results sequentially to maintain correct order.
Result: Much higher throughput without sacrificing correctness.
2. Asynchronous Execution
Separates consensus and execution.
While the next block's consensus is happening, the current block is being executed.
This pipelining maximizes resource usage and minimizes latency.
3. MonadBFT (Consensus Protocol)
A custom version of HotStuff BFT with fewer communication steps (2 instead of 3).
Optimistically progresses rounds based on network latency.
Helps speed up finality and improve overall consensus performance.
4. MonadDB (State Database)
A custom-designed database optimized for parallelism.
Stores most data on SSDs instead of RAM, drastically reducing hardware requirements.
Enables low-cost node participation, which improves decentralization.
๐งฉ In Summary: The Purpose of Monad
Monadโs purpose is to:
Drastically increase the speed and efficiency of EVM-compatible blockchains (from ~10 TPS to ~10,000 TPS).
Lower hardware barriers so more users can run nodes, boosting decentralization.
Maintain 100% compatibility with Ethereum smart contractsโno code changes needed.
Enable a scalable, secure, and affordable base layer for Web3 apps.
It aims to finally deliver on the original promises of blockchains: scalability, decentralization, and performance, without sacrificing compatibility with the existing Ethereum ecosystem.
