**Monad** is a high-performance L1 platform compatible with Ethereum. Monad significantly pushes the boundaries of efficiency in the tradeoff between decentralization and scalability.

*   **Invested:** $244,000,000
    
*   **Investors:** Paradigm, DragonFly Capital, OKX and others
    
*   **Chat and channel with support:** [https://t.me/cryptonaito](https://t.me/Cryptonaito)
    

Before you start working, you can check your account in [**Monad Explorer**](https://testnet.monadexplorer.com/) (test tokens of 1-10 $MON tokens were awarded)

*   Now let's add the network manually or on [the site](https://testnet.monad.xyz/)
    
*   Name: Monad Testnet
    
*   Chain ID: 10143
    
*   RPC: [https://testnet-rpc.monad.xyz/](https://testnet-rpc.monad.xyz/)
    
*   Explorer: [https://testnet.monadexplorer.com/](https://testnet.monadexplorer.com/)
    
*   Token: MON
    
*   Now follow [**the link**](https://testnet.monad.xyz/) and connect the wallet
    
*   Click " **Get Started** "
    
*   **Next we insert our EVM** wallet address
    
*   Below we press the button " **Get Testnet MON** "

Note! The number of tokens issued varies in faucets. If you have **0.01** $ETH on your balance in the **Ethereum Mainnet** network , you will be given **2** $MON tokens. If you do not have tokens in the main network, you will be given **0.05** $MON

If you have the " **Full Access** " role in the developer's Discord community, you will receive $ **5MON**

Next, connect to Discord below
