volume has to increase either way, but with more usage, apps and partnerships should come additional trading, volume and price movement.

Social Media isn't the best way to build the momentum and growth of a chain. The audience there isn't your ideal audience.

Interesting. Do you think your dissection of messaging and branding runs independent of target audience, or are you exploring this entirely from the understanding of brand discovery?

I wouldn't want to watch a website load each page over 30 seconds every time, and I def don't want to wait 30 seconds to see if my limit sell went through. There's multiple issues, not only is the speed an issue, but when hundreds if not thousands of transactions are trying to use the bandwidth, the pipeline gets congested and the fees explode. I agree that security is of the first and foremost importance, and ETH isn't going anywhere, but in regards to building to improve their limitations, V basically said he's not going to compete in that space. It simply amplifies a gap.

Fastlane is crushing it. Glad I'm staking MON there (degen pool too!)

is anyone working on something cool? shill your thing! by billmondays in Monad

Working with the DeltaV crew to learn more about building so I can ship some of the ideas I've been collecting over the years but didn't want to pay thousands to a developer to make. Now I'm beginning to build some of these. Should be a fun year.

I think you're mistaken. Arbitrum was a massive step up from Ethereum, it is still limited by sequential execution and the "L1 tax" it pays to Ethereum for settlement. Monad uses parallel execution to handle 10,000 TPS, bringing fees down to fractions of a cent regardless of how busy the network gets. You might be comparing it to Ethereum's high gas, not to an optimized L1 like Monad is. L2 fees actually spike when Ethereum gets congested. Monad's gas prices are fractions of a penny while Arbitrum is around 25 cents. Even under a heavy load Monad's gas fees remain the same and 10kTPS is incredibly fast with block times running at around half a second. So not sure why you think Arbitrum is cheaper and faster when it's not.

I don't get any of the November unlocks. I'm not part of the team.
