MegaETH and Monad are both next‑gen EVM chains with different technical routes.
MegaETH is an ultra‑fast Layer‑2 rollup on Ethereum, built for real-time interaction - sub‑10 ms block times and 100 000 TPS thanks to a centralized high‑performance sequencer and EigenDA for data availability.
Ideal for high‑frequency trading, gaming, DeFi, AI integration, and real‑time apps.

MegaETH is not a direct competitor to
Monad in terms of architecture:
MegaETH focuses on L2 speed while inheriting Ethereum security.
Monad builds an independent L1 focused on parallel execution and developer‑friendly composability.
Your choice depends on priorities:Do you want maximum real-time throughput and ultra-low latency MegaETH or on-chain decentralization and L1 level composability Monad?
