Monad is a high-performance EVM-compatible Layer 1 with impressive technical architecture—parallel execution, 10,000 TPS target, and low latency—that has attracted a passionate community and strong funding. However, the project is deeply polarized: supporters praise the tech, speed, and community bonds formed during testnet, while a substantial portion of the community feels betrayed by the airdrop distribution, which heavily favored influencers and external crypto participants over testnet users who spent months testing and providing feedback. The core tension centers on broken trust—many early supporters view the tokenomics as extractive and the community rewards as unfair, with testnet participants receiving minimal allocation despite their contributions, while others remain bullish on the technical foundation and long-term potential.

“why monad?”I’m super bullish on Monad because it’s the only blockchain that gets it right by making smart, intentional tradeoffs instead of chasing perfection. Unlike other chains that end up with messy, unplanned flaws, Monad’s team designed it to be solid fast enough, decentralized enough, and built for real DeFi use cases like atomic composability and application-specific sequencing, without forcing builders like me to compromise. Chains like Solana or Ethereum have cool features but also dealbreaker issues, like missing key DeFi functions or bloated ecosystems. Monad’s thoughtful design and stable foundation make it the best choice for serious builders. The team’s hard work shows in the details, and that’s why I trust it for the long haul.

“MONAD”Monad is that L1 anyone shouldn't missed out on. TPS is topnotch, testnet is fun. By now, I've known which dapps I will be interacting with on mainnet. Kizzy is one haha. I know you don't want to miss out on this. Take Monad serious even though airdrop is not promised. Come mainnet, I will be on the winning side that prints.

“Good tek , Stacked & Humble team , Goated community”My first introduction to the Monad ecosystem was in early 2023 during the initial onboarding phase when getting NADS was still relatively easy. At the time, I was skeptical. It felt like just another emerging Layer 1 product, so I didn’t engage much in discussions or conduct deep research. Everything changed a few months later when I met the Indonesian leader behind Molandak Sapphire. After a few conversations, I realized the founders were not only incredibly capable but also humble and genuinely open to feedback. One thing that stood out was how casually and sincerely the founder remembered the names of many community members. That level of personal connection is rare and meaningful. As someone who has been vocal in providing both positive and critical feedback, I believe Monad is on the right track. The team listens, responds, and continually improves. Ofcourse they are not perfect! They have also been active globally, hosting local events in Thailand, New York, Hong Kong, Korea, and many other regions. These events make Monad one of the most community-engaged chains I have encountered. I’ve had the chance to meet new friends in real life and connect with people who share similar interests. Later on, I also joined Chogstarr, a PFP NFT project built on Monad, where I took the role of lead in marketing. The support from the Monad team has been outstanding, especially from Karma, Tunez, and Keone. Their backing of the NFT space is impressive, including initiatives like Mach2, an incubator that provides feedback, guidance, and learning opportunities. They’ve brought in experts like Wale, Captainck, and Armani Ferrante to help NFT builders grow and thrive. Overall, Monad has proven to be more than a high-performance chain. It is a builder-first ecosystem led by a grounded team that values community, collaboration, and continuous learning. I’m excited to see where it goes next.

“차세대 블록체인 출현!”모나드 블록체인은 기존 개발도구를 이용하지 않고 독자적인 방식으로 솔라나와 이더리움의 장점을 혼합한 L1 체인을 만들고 있다. 또한, 모나드의 단단한 커뮤니티는 어느 체인보다 두드러진다. 최근 테스트넷을 시작하고 빠른 응답속도 및 생태계의 다양성을 확보하여, 많은 크립토인들의 기대를 받고 있다.

“Non contento”Non sono molto contento di come hanno gestito l'airdrop. Ho farmato la testnet assiduamente ma non hanno premiato molto i tester.

“Monad - Turbocharging EVM for Real-World Web3”I’ve been following @monad for a while now, and what truly impresses is the way they’re rethinking the EVM rather than just iterating on it. Monad delivers up to 10,000 TPS, near-zero fees and full EVM compatibility -letting developers migrate seamlessly while majorly upgrading performance. The testnet is live and accessible at testnet.monad.xyz, signalling serious momentum. With parallel execution, a custom database layer (MonadDB), and optimized consensus, this isn’t just another L1 - it’s the infrastructure that could empower the next wave of DeFi, gaming, and mass dApps.

“Solid and deliberate building”I’ve been tracking Monad for a while now and noticed their methodical approach to building their product and community. Wishing them the best of luck on their Testnet and Mainnet launch.

“The ecosystem that reignited my love for NFTs”Things are quiet but deep on the Monad side. Less talk, more infrastructure. Gas is cheap, speed is high, and the developer base is rock solid. From investors to creators, everyone’s out here laying bricks. It’s not just hype like before this time, there’s something real underneath. And yeah… I think I’m falling for it all over again.

“Good Project But Unfortunately Tokenomic Distribution is Bad”Monad is one of the many Layer1 projects that is in the spotlight with a solid community on X discord and telegram, the organic vibe community is really crazy but unfortunately the Team made a lot of decisions that disappointed the community and many of the community left the project. The Team is too focused on giving rewards to big accounts giving very large allocations, Many of my friends are active in this community to the point that they come several times to their offline events. Hanging out every day on their discord channel securing roles that are ultimately useless. Have spent more quiet money effort but the results are very disappointing. What must be learned from here is. You have the most sophisticated technology but if there is no community that supports and is disappointed with you it is all the same as a big 0. Many do not learn from previous projects, one example is Zksync, Starknet, Linea look at the time from testnet to mainnet all the people who initially supported it became haters. Please appreciate the people who have put effort into your project thank you

“The testnet community is not valued at all.”situation where the earliest users, who invested time, feedback, and effort before anything was proven, feel overlooked once growth and narratives take center stage. These contributors helped identify bugs, shape UX, and stress-test the system, yet their role fades when incentives shift toward new users and public traction. When a testnet community isn’t properly acknowledged, it creates silent frustration and erodes trust. Early believers start to feel like disposable resources rather than foundational partners. Valuing a testnet community isn’t just about rewards, but about recognition, continuity, and respect showing that early contribution matters just as much as later adoption, if not more
