CFTC Chair Mike Selig Says Agency Is Preparing for Onchain Finance, Mass Tokenization, Agentic Finance and 24/7 Markets
this is exactly why the world needs Monad
always good to see L1s competing on latency again
next step for Monad is Cadence, estimated ~100ms blocks, ~200ms finality, speculative finality ~167ms across hundreds of globally distributed validators
+ no single proposer monopoly on the block
can't be a blockchain optimist without being a Monad optimist
can't be an EVM optimist without being a Monad optimist
can't be a decentralization optimist without being a Monad optimist
can't be an onchain maxi without being a Monad maxi
pivoting from being a skeptic to a builder is such a beautiful character arc
hope we see more and more people going from doubt to building, trading and experimenting on Monad
I actually don't think there was a single day since mainnet without new announcements from Monad or ecosystem projects
there's always something happening
Monad will eventually become the default starting point for both builders and new users
there won't even be a question where to start
you'll just start on Monad, the default blockchain
Monad doesn’t just make transactions extremely cheap (or even free with MetaMask gas sponsorship)
it also has a custom base fee controller that responds to demand very smoothly:
- fees rise slowly during sustained high demand
- short-lived demand spikes get smoothed out
- and base fees drop quickly when block demand falls
literally the best gas design for any scenario
