Monad
An EVM-compatible Layer 1 attempting to turn high throughput and consumer-grade onboarding into durable application demand.
Why it is on the radar
Mera passkey library released
Monad highlighted Category Labs' Mera, an experimental open-source library designed to let applications create or protect blockchain accounts with passkeys. The release targets a persistent onboarding bottleneck; adoption and retention—not the announcement alone—will determine its economic relevance.
The 360 Vantage
Thesis and failure mode
Qualitative MRTNZ judgment, explicitly separate from observed market data.
Mera and adjacent developer tooling reduce onboarding friction while applications convert Monad's performance into sustained users, fees and liquidity.
Better onboarding fails to create durable activity, while a low circulating share, dilution risk and intense Layer 1 competition overwhelm token demand.
Observed performance
What the market has done
Returns are historical provider snapshots, not forecasts.
Token structure
Supply and dilution
Supply figures reflect provider-reported circulating, total and maximum units.
Fully diluted valuation is $2.15B, or 8.5× current market capitalization. That gap is a supply-risk flag, not a prediction of future value.

- 02Active addresses, fee revenue, stablecoin liquidity and developer deployment
