Monad in numbers: how to read the network dashboard
The network page shows the latest block, average block time and transactions per second over the last 100 blocks, gas used against the limit, and the base fee. Each figure carries its source and the time it was read.
How Monad's parallel EVM handles DeFi contention
Monad executes transactions optimistically in parallel and re-executes any that read state an earlier transaction changed. Popular pools are hot state, so swaps into the same pool behave as if serial while unrelated work runs alongside.
Monad gas: the limit is the bill
Monad charges a transaction for its gas limit, not just the gas it used. A generous limit costs real MON. Estimate, add a small margin, and set the limit tight.
What the daily Monad report measures
The daily report lists block and fee statistics, chain TVL, stablecoins and DEX volume from DefiLlama, and new verified tokens and pools. It is descriptive only and marks any failed source as unavailable.

Monad is a layer-1 with its own BFT consensus; Base and Arbitrum are rollups that inherit Ethereum's finality. The monad-vs pages put consensus, EVM compatibility, finality and live DefiLlama figures side by side with sources.
