Monad gears up for MON token launch with 100 billion supply

Monad is preparing to launch its MON token with a whopping 100 billion supply, sparking dilution concerns within the community.

Summary
  • The 100 billion MON supply has sparked debate on crypto X over potential inflation and token value dilution.
  • Despite these concerns, the mainnet launch is highly anticipated due to successful testnet and strong backing from top-tier VCs.

Monad, an Ethereum-compatible Layer 1 blockchain, has announced that its upcoming native gas token, MON, will have an initial supply of 100 billion tokens.

The announcement has sparked debate on crypto X, with some users raising concerns about potential dilution and long-term inflation, with some even jokingly calling it “Monad Inu” — implying that the enormous 100 billion supply makes it resemble a memecoin rather than a serious utility token.

However, others pointed out that such a large supply makes sense in case of Monad. As user @wyckoffweb explained, with block times of 400 ms and high throughput, the network will process massive numbers of micro-transactions, and such a large token supply ensures transaction fees remain tiny and manageable without awkward decimals.

Moreover, the price per MON is determined more by the network’s fully diluted valuation at listing than by raw supply. For example, a $1 billion FDV would imply roughly $0.01 per MON, whereas a $100 billion FDV would price it at $1 per MON, showing that distribution and valuation are far more important than the sheer number of tokens.

As for the launch itself, the mainnet and TGE are expected in late September, marking the point when MON will officially become the network’s native gas token. The token will be used for transaction fees, staking, and ecosystem incentives, supporting DeFi, NFT, and gaming applications on the platform.

This launch is highly anticipated as Monad is backed by top-tier VC firms, including Paradigm and Dragonfly Capital, and features 10,000 TPS, sub-second finality, and low transaction fees. The public testnet, launched in February, has been highly successful, attracting significant activity: over 2.44 billion successful transactions, 34 million contracts deployed by roughly 3 million creators, and daily peaks of 34 million transactions in early August.

Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council

The post Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Michael Saylor and a group of crypto executives met in Washington, D.C. yesterday to push for the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill (the BITCOIN Act), which would see the U.S. acquire up to 1M $BTC over five years. With Bitcoin being positioned yet again as a cornerstone of national monetary policy, many investors are turning their eyes to projects that lean into this narrative – altcoins, meme coins, and presales that could ride on the same wave. Read on for three of the best crypto projects that seem especially well‐suited to benefit from this macro shift:  Bitcoin Hyper, Best Wallet Token, and Remittix. These projects stand out for having a strong use case and high adoption potential, especially given the push for a U.S. Bitcoin reserve.   Why the Bitcoin Reserve Bill Matters for Crypto Markets The strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill could mark a turning point for the U.S. approach to digital assets. The proposal would see America build a long-term Bitcoin reserve by acquiring up to one million $BTC over five years. To make this happen, lawmakers are exploring creative funding methods such as revaluing old gold certificates. The plan also leans on confiscated Bitcoin already held by the government, worth an estimated $15–20B. This isn’t just a headline for policy wonks. It signals that Bitcoin is moving from the margins into the core of financial strategy. Industry figures like Michael Saylor, Senator Cynthia Lummis, and Marathon Digital’s Fred Thiel are all backing the bill. They see Bitcoin not just as an investment, but as a hedge against systemic risks. For the wider crypto market, this opens the door for projects tied to Bitcoin and the infrastructure that supports it. 1.
