 Along with the launch, Monad is rolling out a large ecosystem incentive program and early opportunities that are already attracting strong community attention.

Monad’s token economics are structured to support long-term ecosystem expansion while rewarding early adopters, builders, and liquidity providers. The MON token has a fixed total supply designed to fuel network security, incentivize growth, and power on-chain activity across DeFi , gaming, NFTs, and infrastructure.

Total Supply : 1,000,000,000 MON (1 billion tokens)

As part of the mainnet rollout, Monad introduced Monad Momentum, a major ecosystem growth program. More than 30% of the total MON token supply is reserved for building and expanding the network. The program will reward early users and developers through:

  • Airdrops from individual protocols
  • Extra MON rewards on top of protocol incentives
  • High yield and early-stage opportunities across the ecosystem

Monad has also released an ecosystem guide showing projects already building on the chain, with more expected to join throughout the Momentum phase.

The MON token is available on several major centralized exchanges . Coinbase also held a token sale ahead of the mainnet launch.

Multiple exchanges are expected to enable direct MON withdrawals to the Monad network, allowing users to avoid early congestion on bridges. Liquidity on decentralized exchanges is also expected soon, though official details are still pending.

Because Monad works like the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), users can quickly access the network using wallets they already know. Wallets currently supporting or preparing to support Monad include:

  • Rabby Wallet
  • MetaMask
  • Phantom (support expected soon)
  • Backpack

These wallets will allow users to send tokens, use dApps, and track balances on the new chain.

The official Monad Bridge will open shortly after the mainnet launch, but heavy traffic is expected in the early days, which may cause slower transaction times. 

For users looking for an alternative, Mayan Finance has confirmed support for Monad and will offer extra MON incentives to those who bridge early. 

This gives users two options at launch: wait for the official bridge to stabilize or use Mayan for a faster experience with added rewards.
