General MONAD Discussion

since weekly discussion posts don't seem to be a thing anymore; I want to know what your thoughts on MONAD are lately, and what you've been doing with your MON.

I have a very strong feeling about MON's relatively near and long-term performance and have been aggressively building my bag. I'm staking natively and also have a bit liquid staked and looped, with a bit in pools too.

Basically just trying to accumulate as much as I can while we're still in winter. MON price seems to be building up momentum the last couple days; i think the chain really wants to spring and I'm excited for what the future will bring!

Recommend any dapps or games? Any strategies you'd want to share?

Let's talk Mon!

Monad Top Performance & Crypto Winter Almost Over

Monad is the 4th best performing coin out of the top 200 by market cap in the last 24 hours. Let's keep the momentum moving forward.

Also, according to my research it looks like this cycle's crypto winter is almost over. If we can just survive another two months, things should start to improve. Be sure to check out the 2nd image in this post. You can see the number of days from BTC peak to the bottom. The patten has been the same the last 12 years. Do you guys agree or do you think I am wrong?

Monad staking

So I staked my MON in gmonads website through the Backpack validator. I have a few questions.

If I want to unstake my MON because I urgently need the money, will I receive my coins immediately, or is there an unstaking period? How does the process work?

And one more question: what does the “Compound” option do, and what is it used for?

A plea to Monad Foundation/Monad devs: Please improve contract labeling and price feeds! Tax reporting is currently a nightmare

Hey Monad fam,

Since November 24th 2025, I have been diving deep into the ecosystem—providing liquidity, liquid staking, and engaged on a daily basis with various protocols. While the tech and the high TPS are incredible, the current state of on-chain metadata is making portfolio tracking and tax reporting very difficult. I'm not sure about other countries but this especially impacts US citizens.

Because the ecosystem is so new, several tokens don't have their prices published on major aggregators like CoinGecko or CoinMarketCap (For example aprMON has no published price history before January 31st, none of Neverland's many wrapped tokens have published price history anywhere) On top of that, many smart contracts, protocols, and LP positions are completely unlabeled on block explorers like MonadScan and MonadVision.

When everyday users try to plug their wallets into crypto tax software to reconcile their ledgers, the tools completely break down. Everything shows up as interacting with an "unknown contract" or holding a token with a $0 cost basis, leading to massive manual data entry.

A quick request to protocol teams and builders:

* Verify and Label Your Contracts: Please take the time to verify your smart contracts (using Sourcify or the explorer APIs) so they show up with proper names on MonadScan and MonadVision. Labeling your routers, vaults, and LP contracts is the easiest way to fix this.

* Push for Aggregator Listings: Prioritize getting your tokens listed on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko. If you are a DEX, ensure you have a reliable public API that tax tools can pull historical price feeds from.

* Standardize LP Token Metadata: Ensure that your liquidity pool tokens (especially for LSTs paired with MON) have clear, standardized ticker symbols in their metadata so automated trackers can easily identify the underlying assets.

* Support the Indexers: Make it as easy as possible for third-party indexers and tax software platforms to parse your contract's architecture by publishing clear documentation.

Building great DeFi protocols is awesome, but if users can't track their funds or legally report their taxes without spending dozens of hours manually auditing block explorers, it creates a massive barrier to entry.

Let's get this infrastructure sorted out early!

Additions I Included for You:

* Smart Contract Verification: Added a specific mention of verifying contracts (via tools like Sourcify) on MonadScan and MonadVision. This is the exact technical step developers need to take so the explorer stops displaying "unknown contract".

* DEX Price APIs: Added a point about decentralized exchanges providing public APIs. Tax software relies heavily on these APIs to pull historical daily prices when tokens aren't listed on CoinGecko.

* Standardized LP Metadata: Emphasized formatting the LP token data correctly on-chain so yield trackers know exactly what assets are inside the position.

Thank you very much for listening! Doing these easy things will make life so much easier for active defi users!

Building my first Monad app: Monad Momentum — a reputation platform for contributors

I’m starting a public build log documenting my journey as I create my first app on Monad.

A little background: I’m a digital marketer by trade and have spent years building websites, growing communities, and creating digital experiences. I’m comfortable with HTML and CSS, but my experience with deeper programming concepts has been limited.

For a long time, I’ve been on the side of helping projects grow through marketing and community. Now I want to learn the other side: building the products themselves.

Rather than waiting until I have every technical skill mastered, I decided to learn by building.

My goal with this project is not only to create something useful for the Monad ecosystem, but also to show other Monad enthusiasts that you don’t need to already be a senior developer to start creating.

Every ecosystem needs more than just engineers. It needs:

  • designers
  • marketers
  • community builders
  • storytellers
  • creators
  • people willing to experiment

The next generation of great applications will come from people combining their existing skills with new ones.

I hope this build log inspires more people to take their ideas off the drawing board and start building. Whether you come from marketing, design, content, business, or another background, there is a place for you in an ecosystem like Monad.

I’ll be documenting the journey as I learn, build, break things, fix them, and add new features.

Current Progress: Monad Momentum

Monad Momentum is a reputation and contribution platform designed for the Monad ecosystem.

The goal is simple:

Recognize and reward the people helping build Monad.

So far I have built:

✅ A Next.js application foundation
✅ A Supabase database backend
✅ User profiles
✅ Contribution tracking
✅ An XP-based reputation system
✅ Dynamic contributor profiles
✅ A leaderboard system
✅ The beginnings of a contribution submission platform

The current flow:

Contributor
     ↓
Submit contribution
     ↓
Contribution recorded
     ↓
XP awarded
     ↓
Reputation increases
     ↓
Leaderboard ranking updates

The long-term vision is to create a system that helps highlight the builders, creators, and contributors who are pushing the Monad ecosystem forward.

This is only the beginning.

I’ll add updates whenever there is a significant development, including technical milestones, lessons learned, and new features as Monad Momentum evolves.

You can follow the development journey through the GitHub repository and follow along on X to support the campaign.

Let’s build. 🟣z
