Monad Labs built a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain that is fully Ethereum-compatible while delivering 10,000 TPS, 0.8s finality, and 0.4s block times through parallel transaction execution. Unlike competitors that fork Ethereum or build separate ecosystems, Monad scales the EVM itself using parallel execution across CPU cores while maintaining bytecode compatibility—so developers can deploy existing Ethereum apps without modifications. The network launched mainnet in November 2025 and has attracted $350M+ TVL with integrations from Circle, Chainlink, Coinbase, and MetaMask.

Zyber 365 is a Web3 and AI-based cybersecurity company building quantum-resistant blockchain infrastructure and decentralized security solutions. Founded in May 2023 by Pearl Kapur and Sunny Vaghela, the company achieved unicorn status within three months of launch through a $100M Series A from SRAM & MRAM Group. Currently pre-revenue with only a white paper published, the company plans to develop Layer-0/1/2 blockchains, AI-driven smart contract audit platforms, and a suite of Web3 infrastructure tools including decentralized identities, NFT marketplaces, and blockchain operating systems.
