MegaETH is an EVM-compatible blockchain with real-time Web 2.0–level performance. Learn more about MegaETH.

 has long been a formidable challenge for the blockchain industry. Most established chains maintain decentralization and security, but struggle with limited scalability while high-performance 

 (L1) blockchains often compromise decentralization to achieve high throughput. 

What if we could push throughput to unprecedented levels without compromising security or decentralization? 

Enter MegaETH — a project backed by industry leaders such as Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, ConsenSys CEO Joseph Lubin and Dragonfly Capital. With the first real-time 

 (EVM)–compatible chain —i.e., one that can process transactions as soon as they arrive, and then publish the resulting state changes — MegaETH aims to redefine blockchain performance. In this article, we delve into the scaling limitations of current blockchains and examine how MegaETH aims to solve them. Let's dive in!

The blockchain trilemma has posed a significant challenge for 

 developers for years. As Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin explains, distributed ledger networks can only achieve two out of three critical qualities (security, decentralization and scalability) by using simple techniques. 

As a result, most high-performance chains, such as Solana, Avalanche and BNB Chain, often compromise on decentralization or security to achieve scalability.

To address the scalability challenges of L1 networks, developers have introduced 

 (L2) solutions, which operate on top of blockchains such as Ethereum. These L2 chains achieve 

 (TPS) while leveraging the security and decentralization of their underlying L1s. However, according to MegaETH, both high-performance L1 and L2 networks fall short of meeting the demands of Web 2.0–scale applications, particularly in terms of 

As shown in the table above, the blockchain with the highest scalability, opBNB, achieves a gas rate of 100 MGas/s, equivalent to 650 Uniswap swaps or 3,700 

 transfers per second. In comparison, modern databases can 

 over 1 million TPC-C TPS. While Arbitrum One, the fastest chain listed, offers a block time of 0.25 seconds, this remains insufficient for applications requiring rapid feedback or high update rates. 

These limitations in both scalability and speed make current high-performance L1s and L2s ill-suited for Web 2.0 applications with significant computational demands.

 is an EVM-compatible blockchain with real-time Web 2.0–level performance. With the goal of bridging the gap between distributed ledger networks and traditional cloud computing servers, the project aims to push the performance of Ethereum-based L2s to hardware limits. As the first real-time blockchain, MegaETH can stream transactions at 100,000 TPS with transaction fees under $0.01, and provide millisecond-level responsiveness without sacrificing security or decentralization.

MegaLabs, the organization behind MegaETH, was founded in early 2023 by Shuyao Kong and Yilong Li. Holding an MBA from Harvard Business School, Kong has a background in business development within the blockchain industry. Prior to co-founding MegaLabs, she was the global head of business development at ConsenSys, where she continues to serve as an advisor.

As the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of MegaLabs, Li has a PhD in computer science from Stanford University. An experienced software developer, he previously worked at Runtime Verification Inc., a firm specializing in software analysis tools and the application of formal methods to improve computing systems.

Together, Kong and Li founded MegaLabs in early 2023 to leverage their business development and computer science expertise to build MegaETH as the first real-time blockchain.

 $20 million of funding in a single seed round at a 9-figure valuation. The round was led by Dragonfly Capital, with other notable venture capitalists including Figment Capital, Folius Ventures, Robot Ventures, Big Brain Holdings, Tangent Ventures and Credibly Neutral. In addition to VCs, MegaETH is backed by high-profile angel investors, such as Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, ConsenSys CEO Joseph Lubin and EigenLayer creator Sreeram Kannan.

 on crypto trader Cobie’s decentralized fundraising platform, Echo. The round was fully funded within minutes and oversubscribed, showing significant investor demand.

MegaETH achieves over 100,000 TPS with less than 1 ms latency and block time, as well as transaction fees under $0.01, via two core features: a heterogenous blockchain architecture and a hyper-optimized EVM execution environment.

MegaETH's heterogeneous blockchain architecture enables network nodes with different hardware configurations to specialize in specific tasks to boost performance.

There are three types of nodes: sequencers, full nodes and provers. With cutting-edge hardware, a small set of sequencers conduct performance-critical tasks such as transaction execution. Simultaneously, a massively decentralized network of full nodes performs security-critical duties such as block validation. Provers have the lowest hardware requirements, and focus on providing L2 proofs to full nodes.

Hyper-Optimized EVM Execution Environment

MegaETH provides a hyper-optimized EVM execution environment to push latency, throughput and resource efficiency to hardware limits. Consequently, the real-time blockchain can process large volumes of transactions as soon as they arrive, and publish the resulting state changes in a few milliseconds.

To enable real-time EVM execution, MegaETH co-designed a low-latency, streaming-based block-building algorithm with a concurrency control protocol supporting transaction prioritization.

MegaETH's real-time blockchain scales without sacrificing decentralization and security through the following key components and features.

 is an extension of the MegaETH core team. It consists of a group of 10x builders hand-picked by MegaETH developers. According to the project, MegaMafia participants have "an internal compass guiding them toward crypto's world domination."

MegaETH defines three common qualities for MegaMafia members:

MegaETH is setting a new standard for blockchain scalability, addressing long-standing limitations without compromising decentralization or security. By combining innovative architectural decisions with technologies like real-time EVM execution, in-memory computing and smart contract JIT compilation, this real-time L1 chain delivers unmatched performance tailored for Web 2.0–scale applications.

Supported by high-profile investors, such as Vitalik Buterin and Joseph Lubin, MegaETH is poised to bridge the gap between blockchain and traditional computing, unlocking new possibilities for decentralized applications. The project is on track to launch its testnet in early 2025, with the mainnet rollout soon thereafter.

Since the advent of technology, life has changed for the universe as innovations continue to enter the world. One such notable entrant into the tech space is 

 which allows for speedy, private, transparent and visible peer-to-peer transactions on the web.

Another trailblazing technology that continues to change the world as we know it is artificial intelligence (AI). Through AI, machines can simulate human problem-solving intelligent behavior to enable multitasking, reduction of human error, better productivity and much more.

As a network, Fetch.ai seeks to combine these two disruptive technologies to open up the world to a highly efficient, decentralized, autonomous economy.

 (FET) is an open and permissionless network leveraging AI to create a decentralized machine-learning system that can execute tasks on the blockchain. Fetch.ai is basically an AI network for blockchains. 

As an interchain protocol,  Fetch.ai provides an open market decentralized framework that harnesses the power of AI to implement peer-to-peer automated applications without human interference.

 (IEO) on Binance Launchpad, Fetch.ai seeks to connect devices autonomously and provide an infrastructure for the operation of Internet of Things services through the exchange of data.

By incorporating innovative technologies such as 

, Fetch.ai aims to provide a unique value proposition for a wide range of users such as developers, financial service providers and many other economic players. 

Fetch.ai’s ecosystem is powered by FET which is the network’s native cryptocurrency and also an 

Since Fetch.ai is a multi-utility network, it combines a 3-pillar framework consisting of Autonomous Economic Agents, an Open Economic Framework, and Smart Ledgers.

The Fetch.ai ecosystem uses a principle of AI known as Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) which allows agents to work in harmony despite being heterogeneous. An agent is a part of the software that represents an entity, and through its autonomy, it can operate independently (without its owner’s influence) and continuously make decisions on its behalf. 

What makes agents unique compared to other protocols like smart contracts, is that they can react to environmental changes and make proactive decisions to reach their goals. 

Since all agents have different capabilities, their interaction allows them to tap into the available resources to help them achieve their owner’s goals. As such, Fetch.ai provides the tools and technology needed by sectors such as 

Critical to the AI-based operation of Fetch.ai are 

 (AEAs). An AEA is an independent agent acting on behalf of an individual, organization or any other entity whose primary goal is to generate economic value for its owner.

The agent-based model of the AEA framework provides solutions to real-world problems. In the short term, AEAs can be deployed to get rid of repetitive tasks, facilitate micro-transactions and even simplify interactions with 

However, the AEAs require support to properly execute their tasks to achieve their economic goals. That’s where the Open Economic Framework and a Smart Ledger come in.

 (OEF) contains protocols, languages and market mechanisms that facilitate communication and exchange of information between agents. Put simply, OEF provides a decentralized virtual environment that supports APIs for AEAs.

, which is the Fetch.ai mainnet, is a new form of smart contract-enabled ledger that consists of blockchain elements of Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs). It contains built-in AI based on notarized DAG technology that supports millions of economic agents and logs all transactions made on the blockchain. 

All of the data transactions are optimized to be faster and cheaper with a sharded ledger design that allows for cross-chain transactions to be executed in parallel through resource lanes. In its testnet, FET holders can participate as validators and operate nodes to help secure the network. 

The multi-agent systems on Fetch.ai are designed for multi-stakeholder environments. 

Some of the main systems that facilitate entities to achieve their goals using Fetch.ai are:

 helps businesses to gain quality insights that translate to better business decisions by integrating machine learning models across data sets. With enhanced edge analytics, users can identify hidden patterns, make real-time decisions and improve operations.

Data privacy is paramount and Axim guarantees state-of-the-art privacy-preserving techniques by providing full user control.

 is a combination of blockchain and proxy re-encryption technologies that allows users to safely share files and have complete control and visibility over their data-sharing process. It’s the go-to for advanced 

 and privacy. DabbaFlow promotes the decentralization of encrypted data and the information is only made available to the intended recipients.

 is a collective learning system that enables stakeholders to participate in machine learning model collaborations. The building and training of these AI models do not require sharing of underlying data. And with DabbaFlow encryption, data security is guaranteed. The building of such powerful AI models helps businesses to gain valuable insights from confidential data without compromising security. 

FET is Fetch.ai’s multi-purpose native token and is used as the key medium of exchange on the platform. FET is used to pay for Fetch.ai services, deploy AI agents and network transaction fees. Users can also

While initially issued as ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum network, the team at Fetch.ai had a bigger vision of launching a mainnet that would provide the scalability that Fetch.ai applications require. Thus came the launch of the Fetch.ai Mainnet on Mar 31, 2021.

While the ERC-20 tokens are still in circulation, with the Fetch Network set up, users can now use the native tokens to procure services from Fetch.ai. Its upgrade to 

The strategic integration of artificial intelligence with blockchain opens up Fetch.ai to limitless opportunities in many industries. As many enterprises and organizations transition into 

, Fetch.ai will provide a framework to facilitate the adoption of relevant applications.

FET token entered the market through an IEO at $0.0867 in February 2019. Upon getting listed, its price dropped sharply from $0.35 in the first week of March 2019 to find support at slightly below $0.10 in mid-May 2019. 

After a slight price correction, FET price slid further down for many months and touched a low of $0.01 in March 2020. However, 2021 was a good year for FET. The token opened the year at around $0.08 in January but by the end of March, FET had pumped by over 10X to trade at $0.82. The pump was in line with the network’s mainnet launch at the end of March 2021.

FET price corrected in the following weeks after the massive pump and found support around $0.18 in June. Shortly after, FET experienced another price rally that lasted for months and climaxed at its highest price so far of $1.17 on Sep 8, 2021. 

Since then, the token’s price has gradually declined to fall below $0.10 by September 2022. However, FET started pumping from early December 2022 following an increased trading volume with the release of the Fetch Wallet. FET price now stands at $0.24, with a market cap of $252,450,736 (as of Jan 16, 2023).

 are a little less optimistic about the Fetch.ai price and predict a maximum price of $0.0375 by end of 2026. 

The AI-based model of Fetch.ai is relevant to the technological revolution taking place as it combines blockchain and artificial intelligence, two emerging technologies that look set to shape our future. As more companies embrace the web3 movement, the architectural framework developed by Fetch.ai provides a good foundation for businesses to easily build relevant applications in line with consumer demands through machine learning. 

That said, it’s important to note that the crypto market is a highly volatile market. We always advise you to do your own research before investing in any crypto asset. 

The automation and AI capabilities of the Fetch.ai network provide real-world solutions to all kinds of challenges as industries such as healthcare, manufacturing and financial services shift toward digitalization. 

Through the use of the MAS, Fetch.ai has created a machine-powered ecosystem operating in a decentralized virtual economy. The project is one to watch as it continues to disrupt different sectors through both AI technology and blockchain.
