Why am I bullish on @megaeth_labs?
Yes we already have a bunch of scalable chains out there. However, there is no real-time EVM. Scaling from 10 to 100 or 1000 TPS is great for UX. Yet, it doesn't solve/overcome the limitations of onchain programmability that make many high-performance use cases hard or even impossible to realize.
We're talking high-frequency CLOBs, real-time gaming, or highly responsive, Web2 style social app experiences that require not only high levels of TPS but also very low latency.
On MegaETH with <5ms latency and 100k TPS, all of this becomes possible, significantly broadening the Web3 design space.
The fact that it is specifically scaling the EVM, which is still by far the most adopted environment for blockchain development, allows the ecosystem to tap into the largest pool of dev talent in our industry, which combined with the capability of the tech to support novel use cases, makes for a powerful mix.
MegaETH is built on Ethereum, settling execution proofs on the L1, while leveraging @eigen_da for high-throughput data availability, which is a key enabler to its up to 100k TPS, and an Ethereum-native choice that comes with crypto-economic security backed by >$13B in restaked $ETH.
As opposed to a standalone L1, MegaETH also has a native bridge to Ethereum, and can tap into a liquidity base of >$72B and thousands of users seamlessly and securely.
The market for general-purpose chains (especially EVM) is increasingly saturated, and consequently, new chains going to market will have to increasingly find niches, identify strong USPs, and cater to specific market segments better than existing infra can.
It's why in an ever-growing sea of chains, I bet primarily on app-specific systems (Hyperliquid's HyperCore or @bullet_xyz and/or ecosystems that have clear differentiators (e.g. MegaETH's real-time EVM, @fluentxyz's Wasm-based blended execution or HyperEVM with its HyperCore precompiles allowing to leverage powerful CLOB infra & price feeds), or specialized infra layers (pre-dominantly ZK and AI).
Also considering the healthy ecosystem growth (pre-mainnet) and the strong community with a certain level of hype constantly being maintained, I'm pretty sure MegaETH will be one of the biggest / most successful launches of the cycle.
