Band Protocol Goes Live on Monad Mainnet
Band Protocol, a leading cross-chain oracle platform, is now live on the Monad Mainnet, bringing fast, decentralized, and cost-efficient data feeds to one of the most performant EVM Layer 1 chains to date. This marks a pivotal moment in Monad’s evolution—ensuring its developers have access to reliable, real-time price oracles starting from the very first block.
After a successful integration on Monad Testnet earlier in 2025, Band now enters production, delivering a crucial data layer that enables builders to deploy fully functional financial applications from Day 1. With this deployment, Band reinforces its commitment to supporting emerging high-throughput chains with secure and verifiable off-chain data.
Band x Monad: Unlocking the Next Generation of On-Chain Finance
Monad is a high-performance, EVM-compatible Layer 1 optimized for scalability, throughput, and ultra-low latency—capable of processing 10,000 transactions per second with 500ms block times and 1-second finality. But speed alone isn’t enough to power real DeFi—reliable data is essential.
Enter Band Protocol.
With its modular oracle network, Band provides Monad with:
🔹 Fast and low-latency price updates
🔹 Tamper-resistant, decentralized data aggregation via BandChain
🔹 Low-cost oracle access for high-frequency applications
🔹 Seamless compatibility via Band’s EVM Standard Reference Contracts
This allows Monad developers to build lending markets, perpetual DEXs, synthetic assets, and more—without compromising on price integrity or protocol security.
Live Price Feeds from Launch
At launch, Band offers secure and production-ready price feeds for:
USDC
USDT
SOL
ETH
WBTC
These assets form the backbone of most DeFi systems. With accurate feeds in place, developers can immediately deploy protocols for:
Lending & borrowing
Liquidation engines
Synthetic asset creation
Perpetual trading
Risk management tools
Band’s early presence ensures that Monad’s DeFi stack is not only fast—but also trust-minimized and data-rich.
How It Works: Band Oracle Architecture on Monad
Band’s integration on Monad leverages its Cross-Chain Oracle Network, delivering a fully decentralized data relay pipeline from BandChain to Monad Mainnet:
Data Sourcing – Band validators pull real-time prices from trusted sources (e.g., CoinGecko, CEX APIs).
Decentralized Aggregation – Through BandChain’s delegated proof-of-stake (dPoS), validators finalize consensus on each price update.
Data Relay – Finalized data is sent to Monad, optimized for high throughput and minimal latency.
On-Chain Access – Monad apps can query Band’s standardized reference contracts (via proxy) for reliable price data.
This architecture guarantees verifiability, redundancy, and resilience—with zero reliance on centralized relayers or opaque update logic.
Security First: Proven, Auditable, and Battle-Tested
Band Protocol has consistently prioritized security. With years of mainnet uptime, zero exploits, and fully auditable infrastructure, it has proven its reliability across multiple chains. Every price update on Monad is:
✅ Verifiable on BandChain
✅ Tamper-resistant
✅ Consensus-validated
✅ Publicly auditable
BandChain ensures that all oracle data delivered to Monad remains censorship-resistant and manipulation-proof, protecting protocols and users alike from oracle-based vulnerabilities.
Key Use Cases on Monad
Thanks to its low latency and cost-efficient model, Band opens the door for a wide range of next-gen use cases on Monad:
🔹 High-Frequency DeFi – Perpetual DEXs, AMMs, and trading platforms with sub-second updates
🔹 Lending & CDPs – Liquidation mechanisms relying on trustworthy asset valuations
🔹 Synthetic Assets & Stablecoins – Accurate collateral tracking and price pegging
🔹 AI-Native Agents – On-chain bots and wallets that depend on real-world prices for decision-making
By providing robust oracle infrastructure, Band enables these applications to launch securely, scale confidently, and compete globally from day one.
