Megaeth breaks speed records on EVM Testnets
Megaeth gets the headlines with a Solid lead in computational transit. According to data collected by Messari, Megaeth reached 1700 mgas/s On his test network from March 31, 2025 – Over 5x faster than Monad And 17x faster than OPBNB.
For context:
- Megaeth: 1700 mgas/s
- Monad: 300 mgas/s
- OPBNB: 100 mgas/s
- Ethereum L1: 1.25 mgas/s
Mgas/s refers to the Number of computational gas units per second processedIn essence, measuring the rough processing power of these chains. The performance of Megaeth put it in a completely different competition.

Supported by A16Z: $ 140 million picked up
Add to the hype is the $ 140 million financing round led by Andreessen Horowitz (A16Z). The capital injection not only indicates institutional confidence, but also a strong belief in Megaeth’s ability Solve the scalability of vibration while retaining EVM compatibility.
With this financing, Megaeth is planning to:
- Expand development and security infrastructure
- Start on Mainstje with aggressive transit targets
- Defi- and gaming – Dapps that require enormous calculation efficiency
Why it matters: scales, Depin and beyond
The Megaeth breakthrough could not have come at a better time. Of Design (Decentralized physical infrastructure)” decentralized storageAnd AI/GPU-Deskloads on the chain Getting traction, there is an urgent need for block chains that can handle Heavy, high -frequency calculations.
Megaeth forms that basic layer for the following generation such as:
- Real-time AI Investment on-Chain
- Solid multiplayer crypto gaming
- Sensor-heavy Depin applications
- High-volume Defi protocols
Can Megaeth lead the next EVM cycle?
While it is still there test networkMegaeth’s early statistics speak volumes. If it maintains similar performance on MAINNET and maintains EVM compatibility, it can be the go-to chain for developers who remain slower L1s.
Given the support of A16Z and the increasing interest in Hyper-Performing Smart Contract PlatformsMegaeth would very well Next EVM golfEspecially since Ethereum L1 is struggling with scale restrictions.
