Coinbase has launched its first-ever public token sale, offering 7.5% of the total supply of Monad’s MON token through the platform. The sale marks a significant milestone for both Coinbase and the Ethereum-compatible blockchain project. The initiative comes as Monad prepares for its November 24 mainnet launch, attracting interest while generating discussion around the project’s economic model. 7.5% of the total supply will be offered at $0.025 through a sale lasting five and a half days. This token sale is available in over 80 jurisdictions worldwide, including the United States, and offers buyers an opportunity to acquire MON tokens using USDC. While demand remains strong, concerns persist surrounding Monad’s tokenomics model, particularly its supply expansion and impact on decentralization as well as how this will affect early access for wider participants. Monad aims to achieve high-performance speeds with its Layer 1 blockchain through EVM compatibility and decentralized governance. The team focuses on expanding their ecosystem prior to launch, building a strong foundation before going live on November 24. The token sale serves as the final major step in this journey, alongside providing an opportunity for U.S. retail investors to gain early access to crypto assets. Monad’s success depends on balancing its ambition with responsible distribution strategies and addressing concerns raised by community members regarding the project’s future.
