This means that the blocks are still ordered linearly, but the chain identifies specific types of transactions within that order that can be executed in a parallelized manner.<\/p>\n<p>There is no confirmed date set for the launch of Monad\u2019s testnet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kuru Exchange, Kintsu and aPriori have raised a combined $16 million as parallelized EVM Monad gears up for its testnet launch.
