We are proud to announce support for MegaETH, an Ethereum Layer 2 network that delivers real-time blockchain performance. This launch represents a major leap forward for developers building latency-sensitive applications, from high-frequency DeFi to fully onchain gaming.

MegaETH is designed to push blockchain performance to hardware limits. With transaction throughput exceeding 100,000 TPS and block times as low as 10 milliseconds, MegaETH brings Web2-level responsiveness to the Ethereum ecosystem. For developers who need instant transaction finality without sacrificing security, this is a game-changer.

By integrating MegaETH into our platform, we're giving builders access to the infrastructure required to deploy the next generation of decentralized applications, ones that feel as fast and responsive as traditional web services.

MegaETH joins our extensive library of supported chains, reinforcing our commitment to providing developers with access to the most innovative blockchain networks.

Why Builders Choose Quicknode for MegaETH

• Ultra-Low Latency Access: Our infrastructure is optimized for MegaETH's real-time architecture, ensuring your applications maintain sub-second responsiveness even during peak network activity.

• Enterprise Reliability: With 99.99% uptime and globally distributed nodes, we provide the stability required for high-frequency trading platforms, gaming applications, and production DeFi protocols.

• Instant Sync to Tip: Deploy endpoints that stay current with MegaETH's rapid block production, critical for applications that depend on real-time state updates.

• Zero Rate Limits: Build without constraints. Our MegaETH endpoints are designed to handle the high request volumes that real-time applications demand.

Choosing Quicknode for your MegaETH deployment ensures your application is built on infrastructure engineered for speed and scale.

About MegaETH

MegaETH is a next-generation Ethereum Layer 2 network built for real-time performance. The network introduces a novel architecture that separates transaction ordering, execution, and validation across specialized node types. This approach eliminates the bottlenecks that limit traditional rollups.

The network uses a high-performance sequencer that processes transactions in memory, enabling near-instant execution. State updates are then propagated to replica nodes and published to EigenDA for data availability, while Ethereum mainnet provides settlement security.

主要特点：

• Real-Time Execution: Block times as low as 10 milliseconds enable applications that demand instant feedback, such as onchain trading and multiplayer gaming.

• 100,000+ TPS: MegaETH's parallel execution model delivers throughput that rivals centralized systems while maintaining full decentralization of block validation.

• Full EVM Compatibility: Deploy existing Solidity smart contracts using familiar Ethereum tooling like Hardhat, Foundry, and Remix without modification.

• EigenDA Integration: High-throughput data availability ensures the network can sustain massive transaction volumes without congestion.

• Ethereum Security: MegaETH inherits Ethereum's battle-tested security model, with fraud proofs and decentralized validation ensuring trustless operation.

MegaETH is purpose-built for applications that were previously impossible onchain: fully onchain order books, real-time physics engines for games, high-frequency trading bots, and consumer apps that feel instant.

What You Can Build on MegaETH

MegaETH's performance characteristics unlock new categories of decentralized applications:

High-Frequency DeFi: Build perpetual exchanges, central limit order books, and arbitrage systems where every millisecond matters. Real-time price feeds and instant order execution eliminate the latency that typically disadvantages onchain traders.

Onchain Gaming: Create multiplayer games with instant state updates for combat, trading, and leaderboards. MegaETH's tick rate supports the kind of real-time interactivity that blockchain gaming has always promised but rarely delivered.

Consumer Applications: Ship products that feel as responsive as Web2. Payment apps, social platforms, and content systems can now run entirely onchain without compromising user experience.

AI Agents: Deploy autonomous systems that execute thousands of micro-transactions with reliable, near-instant confirmation. MegaETH's deterministic execution makes it ideal for AI-driven DeFi strategies and onchain automation.
