MegaETH, the ambitious Ethereum scaling project positioning itself as the “first real-time blockchain,” has officially gone live with its public mainnet. The network promises sub-10-millisecond block times and over 100,000 transactions per second, performance levels that would make on-chain interactions feel closer to centralized web apps than today’s typical blockchain experiences.
The launch centers on SALT (Small Authentication Large Trie), a breakthrough state architecture that stores the entire authentication structure in RAM, eliminating the disk I/O bottlenecks that have limited every blockchain since Bitcoin. By keeping critical data in memory while still settling on Ethereum for security, MegaETH achieves extreme speed without sacrificing finality on the base layer.
Accompanying the mainnet launch is Rabbithole (rabbithole.MegaETH.com), the official frontend that serves as the primary gateway for users. Through Rabbithole, participants can:
Early activity has already pushed Total Value Locked (TVL) past $40 million.
