The Monad mainnet is set to launch on November 24, 2025, marking one of the most anticipated Layer-1 releases of the decade. Built for high throughput, low latency, and full EVM compatibility, Monad aims to introduce a high-performance blockchain capable of supporting global on-chain activity at scale.
SwapKit is preparing to support the Monad mainnet from day one by enabling cross-chain swaps into Monad through NEAR Intents (pending final QA). This allows wallets, DEXs, and platforms to onboard users into Monad instantly as the network goes live.
The Monad mainnet represents several years of engineering work from the Monad Foundation. The network is designed around three core principles:
November 24, 2025 — 9:00 a.m. ET (14:00 UTC)
This transition moves Monad from testnet to production mainnet with full validator activation and on-chain economy initialization.

If Monad delivers on its performance targets, it positions itself as a leading EVM-compatible chain entering 2026.
SwapKit is preparing to enable cross-chain swaps into the Monad mainnet on day one, giving builders instant access to the new ecosystem.
Users can swap directly into Monad assets without bridges or multi-step flows.
Native routing from:
SwapKit handles all routing, fees, and intent execution logic.
Wallets and dApps capture launch-week swap volume.
Assets, liquidity, and routes update without integrator maintenance.
Pending final QA, Monad mainnet support will activate automatically in SwapKit’s SDK v4 and unified API.
SwapKit develops technologies and operates services enabling non-custodial, permissionless cross-chain trading for wallets, dApps, and crypto platforms. Through its API and SDK, SwapKit enables seamless swaps across multiple chains – including Bitcoin — to let users trade native assets in a single transaction without handling the underlying complexity.
SwapKit integrators benefit from a unified API to get access to multiple providers, abstracting away integration complexities. Integrators can monetize their SwapKit integration using tailor-made tools to easily configure and collect swap fees. SwapKit supports address AML checks, transaction status tracking, and multi-chain wallet interaction. With fully open-source smart contracts and a continuously expanding chain/asset coverage, SwapKit empowers projects to embed composable cross-chain DeFi capabilities efficiently.
