MonadMonad is a blockchain platform that stands out for its high performance and Ethereum compatibility, designed to address the scalability and efficiency challenges faced by existing blockchain technologies. It achieves a remarkable throughput of 10,000 transactions per second (tps) by implementing optimizations in four critical areas: MonadBFT, Deferred Execution, Parallel Execution, and MonadDb. These innovations not only enhance the platform's performance but also ensure it remains fully compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) bytecode and...Web3Series B
Nervos NetworkNervos Network is a public blockchain ecosystem that aims to provide a foundation for building highly scalable and secure blockchain applications. It uses a layered architecture where the base layer, Common Knowledge Base (CKB), is a proof-of-work blockchain designed to store all types of crypto-assets securely. CKB supports smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps), while layer 2 solutions enhance scalability. Nervos Network focuses on solving issues like blockchain interoperability, scalability, and the storage of digital assets with its unique "store of value" economic model.Web3GrowthChina
Nexis NetworkNexis Network is the worlds first layer-1 blockchain built for real-time data access for A.I. and Machine Learning + cross-chain liquidity and interoperability of smart contracts disrupting the $113 trillion A.I., Equitys, and DeFi markets. Nexis Network offers an innovative solution addressing critical issues in the blockchain and Web3 space that limit utilization by Artificial Intelligence and financial markets. They do this by enhancing cross-chain interoperability, instant transaction settlement, enhanced data security, and scalable low-cost transactions. At the core of Nexis???s ecosystem lies the Nexis layer 1 blockchain platform, which is built upon the core of Solana with a fully integrated Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) merging the the speed and scalability of Solana with the security and developer tooling of Ethereum seamlessly all into one blockchain with current development set on integrating Zero-knowledge proofs into their hybrid consensus model.Web3Pre-seedUnited States

NockchainNockchain is a next-generation Layer-1 blockchain that merges classical Proof-of-Work (PoW) security with modern zero-knowledge proof (ZK) technology to create a fully verifiable, programmable, and decentralized computation network. Launched on May 21, 2025, Nockchain aims to extend the foundational principles of Bitcoin into the era of verifiable computation and scalable smart contracts. At its core, Nockchain introduces a consensus model called Zero-Knowledge Proof-of-Work (ZKPoW).Web3Series A

About this sector

Infrastructure is a broad category in Orbitrum. Its sub-sectors include Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks, rollups, smart contract platforms, distributed computing, storage and connectivity. The application also includes adjacent protocol and platform categories in this sector. Use the sub-sector labels to narrow the collection rather than treating every infrastructure project as the same kind of business.

How to compare projects

A network, a computing provider and an equipment supplier answer different needs. Start with the function described in the project profile. Then read the available analysis in that context, paying attention to the author, publication date and evidence discussed.

Projects follow the categories assigned in the Orbitrum application. This collection supports research and discovery; it is not an investment ranking.
