MegaETH

Overview

MegaETH is an Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain designed for real-time performance, targeting 100,000 transactions per second with 10-millisecond block times. It uses a single high-performance sequencer that holds the entire blockchain state in memory, enabling transaction execution without storage I/O. MegaETH is fully EVM-compatible, allowing existing Ethereum dApps to deploy without code modifications. The network uses ETH as its native gas token.

Faucet

You can use a faucet to obtain free testnet MegaETH for development and testing.

Units

Each MegaETH unit is comprised of 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 (10¹⁸) wei, so not even a single ETH can be stored numerically without exceeding the range of JavaScript numbers. Gas fees are denoted in gwei.

1 ETH = 10¹⁸ wei
1 wei = 10^-18 ETH
1 gwei = 10^-9 ETH

For that reason, only string balance properties are available, which are balanceString, confirmedBalanceString, and spendableBalanceString.

Tokens

MegaETH natively supports tokens. BitGo-supported MegaETH tokens can be accessed on the Mainnet (e.g. BitGo coins and tokens).

Fees

MegaETH supports EIP-1559 gas estimation. The network uses ETH as its native gas token for transaction fees. Fees consist of a base fee that is burned and an optional priority tip paid to the sequencer. The base fee adjusts dynamically based on block utilization.

MegaETH uses forwarders, so it does not support manual consolidation.
