MegaETH Is Now Live on Dune

We’re excited to welcome MegaETH to Dune

MegaETH, the performance-first EVM blockchain delivering millisecond-level responsiveness, is now integrated on Dune from Day 1.

Developers, analysts, and researchers can now explore MegaETH’s core network activity, app ecosystem, and real-time execution behavior directly on Dune.


What is MegaETH?

MegaETH is an EVM-compatible blockchain engineered for real-time performance, aiming to bring Web2-grade speed to fully onchain apps.

Key ideas:

  • Real-time execution: millisecond-level state updates under load.
  • High throughput: designed to push performance to hardware limits.
  • Node specialization: sequencers, provers, replicas, and full nodes each play distinct roles, enabling both speed and trustless verification.
  • Ethereum compatibility: same EVM bytecode, same tooling, same developer workflow.
  • A place for novel apps: the real-time responsiveness and high capacity allow for new blockchain-based experiences to exist

MegaETH’s architecture rethinks execution, state access, and synchronization end-to-end, enabling apps like fully onchain games, real-time trading systems, and consumer apps.


MegaETH data on Dune

With MegaETH integrated, Dune now provides visibility into how a real-time EVM chain behaves in production, starting with privileged access to the builder-only Frontier phase and extending through open mainnet. You can explore:

Network activity

  • Transactions, active users, contract deployments
  • Block frequency and observed latency

Performance characteristics

  • Gas per second, throughput under load
  • Execution patterns unique to real-time chains

Ecosystem growth

  • App adoption, volume trends, fee flows
  • Usage across key protocols and categories

Research-ready observability

  • Compare execution vs other EVM chains
  • Track real-time performance in the open, block by block


"We are all huge fans of Dune, and we are very excited for the opportunity to partner with them. It is the obvious choice when picking a data partner to showcase our real-time performance."

Lei Yang, Co-Founder and CTO of MegaETH
