7/ Execution: ZK Coprocessor - For data-rich and heavy computation, executing onchain can be too expensive, eg calculating a user's 30 days trading volume in Uniswap for loyalty program can cost $20k. Coprocessors like @brevis_zk can help scale these compute trustlessly off-chain

Monad is probably best known for its Parallel EVM. However the key to making Parallel EVM actually performant is MonadDb, the Parallel Access Database, which enables high-performance state access with minimal RAM requirements, because the bottleneck is state. Without it, Parallel
