@massouss said on Oct 1 that monad:native was 'up 20%' and framed the day as 'Uptober'.

Monad momentum: traders claim MON is 'up 20%' and 'slept on' as Aave proposes deploying V4 on the chain
Attention
Who was talking, day by day
What happened
Monad chatter ran Sept 28–Oct 4, first posted by @fomoebdao at 10:13 UTC on Sept 28 and peaking Oct 1 with 14 tracked accounts posting (23 tracked accounts and 9 other accounts across the week). The trading side drove it: @massouss said monad:native was 'up 20%' in an 'Uptober' post, @richardnhsu called Monad 'worth a look and being slept on', and @massouss followed up on Oct 2 arguing the Monad memecoin $MONIGGA — 'day-one Monad', 'almost a year of memes + lore', which 'survived the dev leaving' and 'the dead months' — was mispriced while liquidity rotated back into Monad. The one hard build event was Aave announcing a proposal to deploy Aave V4 on @monad with three risk-tiered markets and USDC and USDT0 as borrowable assets. @darklord_gr noted Aave V3 already holds about $306M on Monad and asked whether V4 pulls that liquidity over or V3 keeps it.
Why it matters
Monad is being discussed on two levels at once — a trading narrative (claimed +20% on MON, $MONIGGA lore, 'slept on' calls) and DeFi infrastructure (Aave's V4 proposal, sitting next to Aave V3's roughly $306M already on the chain) — which gives hooks for both the perps/trading and ETH-DeFi audiences in this story's tracked communities. The burst faded after Oct 1: distinct tracked accounts dropped to 3–4 per day on Oct 3 and Oct 4, so this is an explainer/post-mortem frame rather than a live spike. Only the Aave proposal is concrete and sourced to an official project account; the MON numbers are claims by individual accounts, and this story's market block is empty ('none'), so nothing here can be priced or predicted.
Observed reaction
Split between bullish-to-promotional and mockery. Bullish side: @massouss ('up 20%' on monad:native, then a long $MONIGGA 'lore' pitch), @richardnhsu ('Monad is also worth a look and being slept on'), @wisecharts (@monad 'continues on its path' and 'keeps building'). Mocking side: @iwantlambo joking 'monad? the private, quantum proof money?' while tagging @DonAlt, and @pooorad's crude candle joke. No visible post is bearish on Monad itself; the friction is over whether the move is real or narrated, and the chatter had cooled to 3–4 tracked accounts per day by Oct 3–4.

Explainability
Evidence register
@richardnhsu said Monad is 'also worth a look and being slept on' while arguing the Robinhood ecosystem is his top bet into the bull market.
[1]@wisecharts said @monad 'continues on its path' and 'keeps building', and posted $0.05 as a 'clear target for 2027' for monad:native.
[1]@massouss argued the Monad memecoin $MONIGGA is mispriced, describing it as 'day-one Monad' with 'almost a year of memes + lore', a purple durag as its symbol, having 'survived the dev leaving' and 'the dead months', and said liquidity is 'rotating back into Monad' with 'a real Monad season' possible.
[1]Aave announced a proposal to deploy Aave V4 on @monad, including three risk-tiered markets with USDC and USDT0 as borrowable assets.
[1]@darklord_gr noted that Aave V3 already holds about $306M on Monad, so the V4 proposal is an expansion rather than Aave's first step there, and asked whether V4 pulls that money over or V3 keeps it.
[1]@vasdie said 'the usual will come back after kbw and monad open', expecting activity to return in a couple of weeks.
[1]@iwantlambo mocked Monad as 'the private, quantum proof money' while tagging @DonAlt.
[1]@9xvenom promoted a SpiceNet 'Flow x Pare' campaign: three trades of $5+ on Pare through Spice Flow (trading from ETH, Arb, Base, Polygon, BSC, Monad, Citrea or Robinhood) for 5,000 Spice Points, ending Oct 5, with points counting toward a 5% community allocation for future $SPICE rewards, signed 'NFA. DYOR.'
[1]@_mlnbro reported that NEAR Intents stopped services after a bug in the Omni deposit and withdrawal interaction with the Intents smart contract, with preliminary losses of about $3.8M, and that deposits and withdrawals were paused for roughly 12 hours on 11 chains including Monad.
[1]@pooorad posted a crude joke chart post about Monad.
[1]@em3rald4u posted about Primus Labs' zkTLS/FHE privacy stack (used by Unitas for proof of reserves and by BNB Chain for confidential vaults) and about B2B versus B2C narratives; neither visible post names Monad.
[1][2]Angles
- Aave V4-on-Monad explainer: three risk-tiered markets, USDC and USDT0 borrowable, Aave V3 already holding ~$306M on Monad — quote @aave's proposal post and close on @darklord_gr's question of whether V4 moves that TVL or V3 keeps it.
- Number-check post on the two circulating figures: 'monad:native up 20%' (@massouss) and @wisecharts' $0.05-by-2027 target — no MON market data exists for this week ('market: none'), so present both strictly as unverified account claims with no price talk of our own.
- Meme-lore teardown: how $MONIGGA got branded 'day-one Monad', survived 'the dev leaving' and 'the dead months', and expanded via 'Durag Society' — frame as community history with a promotion flag, not a buy call.
Formats in use
- Quote-tweets of official announcements (@aave's V4-on-Monad proposal via @darklord_gr; @near_intents' incident notice via @_mlnbro)
- Chart/price screenshots and 'Gm' morning posts (@massouss, @wisecharts)
- Long-form memecoin 'lore' bullish post on $MONIGGA (@massouss)
- Step-by-step points-farm / quest guide (Spice Flow x Pare by @9xvenom)
- Short joke and crude meme chart posts (@iwantlambo, @pooorad)
Risks
- The story's market block is empty ('none'), so @massouss' '+20%' and @wisecharts' '$0.05 target for 2027' are unverified account claims — do not repeat as fact and do not publish price predictions or investment framing.
- @massouss' long $MONIGGA post reads as promotion of a small Monad memecoin (price framing, 'most memes at this size are still trying to become recognizable') — treat as potential shilling, never as an endorsement.
- @9xvenom's Spice Flow x Pare post is a referral-style quest ('Follow @9Xvenom', 5,000 Spice Points for 3 trades of $5+, '5% community allocation for future $SPICE rewards', 'NFA. DYOR.'); it is likely affiliate/paid promo and lists Monad as only one of nine chains — flag it if used.
- The NEAR Intents incident is a separate security event, not part of the Monad momentum story: preliminary loss of about $3.8M from an Omni deposit/withdrawal bug, with deposits and withdrawals paused about 12 hours on 11 chains including Monad — report the figure as preliminary and mark the incident as reported/unconfirmed in detail.
- Two posts in this set (@em3rald4u on Primus Labs and on B2B vs B2C narratives) never name Monad in their visible text — do not use them as Monad evidence or as proof of breadth.
- Crude wording in @pooorad's post and the jab at @DonAlt by @iwantlambo: don't repost crude language and don't pile on a named individual.

Robinhood eco is probably the highest r/r bet into the bull imo. My money is on robinhood:0x39dbed3a2bd333467115de45665cc57f813c4571, robinhood:0xe8ffd7e24187f72afb08d75b1bb13088a989a791, and up-2:native. Monad is also worth a look and being slept on.Open on X →

Primus Labs as a privacy layer that plugs into existing chains does not run its own blockchain. Its stack has two parts: - zkTLS that proves web or API data is real without revealing it. - FHE that lets apps compute on encrypted data. Meanwhile it is already in use by differeOpen on X →
