Monad FAQ

1. What fee tiers are available on PancakeSwap liquidity pools?

Supported Fee Tiers:

• The following fee tiers are available for V3 (concentrated liquidity) pools: 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.25%, 1%

• For V2 pools only 0.25% fee tier pools are supported

2. Can anyone create a pool?

Yes. Pool creation is permissionless, with a few exceptions:

• Only one pool can exist for a given token pair + fee tier combination (e.g. only one WMON <> USDC 0.05% pool can exist at one time)

3. How long does it take for a newly created pool to appear?

• Pools typically appear in the pool list approximately 5 minutes after creation.

• If it doesn't appear:

  • Use the search bar to locate it manually.

  • Pools may be filtered from the list due to low TVL.

4. Why does my pool’s APR or TVL still show as zero?

This is expected right after a new pool is created:

• APR and TVL data will only populate once at least one swap has occurred in the pool.

• After a swap, these metrics will begin displaying within approximately 15 minutes.

5. Why do my transactions sometimes fail if my wallet has less than 10 MON?

Monad has a rule that every account should keep a minimum safety buffer of 10 MON. If your balance is low and you send too many transactions too quickly, the network may stop accepting new ones.

6. Why do the first 1–2 transactions work, but the next ones fail?

Monad processes blocks using a slightly “behind” view of your balance. So:

• Your first transaction is usually fine.

• Your second might also go through.

• But if you send multiple transactions within a short time, the network thinks you might not have enough MON to pay all the gas fees.

So it blocks the next transaction. This is normal and part of the safety system.

7. Why does it feel stricter on smart accounts (contract wallets)?

Smart accounts follow stricter rules:

• They must always keep at least 10 MON while running contract code.

• If your smart account is below 10 MON, the transaction can revert immediately, even if EOAs still work for a couple of tx.

This is why smart-account users see failures sooner.

8. Does this mean I can’t use Monad with less than 10 MON?

You can still use it, especially with a normal EOA — but:

• Don’t send several transactions back-to-back.

• Wait a few blocks between transactions.

• Keep a little MON in your wallet to avoid issues.

9. How do I avoid these failures?

Simple tips:

• Keep 10 MON or more in your wallet if possible.

• If you’re low on MON, space out your transactions (don’t spam them).

• Smart-account users should keep a bit more than 10 MON, since contract calls use extra gas.
