About Mantle
Mantle (MNT) is the native asset of the Mantle Network, an Ethereum Layer 2 launched in 2023 by the Mantle ecosystem (originating from BitDAO). Mantle is designed as a modular Layer 2: it uses optimistic-rollup-style execution for cheap, high-throughput transactions on Ethereum while publishing data-availability information to a separate, cost-optimised layer. MNT serves as both the governance token of the Mantle DAO and the gas asset on the Mantle network.
Mantle inherits Ethereum's security through fraud proofs and L1 settlement, while keeping fees low by routing transaction data through its dedicated data-availability layer. The network is EVM-compatible, so Solidity contracts and standard Ethereum tooling (wallets, indexers, RPC libraries) work largely unmodified. Mantle's treasury, originally inherited from BitDAO, funds builders through grants and ecosystem programmes governed by MNT holders.
Mantle's ecosystem includes DEXs (Merchant Moe, Agni), lending markets, perps DEXs, and the mETH liquid-staking product, which has become one of the larger LSTs by TVL. The Mantle DAO funds builders through ecosystem and liquidity programs, and Mantle has expanded into related products such as MNT-denominated yield instruments and multi-chain expansions.
