August 26th Bitfinex listing the mantle native token, MNT

Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands – August 26, 2025 – Bitfinex, a premier digital asset trading platform, today announced that it will list MNT, the native token of Mantle, the modular Ethereum Layer 2 network.

The mantle, launched in 2023, is managed by the token holder community through the mantle governance process. The network is designed with a modular architecture that separates the execution, consensus, and data availability layers. This is to improve performance while maintaining Ethereum security features. Governance decisions are made through an on-chain voting system, with proposals being enacted based on the majority support from participating token holders.

The MNT serves as a native gas token for transaction fees in the mantle and as a governance token for the Mantle DAO, allowing holders to propose and vote on changes to the protocol. According to Mantle, MNT tokens enhance staking and incentive mechanisms to support network growth and participation. As outlined in the Mantle Governance Framework, the total supply is 6.219 billion MNT, allocated for ecosystem development, governance and the Ministry of Finance purposes.

“The mantle’s modular approach to scaling Ethereum, combined with a community-driven governance model, is consistent with the vision of a decentralized economy. We are pleased to add MNT to the diverse digital assets that can utilize MNT for trade.” said Anoush Bhasin, Bitfinex’s listing director.

Bitfinex customers can create MNT deposits at about 2pm on 26/08/2025, subject to network conditions. The transaction is scheduled to begin UTC on August 28, 2025 at around 2pm. This is subject to meeting liquidity requirements. MNTs will be traded against US dollars (MNT/USD) and tether tokens (MNT/USDT).

August 28th What is the Mantle (MNT)?

Mantle is an Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solution that provides modular architectures using optimistic roll-up technology and modular architectures, while still maintaining the security capabilities of Ethereum. By separating execution, consensus, payments and data availability on different components supported by innovations such as Eigenda, the mantle reduces costs, increases throughput, makes it easier for developers to build, and makes it easier for users to interact with decentralized applications. Its native token, MNT, will place the mantle as a flexible and scalable platform with the potential to supply gas prices, governance and incentives across Defi, gaming, AI and NFT use cases, and with the potential to expand adoption of Web3.

The key challenges the mantle is trying to address are the high cost and limited scalability of current Ethereum transactions. Traditional blockchain infrastructure processes process execution, consensus, payments and data storage within a single network layer, creating bottlenecks and unpredictable user costs. Mantle’s modular approach aims to separate these features and reduce costs by more than 90% compared to typical Layer-1 systems, while maintaining transparency and security. Mantle offers an accessible and reliable platform for both developers and end users by optimizing data availability and batch transactions prior to payments over Ethereum.

The potential impact on Web3 is important. Cheaper and faster transaction throughput allows a wider range of applications to run at scale, from distributed exchange and lending platforms to gaming ecosystems and AI-driven tools. MNT itself has practical uses beyond governance. It will be piling, supplied to the Defi market or combined with other tokens in the liquidity pool to create incentives for participation and growth within the mantle economy. In this way, Mantle offers both a technical framework for scaling and an economic structure that rewards users to contribute to the ecosystem.

What makes the mantle so important is trying to balance scalability, security and ease of use. If successful, it will help reduce developer barriers, reduce user costs, and help Ethereum stay competitive as the basis for distributed applications. By directly affecting MNT holders’ network orientation and providing continuous integration with Ethereum upgrades, Mantle will align governance with long-term innovation. Its architecture and token design suggest that it may have a strong potential to shape the next stage of Web3 adoption, making it a remarkable project in the evolving landscape of blockchain scalability solutions.

What is an MNT token?

MNT tokens are central utility and governance assets of the mantle ecosystem, serving as both the gas currency of the trade and the means by which the community can guide the development of the project. At the technical level, MNT powers the mantle network by covering transaction fees within the Layer-2 rollup infrastructure, ensuring consistent native media for users and developers to interact with their applications. Beyond simple payments, tokens underpin the governance model of the protocol. Because holders can directly delegate or use tokens to vote for proposals that form upgrades, financial management and ecosystem priorities. This dual function makes MNTs active not only in network operations but also in decision-making within the community.

MNT also plays a major role in Mantle’s incentive system. Holders can participate in reward programs, liquidity pools, and staking opportunities to distribute additional tokens or partner assets. This has already led to widespread participation, with rewards worth millions of dollars being issued on different platforms. By locking or lending MNTs, participants secure a network and deepen their liquidity throughout the Mantle Defolio ecosystem. Second, these incentives help drive recruitment by making MNT an active and yield generation asset rather than a passive governance token.

Token flexibility spans several sectors of the mantle’s growing ecosystem. In decentralized finance, MNTs can be fed into lending markets, seeped into safes, or paired up in liquidity pools to earn trading fees. Within GameFi you can use it to purchase in-game assets, while NFT Marketplaces provides direct media for obtaining digital collectibles. Mantle’s AI and Application Partners integrate MNT as a means of access or payment to services, embedding it into real use cases beyond core financial capabilities. This broad integration is not limited to governance, but helps to ensure that tokens are relevant across multiple layers of Web3 activity.

MNTs coordinate economic incentives, governance, and technical utility and act as connective tissue in mantle networks. By powering transactions, securing networks through staking, and allowing users to speak up about governance, we ensure that the mantle can evolve to meet the needs of our community. Its design links user participation and network growth. The more MNTs are used in Defi, games, or infrastructure, the stronger the ecosystem. Thus, MNT is not just a transaction tool, but a mechanism to maintain and expand the role of the mantle as an Ethereum Layer 2 solution.

Bitcoin (BTC) bulls are trying to start a recovery but selling at higher levels continues to disarm each attack of the range highs. Veteran trader Peter Brandt said in a post on X that Bitcoin has broken down from a bear wedge pattern, giving it a target objective of $65,635.

The current macroeconomic environment and the fears of a prolonged trade war have created a 40% possibility of a recession in 2025, according to Coin Bureau founder Nic Puckrin. Puckrin said that a recession and the current macroeconomic uncertainty could put pressure on risky assets such as cryptocurrencies.

However, not everyone is bearish on Bitcoin in the near term. Analyst Stockmoney Lizards said in a post on X that Bitcoin’s local bottom could be between $82,000 and $80,000. The analyst anticipates Bitcoin to make a reversal next week.

If Bitcoin starts a recovery, select altcoins are likely to move higher. Let’s look at the charts of the top cryptocurrencies that are showing a bullish setup.

Bitcoin price analysis

Bitcoin’s failure to rise above the resistance line may have tempted selling by traders. The bears will try to pull the price toward the critical $80,000 support.

The 20-day exponential moving average ($85,253) is flattish, and the relative strength index (RSI) is just below the midpoint, giving a slight advantage to the bears. If the $80,000 support cracks, the BTC/USDT pair could plunge to $76,606.

On the other hand, if the price turns up from the current level or $80,000, it improves the prospects of a rally above the resistance line. If that happens, it suggests an end of the corrective phase. The pair could rally to $95,000 and then to $100,000.

The 20-EMA has turned down on the 4-hour chart, and the RSI is in the negative territory, signaling that bears are in control. If the price turns down from the current level, the pair could slide to $80,000 and then to $78,000.

Buyers will have to drive and maintain the price above the 20-EMA to signal strength. The pair may then rise to the resistance line, which is a critical resistance to watch out for. The bullish momentum is expected to begin on a break above $89,000.

Toncoin price analysis

Toncoin (TON) bounced off the moving averages on March 30, indicating a positive sentiment.

The upsloping 20-day EMA ($3.58) and the RSI in the positive zone indicate advantage to buyers. The bulls will try to strengthen their position by pushing the price above $4.14. If they can pull it off, the TON/USDT pair may start a new upmove to $5 and, after that, to $5.65.

Sellers will have to yank the price below the $3.3 support to seize control. Such a move signals that bears remain sellers on rallies. The pair could plummet to $2.81 and eventually to $2.64.

The pair turned up from the uptrend line, indicating that the bulls are viewing the dips as a buying opportunity. The pair could reach the overhead resistance of $4.14, where the bears are expected to step in. However, if buyers pierce the resistance, the pair could start the next leg of the upmove toward $5.

The bears will be back in the driver’s seat if they sink and sustain the price below the uptrend line. The pair may then drop to $3.28.

Cronos price analysis

Cronos (CRO) broke out of the moving averages on March 24, signaling that the downtrend could have ended.

The CRO/USDT pair is facing selling near $0.12, but a positive sign in favor of the bulls is that they have not allowed the price to sustain below the $0.10 support. This suggests that buyers are trying to form a higher low. If the bulls shove the price above $0.12, the pair could rally toward $0.14.

Sellers are likely to have other plans. They will try to sink the price below the moving averages and trap the aggressive bulls.

The pair has been range-bound between $0.10 and $0.12, indicating indecision between the bulls and the bears. The 20-EMA is sloping up gradually, and the RSI is just above the midpoint, giving a slight edge to the bulls. A break and close above $0.11 increases the likelihood of a rally above $0.12.

Sellers will be back in the driver’s seat if they sink and maintain the price below the 50-SMA. That could pull the pair down to $0.08.

Mantle price analysis

Mantle (MNT) failed to rise above the 50-day SMA ($0.84) in the past few days, but a positive sign is that the bulls are trying to hold the price above the 20-day EMA ($0.80).

If the price rebounds off the 20-day EMA with strength, it will suggest a change in sentiment from selling on rallies to buying on dips. That improves the prospects of a break above the 50-day SMA. If that happens, the MNT/USDT pair could ascend to $0.94 and later to $1.06.

Contrary to this assumption, if the price continues lower and breaks below $0.77, it will tilt the short-term advantage in favor of the bears. The pair may then tumble to $0.72, delaying the start of the up move.

The 4-hour chart is facing stiff resistance at $0.85. The pair may dip to $0.77, which is a critical support to watch out for. If the price rebounds off $0.77, it will signal that the bulls are buying on dips. That could keep the pair stuck between $0.77 and $0.85 for some time. A break and close above $0.85 could push the pair toward $0.95.

Sellers will have to pull the price below $0.77 to gain the upper hand. The pair could then drop toward $0.69.

Render price analysis

Render (RNDR) has been in a strong downtrend for several weeks, but the bulls pushed the price above the 50-day SMA ($3.77) on March 25, signaling demand at lower levels.

The bears have pulled the price to the 20-day EMA ($3.57), which is an important level to watch out for. If the price rebounds off the 20-day EMA with force, the bulls will try to propel the RNDR/USDT pair to $5 and later to $6.20.

This positive view will be invalidated in the near term if the price continues lower and closes below $3.05. That signals aggressive selling at higher levels. The pair may slump to $2.83 and subsequently to $2.52.

The 20-EMA has turned down, and the RSI is in the negative territory on the 4-hour chart, indicating an advantage to sellers. A break and close below the uptrend line will further strengthen the bears, pulling the pair to $3.

The first sign of strength will be a break and close above the moving averages. That could open the doors for a rally to $4. The up move could accelerate after the pair closes above $4.20, completing a bullish head-and-shoulders pattern.
