$MNT @Mantle_Official is experiencing an epic upgrade, which can be summarized as follows:

Personnel Changes: Several core members, including the current COO of Bybit, have joined Mantle.

Empowerment Enhancement: Empowerment at the level of quasi-platform tokens.

Let me break it down for you👇

1/ Personnel Changes

According to official news, the Bybit members joining the Mantle team include:

Helen Liu: Co-CEO of Bybit

Emily Bao: Head of Bybit's spot and Web3 business, founder of Byreal

In my understanding, Helen Liu is currently the second-in-command at Bybit, while Emily Bao is the founder of Bybit's recent major strategic product, Byreal.

The significance of this personnel arrangement is that Bybit is elevating Mantle as an extension of its core infrastructure.

2/ $MNT Empowerment

Disclosed empowerments include:

Application Value: Fee discounts, more trading pairs, loans, VIP benefits, etc.

Trading Scenarios: More MNT trading pairs and MNT options products will be launched; new structured products such as smart leverage, Double Win, and OTC trading will be introduced.

Platform Rights: Participation in activities like Launchpool, Megadrop, Launchpad, etc.

Although Bybit repeatedly emphasizes that $MNT is not Bybit's "platform token," the actual actions give a sense of "everything can be given to you except the title." It is not an exaggeration to call it a quasi-platform token.

3/ Mantle Positioning

The "liquidity chain" positioning of Mantle 2.0 essentially aims to become the core hub for traditional financial assets on-chain. The ambition of this positioning is not to simply create a generic L2 but to become the infrastructure standard for the RWA track.

Why choose RWA? Because it is the only track with a sufficiently large market size and real demand from traditional financial institutions. Stocks, bonds, real estate, commodities—these trillion-dollar traditional assets, once massively on-chain, require not only technical solutions but also comprehensive support in compliance, liquidity, and trading depth.

Therefore, Bybit's on-chain layout is already very clear:

Mantle: L2

Byreal: On-chain launchpad

Bybit Web3: A bridge connecting on-chain and Bybit exchange

This is a complete closed loop from asset issuance, infrastructure to trading circulation.

Although $MNT has risen significantly in the short term, I believe the market still does not realize Mantle's strategic stronghold position in Bybit's future ecosystem. Of course, whether Mantle can succeed in the long run will depend on whether its ecosystem can thrive.
