Mantle Defies Market Drop With 31% Weekly Surge Amid RWA Adoption

Mantle (MNT) is experiencing a significant price increase, rising 4% daily and 31% weekly, reaching around $2.44 after hitting an all-time high of $2.47 on October 7.

  • The rise is driven by the launch of a compliance-focused Real-World Assets (RWA) “Tokenization-as-a-Service” suite at Token2049.
  • World Liberty Financial's USD1 stablecoin, with a $2.6 billion market cap, will be introduced on Mantle, enhancing its DeFi and payment capabilities.
  • A partnership with Bybit, which processes over $30 billion daily, increases Mantle's exposure to global traders.

Market Performance Indicators

  • Spot activity surged, with daily volume increasing from $125 million in early September to over $612 million, and market cap nearly doubling to $7.3 billion.
  • Open interest in derivatives rose 26% to $4.85 billion, with positive funding for nearly two weeks.
  • Mantle's technical indicators show bullish trends, invalidating bearish patterns and forming a "golden cross" on moving averages.

Challenges and Technical Levels

  • "Smart money" holdings decreased by 49% over 30 days, indicating selective profit-taking.
  • Support is identified between $2.00–$2.10, with a critical resistance level at $2.60.
  • A strong close above $2.60 could lead to a potential rise towards $2.85–$3.00.

Failure to surpass $2.60 might result in a fallback to the $2.20s range. Mantle's RWA initiative and integration aim to sustain its position despite broader market uncertainties.
