Big thanks to @CumberlandSays and @digitalasset co-founder @wesarn_real for joining last week’s fireside. Our @camblockchains crew had a great time - lots of strong questions, practical takeaways, and the kind of post-talk chats that make these nights special. Grateful to @cantor8 and @CantonNetwork for bringing university partners together. Hope we can do this again soon!

September was the month the tokenization supercycle took real form, and Mantle rode it hard. We upgraded the rails, brought more institutions onchain, and widened global user access. Back-to-back all-time highs in tokenized assets, alongside continued growth across institutional stablecoins and DeFi yield, all moving Mantle toward a more open, borderless financial system. Here's everything we shipped: 1) Partnered with @Bybit_Ins and @FTDA_US to bring Franklin Templeton strategies onchain, expanding access for wallet-based investors. 2) Tokenized assets on Mantle climbed to 1,473, a new all-time high. 3) Distributed asset value on Mantle surpassed $476M, our second all-time high this month. 4) DeFi TVL on Mantle grew 44% to $98.82M in 30 days, led by @aave and @Fluxion_network per @DefiLlama. 5) $USDG by @Paxos went live on Mantle, joining @global_dollar as a Network Partner. 6) $SHEINx, @xStocksFi's tokenized equity of SHEIN, went live on @Fluxion_network days after its IPO. 7) Revealed the RWA Day speaker lineup with @byreal_io at @token2049 Singapore, featuring @grovedotfinance, @chainlink, @DMZ_Finance, and @TokenRelations. 8) Joining @CalBlockchain's B@B Hacks 2.0 on Oct 11 to guide top hackers building on Mantle, alongside @withAUSD, @Ripple, @Gemini, and @Lighter_xyz. 9) Mantle joins @kbwofficial, with @Gem3a and the KR Mantle Squad anchoring Mantle's RWA playbook. 10) Elysium, Mantle's latest infra upgrade, went live on Mantle Sepolia, Glamsterdam-ready ahead of @ethereum's next release. 11) @chainalysis's KYT now supports Mantle with real-time AML screening for issuers and institutions. 12) Our Reth-based Sequencer went live on Mantle Sepolia, unifying block production and ZK proving into one execution foundation. Mainnet next. 13) Mantle Squad closed out @DigitalChamber's TDC Convergence Forum NYC alongside @BlackRock, @Fidelity, @FireblocksHQ, @FalconXGlobal, and more. 14) @blockmachine_io's Mantle RPC went live with predictable costs, request-based pricing, and low-latency reads for real-time markets. Other Ecosystem Updates: 15) @Bybit_Official launched its new financial platform, extending exchange trading into wealth management and yield products. 16) @chainlink's CCIP 2.0 went live, upgrading cross-chain infrastructure for institutional flows. 17) @Securitize brought @ARKInvest's ARK Venture Fund (ARKVX) onchain via @ethereum. 18) $USDG is now available on @StargateFinance, powered by @LayerZero_Core. 19) @xStocksFi crossed 400K unique holders, and launched xStocks Vaults on @KrakenFX and @KrakenPro. 20) @Paxos launched $PAXGy, a PAXG-backed token that grows in gold terms. 21) @redstone_defi earned ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, clearing the security bar for institutional and regulated deployments. Q3 gave us a glimpse of what a more open financial system can look like. Now, it’s time to take it further toward a world where global capital markets are within everyone’s reach, without borders. Q4’s gonna be Mantle, let’s win and make it count.
