Mantle is a high-performance Ethereum Layer 2 with a massive treasury (one of the largest in crypto). It uses a modular architecture, separating data availability from execution to lower costs.
**Future Outlook:** Backed by a huge ecosystem fund, Mantle is aggressively incentivizing DeFi and gaming growth. Its 'mETH' (liquid staking product) is rapidly gaining market share, creating a sticky ecosystem for yield seekers.
