Mantle Monthly Roundup: Quick Summary • MI4 fund • Cookathon • $MNT Yap Club • Mantle Yapperboard • cmETH | COOK HyperEVM bridge All covered in this thread 🧵

1/ In the past month, we've seen tons of new ecosystem updates from the Mantle team. Most of which have led to increased chain fees and $MNT revenue.

2/ For example, the chain's fees (i.e., revenue) have spiked over 50% compared to the previous month. The majority of this growth is due to new integrations and collaborations introduced last month. Let’s dive into them ↓

3/ Mantle Index Four launched only a few weeks ago. It's an investment fund that provides diversified beta exposure to RWA backed assets. Mantle partnered with @Securitize to launch it, which is one of the biggest tokenization companies in the space. x.com/Mantle_Official/status/1...

4/ The index could basically become the “S&P 500” for crypto natives, and I’d say it’s Mantle’s biggest achievement in the past few years. It’s a big deal for user adoption. We’ll have to see how it plays out and how they’ll leverage it in the coming months.

5/ Cookathon Cookathon is basically Mantle's flagship hackathon for developers. It's designed to incentivize builders to start building cool stuff on Mantle. x.com/0xMantleDevs/status/1919...

6/ Mantle Yapperboard (2nd phase) The leaderboard is designed for 3 phases (months) for the top Mantle yappers. (150K MNT in total) There's 50k $MNT to be distributed among the Top 50 Mantle Yappers this month. x.com/Mantle_Official/status/1...

7/ Kaito leaderboards have proven to boost boost the social presence of the projects in the last few months. I’ve been seeing way more Mantle mentions lately too, so looks like the Kaito leaderboard is working just right :)

8/ $cmETH / $COOK bridge to HyperEVM went live recently. The team has seen the requests for HyperEVM integration, so they went for it quickly.

9/ Lots is going on with Mantle right now, but I tried to cover the key stuff from the past month. Hope this summary helped! And if I missed anything, just let me know :)
