A Guide to Mantle Tokens: $MNT, $mETH, $mUSD & More

Mantle has introduced new assets in recent weeks — the pool of Mantle-related tokens has expanded from its native token $MNT to include $mETH and $mUSD, with more set for release in 2024. Here's a comprehensive guide on where you can find these assets within and outside of Mantle Ecosystem.

$MNT — Mantle's Native Token

Mantle token ($MNT) powers Mantle Network as its native gas token and ecosystem growth token, and serves as the governance token of Mantle Governance.

(1) Bridge to Mantle Network

Deposit $MNT to Mantle Network with multiple available assets such as ETH, USDT, USDC, WBTC, FLOKI, PEPE, SHIB and more.

  • Select the asset that you’d like to bridge with from the drop-down list: https://bridge.mantle.xyz
  • Please note that you will need both $ETH to transact on Ethereum L1 and $MNT to transact on Mantle Network
  • If you’re new to Mantle Network, remember to add “Mantle Network” to your wallet
  • 4 $MNT Bonus: Bonus is limited to ONE (1) per qualifying wallet address — the bonus amount and qualification factors may change in the future
  • More details: https://www.mantle.xyz/blog/announcements/bridging-on-mantle-mainnet

Alternatively, send $MNT or other available assets to Mantle Network directly from other chains via Axelar’s Squid Router.

(2) Buy, Sell and Trade on Centralized Exchanges

You can acquire $MNT at a number of known centralized exchanges — depending on the exchange, you may also find other product offerings that utilize $MNT, for example, staking to earn yield or trading perpetual contracts. You can also transact and trade with various base currencies.

(3) Swap on Decentralized Platforms

$mETH — Mantle LSP's Value-Accumulating Receipt Token

Mantle Staked Ether ($mETH) serves as the value-accumulating receipt token of Mantle’s liquid staking protocol — Mantle LSP. $mETH is currently being adopted and integrated across multiple Mantle L2 DeFi applications and core technology partners, as well as centralized exchanges.

You may also acquire $mETH directly via the Mainnet Bridge: https://bridge.mantle.xyz
