Mantle Becomes Strategic Investor of Digital Asset Management Firm ReserveOne

Mantle is proud to announce its strategic investment in newly-formed digital asset management firm ReserveOne, an institutionally-governed digital asset reserve anchored in a diverse treasury strategy including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana. This partnership underscores Mantle's commitment to further bridge TradFi and crypto together beyond its current innovation pillars, pledging our support to ReserveOne's mission to expanding the digital asset ecosystem.

What is ReserveOne?

ReserveOne is a strategic crypto reserve that aims to provide institutional-grade access to a diversified digital asset portfolio inspired by the proposed U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Digital Asset Stockpile. Featuring a powerhouse of strategic partners such as Galaxy Digital, FalconX, Monarq Asset Management, and Kraken, and custody partner Coinbase, ReserveOne is primed to help investors capture alpha through digital assets while offering yield-generation through institutional staking and lending, and venture allocations.

Mantle: Driving the Next Chapter in TradFi x Web3

Mantle is continuously evolving as an on-chain financial ecosystem that delivers a seamless, transparent, and user-centric experience, bridging TradFi and web3 with our innovation pillars — a banking-focused blockchain Mantle Network, ETH staking and restaking protocol mETH Protocol, decentralized Bitcoin solution Function (FBTC), institutional-grade fund Mantle Index Four (MI4), borderless smart money app UR and AI research and incubation arm MantleX.

  • Onboarding the next $1T capital into digital assets with MI4: MI4 offers access to leading digital assets without the operational complexity of self-custody or active token selection, where investors can enjoy crypto beta with built-in yield. The largest tokenized non-money market fund with a $400M anchor investment by Mantle Treasury and tokenized by Securitize, MI4 shares potential synergies with ReserveOne that can be explored.
  • ReserveOne unlocks the ability to stake its core underlying assets (BTC, ETH, SOL) with Mantle's ecosystem of products: (1) Function (FBTC) sits at >$1B in Total Value Locked (TVL) and is enabling yield on Bitcoin; (2) mETH Protocol (mETH) sits at ~$1B TVL that is purpose-built for security catering to institutions; and (3) Bybit Staked SOL (bbSOL) stands to see greater exposure to the Asia market.

Mantle will have access to greater TradFi and public markets expertise with the support of ReserveOne; Mantle's stronghold in Asia will also pave the way to broadening ReserveOne's potential investor base.

This new development allows ReserveOne and Mantle to scale a shared vision of breaking down barriers between TradFi and crypto. Mantle Treasury, one of the world's largest on-chain treasures at ~$3B of AUM, is set to support ReserveOne's diversified play — an attestation to our belief in the vision and long term strategy of the team.

As the first crypto-native on-chain ecosystem actively building towards TradFi and driving a new category, "Blockchain for Banking", that sees blockchains applied practically to traditional financial systems for real world solutions, Mantle and its team of on-chain experts are ready to take the next step in shaping the future of on-chain finance.
