What is Mantle?
Mantle is an Ethereum layer 2 scaling solution developed by BitDAO to improve Ethereum's scalability. It utilizes Optimistic Rollups and a novel data availability solution called EigenDA, which allows Mantle to process transactions much faster.
The Mantle mainnet launched in July 2023. It has quickly gained adoption, with total value locked exceeding $1 billion according to L2Beat. This makes Mantle the 5th largest Ethereum layer 2 protocol.
