Description

Project Description

Mantle-Nexus is a high-performance, modular liquidity layer designed to bridge real world asset (RWA) cash flows with the Mantle DeFi ecosystem. By tokenizing institutional grade assets into composable mRWA-USDT receipt tokens, we provide the foundational infrastructure for a new era of compliant, on-chain yield.


One-Pager Pitch

The Problem: The DeFi-RWA Friction
DeFi lending is currently stuck in a cycle of extreme over-collateralization and privacy trade-offs. Borrowers cannot easily leverage Real-World Assets (RWA) because on-chain protocols lack the nuance to value off-chain creditworthiness without exposing sensitive personal data. This creates a barrier for institutional capital and limits the utility of tokenized RWAs in decentralized markets.

The Solution: MC-RWA Vault
MC-RWA Vault is a multi-collateral lending engine on Mantle that bridges the gap between RealFi and DeFi. It enables users to deposit tokenized RWAs (ERC20/ERC721) and borrow stablecoins against them using ZK-powered dynamic LTVs.

Privacy-First Credit: Leveraging Zero-Knowledge proofs to update credit scores off-chain and attest to them on-chain without revealing underlying data.
Dynamic Leverage: Rewards reliable borrowers with higher LTV ratios based on their ZK-verified financial health.
Multi-Token Repayment: Seamlessly repay loans using any approved token, powered by protected on-chain oracles.

Business Model
Borrowing Fees: A transparent, protocol-level fee on all issued loans.
Liquidation Incentives: Capturing a portion of internal liquidation spreads to ensure protocol solvency.
Enterprise API: Providing white-label "Vault-as-a-Service" for institutional RWA originators looking to bring liquidity to their tokenized assets.

Roadmap
Q1 2026 (Current): Full MVP deployment on Mantle Sepolia with multi-token repayment and oracle-fallback systems.
Q2 2026: Migration from mocked attestations to real ZK-identity providers and a comprehensive smart contract security audit.
Q3 2026: Strategic partnership pilot with a tokenized bond or real-estate provider for real-asset integration.
Q4 2026: Mainnet launch and expansion of the "Mantle-Nexus" ecosystem for cross-chain RWA liquidity.

Compliance declaration

The MC-RWA Vault (MVP) project is a technical prototype currently deployed on the Mantle Sepolia Testnet for experimental and educational purposes. At this stage:

No regulated financial assets are involved in the live demonstration.
The protocol uses mocked ZK-attestations and test tokens (e.g., USDTMock) to simulate RWA workflows.
In a future production deployment, the architecture is designed to integrate with regulated RWA tokenization providers and mandatory KYC/AML identity layers to satisfy regional legal requirements.

Key Technical Features:

  • Modular Vault Architecture: Decoupled collateral management from receipt token logic for maximum system flexibility.

  • VaultIntegrator: A developer focused "Money Lego" that enables atomic, single-block execution of complex RWA leverage strategies.

  • Institutional Security: Engineered with block level rate limiters and global circuit breakers to protect against high-frequency exploits on Mantle’s fast execution layer.

  • Deep Composability: mRWA-USDT tokens are standard ERC-20s, designed to serve as primary collateral across Mantle-native DEXs and lending protocols.

Why Mantle?

Mantle-Nexus leverages Mantle’s modular rollup architecture to perform high frequency collateral rebalancing and yield distribution that would be cost prohibitive on Ethereum L1, delivering institutional-grade RWA infrastructure with 0.1s latency.

Progress During Hackathon

Progress During Hackathon Architected a modular RWA vault system on Mantle Sepolia using Foundry. Developed a custom Integrator contract to enable "Smart Leverage" (atomic deposit and borrow). Implemented mRWA-USDT receipt tokens to ensure deep DeFi composability. Engineered advanced security features, including a block level rate limiter and a protocol wide circuit breaker. Built a real time dashboard using Wagmi and RainbowKit for seamless Mantle integration.

Fundraising Status

Currently in Bootstrap/Pre-seed phase. We are focused on perfecting the Mantle-native RWA infrastructure and seeking ecosystem grants to integrate with local African invoice financing partners for real-world pilot testing.
