MANTRA Announces $108M Fund to Advance Blockchain Innovation

10 Apr 2025


MANTRA Chain has officially launched the MANTRA Ecosystem Fund (MEF), a significant $108 million investment initiative aimed at accelerating the growth and adoption of blockchain projects within its ecosystem. This funding comes as part of MANTRA Chain's commitment to supporting innovative solutions that leverage blockchain technology, particularly in the realm of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs).

As a layer 1 blockchain specifically designed for the tokenization of RWAs, MANTRA Chain aims to facilitate the integration of blockchain into traditional financial applications. According to John Patrick Mullin, CEO and founder of MANTRA Chain, the MEF is strategically positioned to drive real-world adoption by funding initiatives focused on RWA tokenization.

Over the next four years, the MEF plans to deploy a total of $108,888,888 to support high-potential blockchain projects across the globe. This initiative will not only provide vital capital to emerging startups but will also collaborate with global investment firms to further enhance the blockchain sector's expansion.

A key focus of the MEF is to attract and support teams that are innovating within the realm of RWA tokenization. The fund invites projects at various stages of development, including those that operate across multiple blockchain networks. By encouraging collaboration between blockchain pioneers and investment firms, the MEF aims to promote the adoption of decentralized finance (DeFi) and facilitate the broader utilization of RWAs.



MANTRA Chain plans to identify promising investment opportunities through its extensive network of incubators, accelerators, and capital partners. This network includes notable organizations such as Laser Digital, Shorooq, Brevan Howard Digital, Valor Capital, Three Point Capital, Amber Group, Manifold, UoB Venture, DAMAC, Fuse, LVNA Capital, and Forte

By partnering with established investors and incubators, MANTRA Chain seeks to connect visionary founders with the necessary resources to thrive within the blockchain ecosystem. The MEF is designed to facilitate a greater number of projects moving on-chain, thus creating an environment conducive to the development of blockchain-powered financial solutions.

With the launch of the MANTRA Ecosystem Fund, MANTRA Chain reiterates its dedication to fostering innovation and driving the future of finance through blockchain technology.
