Partner

DUBAI, UAE, Dec. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, and Mantle, the high-performance distribution and liquidity layer for real-world assets, today announced a strategic partnership led by TokenLogic with Aave to advance decentralized finance (DeFi) accessibility and unlock new onchain liquidity channels for users worldwide.
Under this collaboration, Aave will launch on Mantle Network, bringing the industry’s most trusted decentralized lending protocols to a scalable, low-cost, EVM-compatible Layer-2 built for institutional-grade applications and real-world assets. This integration will enable users to supply, borrow, and access tokenized assets powered by Mantle’s fast-growing DeFi, RWA, stablecoin, and restaking ecosystems.
The partnership deepens the alignment between Mantle and Bybit, uniting protocol-level innovation with global exchange distribution. With Bybit acting as the Global Liquidity Bridge, the collaboration will strengthen liquidity pathways between centralized and decentralized venues with future plans to explore a variety of product offerings on the exchange including but not limited to asset listing, on-chain earn products, etc., subject to regulatory approval and market readiness.
Unlocking a New Era of Onchain Capital Efficiency
Aave’s deployment on Mantle establishes a powerful foundation for scalable and composable DeFi strategies, unlocking new liquidity routes that benefit both individual and institutional participants.
Mantle’s Layer-2 infrastructure enhances the efficiency of Aave’s lending pools by reducing transaction costs and latency while supporting high-throughput market activity.
Bybit’s global exchange infrastructure complements this expansion by offering direct connectivity between centralized liquidity, collateral management, and onchain DeFi markets, providing an integrated pathway for over 70 million users worldwide.
As part of the partnership, MNT-based yield incentive programs will be introduced within Aave pools. These incentives aim to reward early participation, strengthen asset utilization, and catalyze healthy liquidity formation within the Mantle ecosystem.
<blockquote>
 “This partnership represents a major step toward making decentralized finance truly scalable and globally accessible,” said Emily Bao, Key Advisor at Mantle.. “By combining Aave’s proven liquidity engine with Mantle’s high-performance Layer-2 and Bybit’s worldwide market reach, we are building a unified financial experience that bridges CEX liquidity with the next generation of on-chain markets.”
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
 “Bringing Aave to Mantle reinforces our mission to make high-performance DeFi infrastructure accessible to all,” said Emily. “Together with Bybit, we are creating a more connected liquidity environment – one where users and institutions can engage with decentralized markets confidently, efficiently, and at global scale. This collaboration sets the stage for deeper integrations and future market opportunities.”
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
 “This deployment on Mantle, together with Bybit’s global distribution, connects institutional-grade infrastructure with Aave’s deep, 24/7 liquidity,” said Stani Kulechov, Founder of Aave Labs. “By bringing Aave’s lending markets to Mantle’s high-performance network with direct access to Bybit’s exchange, this integration makes transparent, onchain finance available at global scale for institutions worldwide.”
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
 “Deploying&nbsp;Aave on Mantle represents an important milestone in expanding our protocol across high-throughput networks to make DeFi win,” said Matthew Graham, Founder and CEO at TokenLogic. “We’re excited to see a lot more users benefit from the efficiencies and new liquidity sources unlocked through this integration with Mantle and Bybit.”
