Mantle has shackled itself to Infinex, a cross-chain DeFi aggregator, in a bid to drag Mantle-based assets and dApps into the spotlight. This deployment drags Infinex’s passkey-first wallet, unified portfolio management, and integrated trading tools onto Mantle’s turf, handing users a simplified on-ramp to find liquidity, juggle portfolios, and execute cross-chain DeFi strategies without drowning in browser tabs.
For users, the primary shift is a streamlined interface that packs functions usually scattered across a dozen different apps into one tidy package. Infinex slurps up liquidity from various protocols and bundles swaps, bridging, and yield-farming opportunities into a single experience, slashing the friction that keeps both fresh-faced newcomers and jaded traders hopping between fragmented tools like caffeinated kangaroos.
The integration aims to make Mantle-native tokens and dApps easier to spot and use, smoothing cross-protocol activity for traders and liquidity providers. It brings a practical, unified trading experience to Mantle’s modular Layer-2 environment. Through Infinex, users can execute optimized token swaps with routing for best prices and low slippage, move assets across chains inside a single interface, and view and deploy yield strategies—from staking to lending and liquidity provision—without ever leaving the Infinex dashboard.
These features deliver immediate utility to Mantle users and partners by lowering the technical bar to participate in DeFi. Strategically, the partnership extends Mantle’s visibility beyond its native ecosystem and helps channel deeper, more efficient liquidity flows across networks. Mantle’s playbook is to act as a distribution and liquidity layer connecting TradFi and institutional flows with on-chain liquidity and real-world assets; easier access through cross-chain aggregators like Infinex complements that mission by driving on-chain activity, volume, and new user adoption.
Mantle’s broader narrative, positioning itself as a gateway for institutional and TradFi participants into DeFi, is reinforced by the scale and institutional ties the network highlights. The ecosystem claims more than $4 billion in community-owned assets and lists core projects and partners that include mETH, fBTC, MI4, Ethena USDe, Ondo USDY, OP-Succinct, and EigenLayer, underscoring the liquidity and infrastructure that newcomers will now reach via Infinex. That combination of credibility and tooling is central to Mantle’s pitch for large-scale adoption.
From Infinex’s side, the platform describes itself as a crypto superapp that blends multichain wallet functionality, DEX aggregation, perpetuals trading, and more, with support for more than 20 chains and passkey authentication for simpler, safer logins. Bringing that CEX-like UX to Mantle is part of Infinex’s broader effort to make on-chain activity feel familiar and friction-free for everyday users.
DeFi continues to chase usability and cross-chain composability, and integrations that fold entire ecosystems into single-pane interfaces will likely accelerate. For Mantle, Infinex offers a fast track to broader distribution and liquidity access; for Infinex, Mantle supplies an expanding catalogue of high-performance, institutionally-minded assets and protocols to surface to its users. Together, the two projects say they hope to make it easier for both crypto-native users and new entrants to find, trade, and earn across the on-chain landscape.
