Seamless CeFi-to-DeFi yield integration
CIAN, known for structured on-chain yield products, converts sophisticated strategies into accessible vaults. By deploying natively on Mantle, CIAN enables efficient, composable stablecoin yield strategies backed by Mantle’s high-performance, low-cost infrastructure. Bybit serves as the global access layer, allowing millions of users to participate in Mantle’s on-chain economy through a familiar interface. The partnership enables a smooth flow of capital from centralized platforms to Mantle-native yield strategies, bridging CeFi and DeFi.
Expanding DeFi accessibility and liquidity
The collaboration broadens access to on-chain yield products, enabling users to pursue advanced stablecoin strategies without operational hurdles. By combining CIAN’s yield expertise, Mantle’s execution infrastructure, and Bybit’s distribution network, the Mantle Vault strengthens Mantle’s role as a key distribution layer for on-chain finance. This setup lays the groundwork for deeper liquidity, expanded DeFi utility, and future ecosystem integrations. The Bybit Mantle Vault, powered by CIAN, is now live and open for subscriptions.
Mantle manages over $4B in community-owned assets and positions itself as a premier bridge between traditional finance and on-chain liquidity. Bybit serves more than 80 million users worldwide, while CIAN manages $1.4B in TVL and offers advanced yield strategies across crypto-native and real-world assets. Additionally, Bybit’s collaboration with Mantle and Aave aims to bring institutional-grade DeFi liquidity to a global audience by integrating Aave’s decentralized lending protocols onto Mantle’s Layer-2 network, enhancing accessibility, efficiency, and composability for both retail and institutional participants.
