Mantra, the layer 1 blockchain, a layer 1 blockchain for Real World Assets (RWAS), today announced that its latest mainnet upgrade is live. With this release, Mantra will become the first blockchain to natively support both EVM and Cosmwasm smart contracts, thus becoming the first True MultiVM layer 1 built specifically for Real World Asset (RWAS). Coupled with Mantra Finance’s Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license from Dubai Virtual Asset Regulator (VARA), the upgrade further strengthens the Mantra’s position to complementarily capitalize the expanding tokenization market.
This milestone reflects not only the technical achievements in the mantra roadmap, but also the strategic evolution. MultiVM design allows developers and institutions to build using familiar tools while gaining the security and scalability of the mantra chain. The upgrade also prepares networks for future extensions, including permitted liquidity pools, institutional compliance frameworks, and deeper interoperability with other blockchains. These changes will help developers, investors and asset owners take their traditional assets on-chain, making it easier for global investors to access them in a safe and transparent way.
As the opportunities for $16 trillion tokenization accelerate, institutional adoption is converging on EVM infrastructure. Mantra fully embraced EVM compatibility and responded by meeting where the developers and institutions were.
“The mantra chain is at the heart of the mantra ecosystem,” said John Patrick Marin, founder and CEO of Mantra. “This EVM upgrade will not only improve performance, but also open the door to a new era of accessibility, trust and regulatory clarity when embedding compliance into protocols and representing real-world assets. This is another important step to making the future of finance more open and efficient.”
“This evolution of the mantra chain is the two key factors that distinguish mantras from competition, when Dubai’s Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license offers a combination with Dubai’s Virtual Asset Regulator (VARA) and Ebmu Interpants if they are looking for a compliance-driven infrastructure, and a compliant chain.”
Unlike most blockchains that add compliance via smart contracts, Mantra enforces regulatory requirements at the protocol level. As a result, agencies no longer have to choose regulatory clarity and EVM accessibility. You can have both. For developers, couple the complete set of EVM opcode and plexa compilation with low cost and infrastructure optimized for RWA applications.
The immediate benefits are:
- Developers can now deploy robustness-based DAPP directly into the mantra chain without modification. You can also fork and customize RWA’s Defi protocol. It will allow you to seamlessly bridge funds from other EVM chains.
- The agency has access to chains that are both EVM compatibility and self-robbery, coupled with Mantra Finance’s VASP license from VARA in Dubai, covering exchanges, broker-dealers and investment services.
Mainnet upgrades are based on the period of rapid momentum of the mantra. In recent weeks, Mantra announced a strategic partnership with Inveniam, creating a global agency RWA ecosystem fixed in the UAE and the US, and announcing the $OM token buyback to enhance long-term ecosystem growth.
Mantras have significantly improved governance and decentralization, and onboard both Binance, Nansen and Invenium as validators while involving internal things. On October 21st and 22nd, the Mantra will host agents, the “capital of the capital,” a two-day summit in Abu Dhabi.
With these key foundations currently in place, the mantra enters the next chapter, focusing on recruiting scaling, onboarding new asset issuers, demonstrating how tokenized finance works in a secure, transparent, and compliant way.
