Manta CeDeFi Crossed $100M In TVL After One Week
The post Manta CeDeFi Crossed $100M In TVL After One Week appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Depositors are racing to qualify for the Manta CeDeFi points program before the project tags $500 million in TVL. Manta’s new CeDeFi product is off to a bullish start, with the project attracting more than $120 million in assets within its first week.

Custody services are provided by Ceffu, formerly Binance Custody. Binance Custody launched in December 2021 and rebranded to Ceffu in February 2023. Assets deposited to Manta CeDeFi are held by Ceffu, with users receiving on-chain “liquid custody tokens” representing their holdings on Manta Pacific that can be used for on-chain DeFi. Funds are also “mirrored” to represent assets on the Binance centralized exchange via Ceffu’s MirrorX service, facilitating the execution of CeFi strategies. “Ceffu generates revenue through Delta-neutral, low-risk trading strategies enabled by MirrorX,” Manta said. “This off-exchange settlement solution reflects assets on Binance,…
