What does Mantle's Enhanced Index Fund mean for the future of mETH Protocol? Designed to provide exposure to a systematically rebalanced basket of crypto assets, the Enhanced Index Fund will feature our incubated liquid staking token, $mETH, as a core yield-generating component. This gives institutional investors seamless access to crypto market beta exposure while optimizing risk-adjusted returns through DeFi-native strategies. By integrating $mETH, the fund sets a new standard for institutional-grade investment, enhancing utility, liquidity, and capital efficiency across the ecosystem.

Introducing our new upgrade: methprotocol.xyz. Incubated by Mantle, mETH Protocol began as a modest product in Dec. 2023, offering users diverse ways to enjoy enhanced yield opportunities on their ETH. By leveraging access to its treasury, engineering expertise, growth resources, and over 200 protocols on Mantle Network, mETH Protocol achieved tremendous growth in a short period — now ranked as the 4th largest in liquid staking and 6th in liquid restaking. As we move into 2025, mETH Protocol is set to target the next stage of hypergrowth. Our focus will be on broadening our brand presence, developing institutional grade products, scaling integrations across various on-chain ecosystems, and intensifying our community programs. Get ready to kickstart exciting developments with us.
