Mantle is a suite of Ethereum scaling solutions including an optimistic rollup and ZK rollup built using an iterative modular chain approach, and supported by Mantle’s native token $MNT.
It is designed to bolster support for hyper-scaled throughput decentralized applications (dApps) — from derivatives decentralized exchanges (DEXs), to gaming, to operations of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).
Layer 2 rollups are built to address the scaling limitations of Ethereum by taking transaction processing to a separate execution layer, but this inevitably exposes users to the high gas fees and limited throughput on Layer 1.
Mantle's modular architecture helps achieve greater network efficiency for resources at hand, while maintaining the same level of security for all network actors. Increased network performance also enables better fraud proof and ZK proof technology, essentially unlocking the true potential of L2 rollups.
Different parts of the Mantle tech stack are specialized to tackle specific issues.
- Data Availability: Data Availability powered by EigenDA technology, an innovative re-staking solution that leverages Ethereum's validator network to bring the security of L1 to L2
- EVM-level Fraud Proofs: Improved fraud proofs that are evaluated using EVM-level instructions
We encourage you to check out the Mantle tech docs to learn more about the inner workings of Mantle.

DApps need to connect to nodes for fetching block data and sending transactions to the Mantle network. Our JSON-RPC API supports HTTPS and WebSocket connections.

You can use npm or yarn package managers to download and install the @mantleio/sdk package. We'll use yarn in this example.
- Set up a project directory.
mkdir MantleSDK
cd MantleSDK
npm init --yes- Download and install the SDK package using this command.
yarn add -D @mantleio/sdk- Create a
<filename>.jsscript and get started by making a request, for instance, to fetch the current L1 gas price.
const ethers = require("ethers")
const mantle = require("@mantleio/sdk")
const l2RpcProvider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider("https://rpc.testnet.mantle.xyz")
async function main() {
console.log(await mantle.getL1GasPrice(l2RpcProvider))
}
main();- Run your script using the
node <filename>.jscommand to see the output.
Feel free to browse through our compilation of tutorials that use the Mantle SDK to demonstrate common functionality such as bridging assets between Mantle and Ethereum, and more.
The SDK docs provide complete reference of all the methods available as part of the Mantle SDK to facilitate interaction between applications and Mantle network.
There are multiple roles associated with Mantle nodes. Rollup Verifiers mainly sync rollup data from Mantle's trusted Sequencer (to be decentralized in the future!). dApp builders who run their own verifier nodes have the benefit of being able to simulate L2 transactions, among other advantages, and have ready access to them without rate-limiting (as opposed to public RPCs).
Here's a tutorial describing the process of deploying a verifier node.
