Bybit has announced the launch of an exclusive benefit program for institutional clients holding Mantle (MNT), unlocking advanced trading and lending capabilities. With the official integration of MNT into Bybit Institutional, institutional clients can enjoy higher leverage, longer borrowing periods, and advanced trading features on the platform. As a key component of the Bybit x MNT roadmap, this integration will officially take effect on September 20, 2025, for eligible institutional users. Key benefits for Bybit institutional clients include: Enhanced Leverage Access: Institutional clients who stake MNT can enjoy higher leverage. Spot leverage can be increased up to 8x, and USDT perpetual contracts can be increased to 5x. Institutional lending offers up to 10x leverage on USDT and USDC, with the specific amount linked to the amount of MNT staked. Extended Fixed-Rate Borrowing Periods: Institutions that stake more MNT can enjoy longer fixed-term borrowing periods, improving financial stability and planning capabilities. The tiered structure includes: staking 500,000 MNT for a two-month term, staking 1 million MNT for a three-month term, and staking 1.5 million or more MNT for a four-month term. The program features a simple and efficient activation process: institutional clients can obtain MNT through Bybit spot trading, flash swaps, or the OTC trading desk. Once the staking is complete, they can notify their account manager and activate their benefits via the distribution of MNT tokens the next business day.
