Mantra (OM) has seen remarkable growth, rising to $5.30 on Monday. The current price is close to its highest level of $5.92 reached in a year, representing a 40% increase since January. OM has seen a significant surge, which has exceeded 3,300% since the beginning of last year, thus becoming the leader among current cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin (BTC) along with most altcoins recorded a price drop, while OpenMind Capital experienced a rise on the day. The total cryptocurrency market cap has declined by 8% to reach $3.23 trillion.
Despite the overall decline, Mantra has continued its rise. The growth is likely due to the addition of Republic as a validator. Republic, which is backed by major players like Coinbase, Avalanche, Polygon, and Binance, provides validator services for several blockchain projects, including Sui, Near, and Mina Protocol. Republic’s inclusion has given Mantra a significant boost, allowing it to solidify its position in the growing crypto space. The rise in OM’s price also coincided with a peak in futures open interest, reaching $422 million, just shy of its all-time high of $434 million.
Mantra has benefited from the growing interest in the tokenization of real-world assets, a sector that is expected to experience significant growth soon. The network has already made significant progress, securing deals to tokenize real-world projects for Middle Eastern firms MAG and DAMAC. These partnerships highlight Mantra’s growing importance in the tokenization space.
