Local currencies move onchain, on Polygon rails. @MentoLabs is live with its FX protocol, starting with a USDm/EURm pool. → backed by @capa_fi as a day-one liquidity partner → with @Schuman_io's EURØP as a reserve asset for EURm

Big step for the euro on-chain. EURØP is now a reserve asset for @MentoLabs’ EURm pool on @0xPolygon, with launch liquidity from @capa_fi. Proud to earn this trust. The market for deep, regulated euro liquidity is only getting started. The future of finance is European.
Capa joins @MentoLabs as a launch liquidity partner on @0xPolygon, backing their USDm/EURm pool from day one and giving users and builders access to a more complete stablecoin market structure beyond dollar-only liquidity. 🗣️ We're also adding EURØP by @Schuman_io as a reserve asset for EURm, bringing regulated euro liquidity on-chain.

Did you know that 40% of TOTAL USDT supply on Solana and Ethereum is in @binance's wallets? Or which memecoin trading pair holds a measurable share of a major stablecoin's Solana supply? Find these and more "fun" distribution facts in our latest stablecoin report 👇 Shout out to @zuk1818, @werningfacundo, @GarrettHarper_, @thenouxnoux, @nicoleschaeferr, @denney808 and countless others for collab'ing with Range to create this report
1/ 3 exchanges hold 36% of $180B in USD stablecoins. Binance alone holds ~$46B! Our new report, Dollar Supremacy, maps the full distribution of USDT, USDC, USDe, PYUSD, and USDG across Ethereum and Solana. Here's what the data shows 🧵👇

Cannes was about high-signal builders. 🇫🇷 Huge thanks for the deep dives: 🔹 Stable Summit: Great sync with @denney808 on FX/Onchain design & the @SteakhouseFi team. 🔹 Vault Summit: Vital talks on curation & professionalism with @PaulFrambot, @LucaMossini (@enzymefinance), @lagoon_finance, @rise_pay, @CurrentSUI, @yield_network, and @FalconXGlobal. 🔹 The Agora: Connecting with institutions via @KaikoData.

FX Market Structure and Onchain Design FX markets behave very differently across currency pairs. Liquidity, volatility and execution dynamics all shape how trades actually clear. This panel will examine how these realities translate onchain, from slippage and liquidity gaps to the design requirements needed for FX infrastructure to support real payment and treasury flows. On stage: • Martin Krung (@martinkrung), @curvefinance • Dr. Ivy Schuhmacher, @DeutscheBank • Denney Kwok (@denney808), @MentoLabs Moderator: Tesa Ho (@defin00b), Flashbots

It’s live: Mento has arrived on @monad. We’re bringing institutional-grade FX infrastructure to a new ecosystem, starting with the first FX pair: GBPm/USDm. This is Mento’s first deployment beyond @Celo and the beginning of our multichain liquidity rollout. The GBPm/USDm pool uses Mento V3 Fixed-Price Market Maker (FPMM) design with oracle-referenced pricing, powered by @chainlink. Mento extends FX rails to Monad for payments, treasury flows, remittances, and multicurrency apps, with cross-chain connectivity via @wormhole. For LPs and traders, this means pricing designed for real currency pairs and liquidity structures built to scale as usage grows. This is just the start. More pools, broader market expansion, and deeper liquidity are on the way. Full details → mento.org/blog/mento-launche… Stay close. More is coming soon!

Mento joined as a Gold Sponsor at @Stable_Summit, where our CPO @denney808 explored what it takes to bring the $9.6T FX market onchain. He broke down why traditional FX systems fail most users& why stablecoins, when paired with oracle-anchored FX infrastructure, can offer a better alternative.
