# Supala’s Role in Advancing the Mantle Ecosystem ## Expanding Mantle’s RWA Utility Supala transforms tokenized stocks on Mantle from passive representations into productive, on-chain collateral. This increases the real economic activity of RWAs within Mantle’s ecosystem. ## Establishing Mantle as the Omnichain RWA Hub By anchoring collateral and risk management on Mantle while enabling cross-chain borrowing via LayerZero, Supala positions Mantle as the central settlement layer for omnichain RWA liquidity. ## Introducing a New DeFi Lending Primitive Supala’s tradeable collateral model unlocks a new design space for DeFi on Mantle, enabling lending, borrowing, and active portfolio management to coexist in a single protocol. ## Driving Liquidity and User Growth Supala attracts cross-chain users, RWA holders, and advanced DeFi participants into Mantle, increasing TVL, transaction volume, and ecosystem stickiness. ## Laying the Foundation for Institutional DeFi With permissionless access, predictable collateral behavior, and real-world-backed assets, Supala provides core infrastructure that can support future institutional-grade financial products on Mantle. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
