Deep Tide TechFlow News, January 22 — According to official sources, Mantle announced a key protocol upgrade, officially adopting Ethereum Blob as its core data availability layer. This move marks Mantle’s evolution from its original Validium model to a full Ethereum ZK Rollup architecture, ensuring that its transaction data security remains consistent with the Ethereum mainnet.

This strategic transformation is made possible by the latest Fusaka upgrade to the Ethereum mainnet, which significantly increases Blob data capacity and throughput. As a result, Mantle can provide Ethereum-level security for ecosystem applications without sacrificing low costs and low latency performance.

Mantle’s product leader Joshua stated that this is a natural outcome of the deep coordination between infrastructure and Ethereum expansion roadmaps. While adopting Ethereum’s native data layer, Mantle will continue to collaborate with ecosystem partners like EigenLayer, focusing on high-performance perpetual contracts, prediction markets, and AI infrastructure, jointly advancing the scalable development of Web3.
