Well, butter my biscuit and call me a crypto wizard, but Mantle (MNT) has gone and done a silly dance, leaping 13% on *Saturday*, August 16th, like a frog on a hotplate. That’s a whopping 30% in two days, which is more than your average Ankh-Morpork merchant makes in a month of selling questionable sausages. 🌭💸

Meanwhile, the crypto market decided to have a collective sulk after some U.S. PPI data came in hotter than a dragon’s breath. Bitcoin, which had been strutting around like a peacock at $124,000, slumped back to $117,000, dragging its altcoin mates down with it. Ethereum, Solana, and Cardano all looked like they’d lost their favorite hat. 🧢😢

Mantle’s Magical 30% Leap: Bybit’s Staking Spell or Just Plain Luck? 🧙♂️✨

The whole kerfuffle started on August 14th when Bybit EU, in a fit of generosity (or perhaps sheer madness), announced its first-ever launchpool featuring MNT. Apparently, you can toss your MNT into the pot alongside XION and USDC and watch the rewards pile up like a dwarf’s gold hoard. 🏦💎

First-ever @BybitEU launchpool.

This wasn’t just any old staking product, mind you. It’s the first MiCA-compliant one on Bybit, which is like getting a stamp of approval from the Patrician himself. 🏅📜

But wait, there’s more! On Saturday, Mantle and Bybit decided to double down on the fun, announcing two more use cases for MNT. Because why stop at one when you can have three, right? 🎉🤹♂️

Less noise, more execution.

Together with @Bybit_Official, we’ve shipped another two new uses cases for $MNT:

1️⃣ Double Win on Bybit Earn

2️⃣ Crypto Content Creator Campus

“Double Win” on Bybit Earn lets MNT holders ride the market’s rollercoaster in both directions, while the Crypto Content Creator Campus lets creators buy tickets and tools with MNT. It’s like a circus, but with fewer clowns and more blockchain. 🎪🔗

All this was hashed out in a joint AMA session, where Mantle’s role in bridging utility, education, and liquidity was discussed. Or, as I like to call it, “making crypto less confusing than a wizard’s spellbook.” 📚🧙♂️

With staking, structured products, and creator economy integrations all popping up like mushrooms after rain, Mantle’s looking less like a token and more like a Swiss Army knife. If trading volumes keep up, MNT might just keep soaring like a broomstick with a rocket strapped to it. 🚀🔥

MNT Price: Bulls Eye $1.35, But Shorts Are Lurking Like Trolls Under a Bridge 🌉👹

After a 30% jump, MNT’s price has finally crossed $1.30, which hasn’t happened since January 2025. But the derivatives market is whispering that the party might hit a snag. According to Coinglass, there’s a cluster of short positions between $1.31 and $1.40, totaling $5 million. That’s a lot of bears waiting to pounce. 🐻⚔️

On the flip side, there’s $16 million in long positions, which is like having a wizard on your side in a bar fight. And with 24-hour trading volumes hitting $599.3 million, it’s clear the market’s paying attention. 📈👀

If the shorts get squeezed, MNT could blast past $1.40 and aim for $2. But if it can’t hold above $1.30, it might tumble back to $1.20, especially if the market decides to have another tantrum. 🤕🌀

For now, though, with trading volumes up, the community buzzing like a hive of bees, and staking demand through the roof, MNT’s rally looks set to test $1.35. Unless, of course, the bears bring out the big guns. 🐻🔫

BTC Hyper Presale: Because Who Doesn’t Love Instant Bitcoin Transactions? ⚡💨

While Mantle’s busy making waves, BTC Hyper is quietly raking in $5.46 million in its presale. It promises instant, low-cost Bitcoin transactions, which is like having a teleportation spell for your money. Plus, staking rewards of up to 1,052%? That’s enough to make even a dwarf drool. 💰💦

If you’re looking to diversify and hitch a ride on Bitcoin’s resilience, BTC Hyper’s presale is still open. Just don’t blame me if you end up richer than a noble and twice as smug. 🤑👑
