Sherpas, OMies, and broader crypto community,
First off, the team and I greatly appreciate the support that we have received over the past several hours, which we believe is a testament to the strong support MANTRA has among its investors and community.
We have determined that the OM market movements were triggered by reckless forced closures initiated by centralized exchanges on OM account holders. The timing and depth of the crash suggest that a very sudden closure of account positions was initiated without sufficient warning or notice.
That this happened during low-liquidity hours on a Sunday evening UTC (early morning Asia time) points to a degree of negligence at best, or possibly intentional market positioning taken by centralized exchanges.
Centralized exchange partners play an important role in providing liquidity to projects like ours. We work closely with them, however they continue to exercise enormously high levels of discretion. When discretionary powers are exercised without due internal and external oversight, dislocations like what recently happened can and will occur, hurting both projects and investors alike.
To be clear, this dislocation was not caused by the team, the MANTRA Chain Association, its core advisors, or MANTRA’s investors selling tokens. Tokens remain locked and subject to the published vesting periods. OM’s tokenomics remain intact, as shared last week in our latest token report. Our token wallet addresses are online and visible.
MANTRA is a project that has survived and operated throughout multiple market cycles. When others stopped building, we kept going. This is no exception. As our recent suite of announcements indicate - from being the first DeFi protocol licensed by Dubai’s VARA, to integrations and initiatives that will broaden and strengthen our ecosystem, we’re committed to our community and we’re here for the long term.
In the coming hours, we will host a community connect on X, to discuss these events further. Please do NOT click on any scam links or accounts pretending to be affiliated with MANTRA. All official communications will ONLY come from my personal account or the main MANTRA X account.
