Polygon taps into Manifold for institutional liquidity to DeFi ecosystem

2025/10/29 00:43

Polygon is integrating Manifold Trading, an institutional-grade quant firm to tap into data-driven liquidity and institutional-grade execution features for its decentralized finance ecosystem.

Summary
  • Polygon Labs is joining forces with quant firm Manifold to boost its DeFi ecosystem.
  • The platform eyes institutional-grade liquidity for its burgeoning market, including fintechs and neobanks.
  • Integration comes as institutions increasingly tap into opportunities across DeFi.

Polygon Labs announced its move to join forces with the quantitative investment firm Manifold via a press release on Tuesday. The aim is to bring institutional-grade liquidity to its decentralized finance ecosystem, Polygon Labs said.

Collaborating with Manifold allows the DeFi ecosystem across Polygon (POL) to leverage key market features such as tighter spreads, data-driven liquidity management, and consistent pricing. Bringing these to Polygon’s DeFi ecosystem is the next step towards transforming onchain markets amid an influx of institutional capital.

Polygon Labs eyes DeFi growth

A game-changer for Polygon is Manifold deployment of its quantitative market-making and onchain arbitrage strategies. 

These will go live across leading Polygon decentralized exchanges, and will be key to price efficiency and reduction of cross-venue dislocations. Manifold’s quant trading network also means access to continuous two-sided liquidity. 

Manifold also complements infrastructure upgrades like AggLayer, a decentralized cross-network protocol that unifies cross-chain liquidity.  

With liquidity fragmentation a major bottleneck for DeFi adoption, the quest to bring institutional players into the fold means providing an environment of professional liquidity management to the market. Polygon’s rollout of the Rio upgrade looked to address speed, efficiency and cost.

Manifold, on the other hand, allows for predictability, depth, and fair execution for users across Polygon DeFi, making it ideal for participants such as fintechs and neobanks. This benefits segments such as onchain payments and real world asset trading.

The Beijing Procuratorate announced a case of illegal USDT cross-border foreign exchange transactions involving over 1.1 billion yuan.

PANews reported on October 29th that, according to a report by 21st Century Business Herald, on October 28th, the Beijing Municipal People's Procuratorate released "Typical Cases of High-Quality and Efficient Performance of Financial Procuratorial Duties" (2024-2025). One case involved "using virtual currency to indirectly buy and sell foreign exchange, involving over 1.1 billion yuan." Between January and August 2023, Lin Jia, under the instruction of others, colluded with Lin Yi, Xia, Bao, and Chen to use multiple bank cards under their names to receive large amounts of RMB funds transferred from clients (such as Liu) connected to the "upstream" of an illegal currency exchange organization. This gang used virtual currency as a "bridge" to achieve the illegal purpose of cross-border fund transfers: Lin Jia and others converted the received RMB into USDT through multiple USDT trading platform accounts they actually controlled, and then completed the cross-border fund transfer through platform transactions, essentially engaging in disguised foreign exchange trading and profiting from it. According to the report, the total illegal business activities of the gang amounted to over 1.182 billion yuan, of which five members, including Xia and Bao, participated in activities ranging from over 149 million yuan to over 469 million yuan. On March 21, 2025, the Haidian District People's Court of Beijing issued a first-instance verdict, sentencing all five defendants to prison terms ranging from two to four years for the crime of illegal business operations, and imposing corresponding fines.

Justin Bieber’s First No. 1 Single Turns 10

The post Justin Bieber’s First No. 1 Single Turns 10 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Justin Bieber earned his first No. 1 on the Hot 100 in 2015 with “What Do You Mean?,” a song that marked his transition into mature pop sounds.

(Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images) Getty Images Justin Bieber’s music career was essentially nonexistent for several years, and fans were beginning to wonder when they’d get to hear from the pop star again — until, out of nowhere, he revealed his new album Swag would drop in just a few hours. The full-length, which blended pop and R&B, arrived shortly thereafter in mid-July, and it brought him back to the highest reaches of several Billboard charts this summer. More recently, Bieber delivered a second installment, titled, appropriately, Swag II, which is counted together with Swag for charting purposes in the United States As he celebrates songs from Swag II and the continued success of multiple tracks from the first edition, his first leader on the Hot 100 turns 10. “What Do You Mean?” Debuted at No. 1 “What Do You Mean?” debuted at No. 1 a decade ago, opening atop the Hot 100 on the chart dated September 19, 2015. The cut was not only Bieber’s first to start in first place, but — amazingly — his first ruler on the most competitive songs ranking in America. Justin Bieber Was a Superstar Without a No. 1 By the time “What Do You Mean?” arrived, Bieber was already one of the biggest pop stars on the planet. He’d racked up multiple hits in America, but he had never managed to lead the Hot 100. The Canadian musician had come…
