Manta Pacific

What is Manta Pacific?

Manta Pacific is an EVM-native, modular execution layer optimized for the deployment of zero-knowledge (ZK) applications. Built using Caldera’s OP Stack and Celestia for data availability, it offers scalable, low-cost infrastructure for developers building privacy-preserving and ZK-native dApps.

Key Features

• Cost Efficiency: Designed to be 80% more cost-effective than other Layer 2 solutions, thanks to its modular architecture and Celestia integration.
• ZK Development Made Accessible: Manta’s Universal Circuits abstract away cryptographic complexity, enabling Solidity developers to build ZK-enabled applications without learning new tooling or languages.
• Proven Traction: Manta Pacific has onboarded over 1.5 million users, with more than 300,000 zkSBTs minted and 200,000 wallets installed across its ecosystem.

About Manta Network

Manta Network is developed by a team with backgrounds from Harvard, MIT, and Algorand, and backed by leading investors such as Binance Labs and Polychain Capital. The project has participated in top-tier accelerators like Alliance DAO and Berkeley Blockchain Xcelerator.

How Does Manta Pacific Work?

Manta Pacific leverages a modular blockchain stack composed of:

• Celestia: Provides the data availability layer, decoupling consensus and execution for higher throughput.
• Universal Circuits 2.0: A generalized ZK library for calling ZK-enabled functions directly from Solidity smart contracts.
• zkSBTs (Soulbound Tokens): Enable privacy-preserving, non-invasive compliance workflows, such as KYC or credential verification, without revealing personal data.

Integration with Cryptoworth

Manta Pacific integrates with Cryptoworth to support enterprise-grade crypto accounting. This connection enables accounting teams to:

• Track and Reconcile MANTA Token Transactions: Categorize activity across wallets, dApps, and bridges within the Manta ecosystem.
• Generate Subledger Reports: Automate journal entries, ensuring accurate and GAAP-compliant crypto reporting.
• Support for zkSBT-Based Transactions: Cryptoworth enables traceability of zkSBT usage for proof and compliance reporting—without compromising data privacy.

FAQs on Manta Pacific

Does Manta Pacific have a native token?

Yes. The ecosystem utilizes the MANTA token for governance, transaction fees, and protocol incentives. It is integrated into Cryptoworth for proper tracking and reporting.

What makes Manta Pacific different from other ZK platforms?

Unlike custom ZK chains, Manta Pacific supports EVM-native development using Solidity and familiar tools. Its Universal Circuits simplify ZK integration for smart contracts.

Can ZK-related transactions be tracked in accounting software?

Yes. When integrated with Cryptoworth, ZK-related activity—such as zkSBT issuance or zkApp interactions—can be categorized and included in digital asset subledger reports.
