Inveniam to acquire Mantra after turbulent year marked by OM crash

Inveniam Capital Partners has announced its intent to acquire the layer-1 blockchain project Mantra, marking a significant consolidation in the real-world asset (RWA) infrastructure sector. This acquisition follows a $20 million strategic investment by Inveniam into Mantra in August 2025 and the subsequent launch of the NVNM Chain, a layer-2 solution designed for secure asset verification. The move aims to integrate regulated blockchain infrastructure with AI-ready private market data to better serve institutional investors and asset owners. Mantra has faced a turbulent period, most notably a 90% collapse of its OM token on April 13, 2025, which erased over $5 billion in market capitalization. CEO John Patrick Mullin attributed this crash to forced liquidations by centralized exchanges rather than internal mismanagement. Despite these challenges, Inveniam views the acquisition as a strategic step to accelerate the delivery of digital private markets. By absorbing Mantra, Inveniam strengthens its technological stack at the intersection of RWA tokenization and artificial intelligence. This development highlights the ongoing trend of infrastructure providers seeking to stabilize and scale RWA ecosystems through strategic acquisitions.
