By extending $MNT into Solana, Mantle accelerates its role as a distribution layer that connects real-world value to the most active on-chain internet capital markets, without fragmenting liquidity or user experience.

“Byreal provides a natural home for cross-chain assets like $MNT,” said Emily Bao, Founder of Byreal and Head of Spot at Bybit. “With $MNT live on Solana, users can access competitive on-chain yield while contributing to deeper, more efficient liquidity across ecosystems.”

“Solana was built to support internet capital markets at scale: enabling price discovery for every asset on-chain, 24/7, and globally,” said Ramzy Ali, DeFi Growth Lead, Solana Foundation. “The integration through Mantle Super Portal allows users to leverage Solana’s DeFi ecosystem, connecting assets to highly composable markets designed for speed, liquidity, and global participation.”

Bybit Alpha Powers a Connected CeFi–DeFi Experience for $MNT

In parallel, Bybit Alpha will support $MNT trading and incentive programs, with full Solana deposit and withdrawal functionality enabled via Mantle Super Portal.

Users can trade $MNT on Bybit Spot and Alpha, participate in incentive campaigns and trading competitions, and benefit from transaction fee savings. Bybit’s integration creates a continuous capital flywheel that provides a centralized liquidity layer that complements on-chain activity, enabling users to combine DeFi yield with exchange-level rewards and capital efficiency.

“Bybit Alpha is designed to surface early opportunities with real utility,” said Emily Bao, Founder of Byreal and Head of Spot at Bybit. “Supporting $MNT on Solana allows users to move seamlessly between on-chain yield on Byreal and trading incentives on Bybit, all within a connected capital loop.”

Advancing Mantle’s Multichain Distribution Strategy

With Mantle Super Portal, Byreal, and Bybit Alpha working in tandem, $MNT now operates across Ethereum, Solana, and centralized venues through a single, integrated framework. This unified setup enables efficient capital mobility without compromising liquidity depth, execution quality, or user experience.

The expansion strengthens Mantle’s role as a connective layer between Layer 2 infrastructure, Solana’s DeFi markets, and CeFi platforms, extending $MNT’s utility across the full spectrum of on-chain and exchange-based activity.

“This launch represents a key step in Mantle’s multichain vision,” said Emily Bao, Key Advisor at Mantle. “By enabling $MNT to operate seamlessly across Mantle, Solana, and Bybit, we’re expanding real-world use cases and reinforcing Mantle’s role as a distribution layer for on-chain finance.”

Asthma and Allergy Drug Development Is Failing Too Often–A Translational Reset Is Needed: HKEY-AIRx™1.0

BOSTON and SUZHOU, China, Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — HKeyBio, a preclinical CRO focused on autoimmune and allergic disease drug development, today announced a translational preclinical strategy, HKEY-AIRxTM1.0  designed to address one of the most persistent problems facing biotech leadership: why so many asthma and allergy programs with strong preclinical data fail to deliver meaningful clinical outcomes.

Over the past decade, asthma and allergic airway diseases have attracted substantial investment, the emergence of advanced biologics, and increasingly sophisticated targets. Yet for biotech and biopharma decision makers, the outcome is familiar—high attrition, limited differentiation, and late-stage disappointment. In many cases, the root cause is not target selection, but how preclinical evidence is generated and interpreted.

“Too many asthma and allergy programs enter the clinic with data that answer academic questions rather than development questions,” said HKeyBio’s scientific leadership team. “From an executive perspective, the real risk lies in making early decisions based on models that do not reflect disease endotypes, clinical positioning, or patient heterogeneity.”

From Scientific Signals to Executive Decisions

HKeyBio’s asthma and allergy strategy, HKEY-AIRxTM1.0 is built explicitly to support executive-level decision-making, not just experimental readouts. The framework aligns:

  • Disease endotypes and patient heterogeneity
  • Drug mechanism and modality differentiation
  • Preclinical model choice and translational endpoints

This approach enables biotech leadership teams to evaluate whether a program is likely to deliver clinically meaningful benefit in a defined patient population—before committing to costly IND and clinical development milestones.

Rather than relying on single-model efficacy narratives, HKEY-AIRxTM1.0 applies a portfolio-based strategy that reflects the biological and clinical complexity of asthma and allergic airway diseases, including T2-high, non-T2, and innate immune–driven mechanisms, as well as acute inflammation versus chronic airway remodeling.

De-Risking Capital Allocation in Asthma and Allergy Pipelines

For biotech and biopharma leaders, asthma and allergy programs often represent a disproportionate allocation of capital relative to their probability of success. HKeyBio’s integrated preclinical ecosystem, HKEY-AIRxTM1.0 is designed to reduce that imbalance by generating data that directly inform:

  • Go/no-go decisions
  • Asset differentiation versus the Standard of Care
  • IND-enabling strategies and early clinical design
  • Portfolio prioritization across multiple indications

By emphasizing translational endpoints and biomarker strategies, HKeyBio helps clients move beyond the question of whether a compound “works” in a model to whether it is investable, defensible, and clinically actionable.

A Strategic Partner, Not Just a Service Provider

HKeyBio positions itself as a strategic preclinical partner for biotech and biopharma companies developing next-generation therapies for asthma and allergic diseases. The company supports programs spanning small molecules, biologics, and multispecific or combination approaches, with an emphasis on aligning preclinical evidence with regulatory and clinical realities.

To ensure seamless collaboration across regions, HKeyBio operates on a dedicated, co-located team model for strategic projects, providing U.S.-based clients with direct points of contact during their business hours for real-time communication and project oversight. Our operational protocols ensure data integrity, process transparency, and rigorous compliance. We uphold the highest standards of confidentiality and intellectual property protection, with clear IP frameworks defined at project inception. These foundational practices are built on ISO 9001 certification, adherence to GLP principles, AAALAC accreditation, and are validated by over 500 successful IND submissions. This is what enables us to deliver not just data, but the clarity and confidence needed for decisive capital allocation. 

“Our clients are not looking for more data—they are looking for clarity,” the HKeyBio team added. “Our role is to help leadership teams make earlier, better-informed decisions that protect both patients and capital.”

Combatting the Energy Crisis: Eworld Showcases Low-Energy Glass Processing Machinery and Sustainable Solutions at Major Global Expos

International trade shows highlight Eworld’s energy-efficient glass processing technologies for architectural and industrial applications

JINAN, China, Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — High energy costs and tightening environmental regulations are no longer just future concerns; they are the immediate reality for the global glass industry. Shandong Eworld Machine Co., Ltd. (Eworld Machine) is meeting this crisis head-on. The company recently concluded a high-profile global tour, presenting its latest suite of low-energy glass processing machinery at premier industry exhibitions in Turkey, the United States, Russia, Mexico, and Saudi Arabia.

Eworld's Large-scale glass processing machinery supporting efficient, low-energy manufacturing for architectural and industrial glass
Eworld’s Large-scale glass processing machinery supporting efficient, low-energy manufacturing for architectural and industrial glass

The mission behind this international circuit was clear. Eworld Machine is moving beyond standard manufacturing to provide the technical infrastructure required for a low-carbon future. These exhibitions, including Eurasia Glass in Istanbul and GlassBuild America, served as a proving ground for the company’s argument that industrial precision and environmental responsibility are now inseparable.

Direct Market Engagement from Istanbul to Las Vegas
The tour’s momentum was built on high-profile stops like Eurasia Glass in Istanbul and GlassBuild America. These weren’t just static displays; the Eworld booth stayed busy with live runs of CNC glass cutting machines and automated insulating glass lines. For many industry professionals meeting the team face-to-face, the draw was simple. They saw an opportunity to modernize their workshops without the massive energy overhead that usually comes with high-end automation. It was about practical upgrades that work on the factory floor, not just on a spec sheet.

Technical and sales teams handled a steady stream of inquiries. They focused on practical solutions. They didn’t just talk about specifications. They showed how these machines handle the specific climatic and architectural needs of regions like the Middle East or North America. The goal was to build a business bridge that lasts longer than a single trade show.

Engineering for a Low-Carbon Advantage
Energy prices are rising and regulatory pressure is mounting across the globe. Eworld’s newest suite of processing tools tackles these headaches through smarter engineering. The design team has successfully cut power consumption while keeping precision levels at an industry high.

The company’s laser glass cutters provide a clear example of this balance. These machines use intelligent algorithms to maximize material yield. Every millimeter of glass is accounted for. This reduces waste significantly. It also lowers the energy cost per unit produced. Similarly, the company’s insulating glass machines help manufacturers create high-performance windows. These finished products help keep modern buildings cool in summer and warm in winter, which lowers HVAC costs for the eventual property owners.

Specialized Support for the Building Ecosystem
Eworld Machine recognizes that different clients have different pain points. A large construction firm has different needs than a boutique glass processing shop. Their service model now reflects this reality.

Large building companies require volume. For them, Eworld provides high-efficiency lines capable of churning out safety and fire-rated glass for massive projects. Real estate developers often care more about the final performance of the facade. Eworld’s machinery ensures that curtain walls offer the soundproofing and UV protection required for luxury or commercial developments. Even for smaller enterprises, the company offers scalable CNC setups. These allow smaller shops to achieve high-end precision without a prohibitive initial investment.

A Commitment to Sustainable Manufacturing
Environmental protection is a core part of the company’s operational philosophy. It is a philosophy that starts in the R&D lab and extends through to the final installation.

“We prioritize environmental protection by adopting low-energy and low-pollution processes throughout our manufacturing cycle,” stated Ewin Wang, the Founder of Eworld Machine.” Our goal is to help our clients lower their own energy consumption while improving the overall green performance of their projects. We provide the machinery, but we also provide the technical consulting needed to ensure every project uses the right processing method for its specific structural and functional requirements.” 

About Eworld Machine
With over two decades of industry heritage, Shandong Eworld Machine Co., Ltd. is a dominant force in the global glass and window machinery market. As one of the leading glass machine manufacturers and traders, Eworld provides everything from glass cutting, edging, and washing machines to advanced PVC and aluminum window machinery. The brand is defined by high-precision standards and equipment built for durability in harsh environments. Today, Eworld supports clients in over 50 countries, including the USA, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Mexico, ensuring that local technical support is never more than a phone call away.
