Manta Pacific
Manta Network's modular Layer-2 — a Polygon CDK rollup using Celestia for data availability, with a strong ZK-applications focus.
Manta Pacific is the modular execution layer of the Manta Network. It is built on the Polygon CDK and uses Celestia as its data-availability layer rather than Ethereum calldata or blobs, which gives it materially lower fees than canonical Ethereum rollups.
Manta also operates Manta Atlantic — a separate L1 focused on privacy applications and ZK identity. The dual-chain architecture splits zero-knowledge UX (Atlantic) from cheap EVM execution (Pacific). MANTA is the shared token.
