The Mento Townhall AMA Highlights with @denney808
Building FX onchain isn’t just about faster swaps
It’s about opening a $7.5T market to anyone, anywhere, with real-world rates and 24/7 access.
I tried exchanging DAI for USDT during peak congestion.
The swap failed but still burned huge gas fees. Watching ETH vanish for nothing was painful a harsh truth that stablecoins aren’t immune to blockchain inefficiencies.

$7.5T moves daily through traditional FX, behind the walls of banks and opaque settlement layers.
Mento turns that into open infrastructure, bringing every currency onchain.
Where you live shouldn’t decide how your money moves.
