Polygon Integrates Manifold for Institutional DeFi Liquidity

Polygon Labs has integrated Manifold Trading’s execution engine into its AggLayer infrastructure, bringing institutional-grade liquidity to the Polygon DeFi ecosystem. By deploying Manifold’s data-driven market making and on-chain arbitrage strategies across major Polygon decentralized exchanges, the collaboration aims to deliver tighter spreads, consistent pricing and continuous two-sided liquidity. The phased rollout aligns with the recent Rio upgrade, on-chain proof-of-reserves initiative and new compliance features to attract fintechs, neobanks and other institutional investors. According to Maria Adamjee, head of investor relations, deep, stable liquidity is foundational to a mature DeFi market, while Manifold’s Noah Hanover highlights expected improvements in market stability and depth at scale. Following the announcement, Polygon’s native token POL traded near $0.20. Traders should monitor the enhanced order routing and automated market-making tools for signs of increased capital inflows and improved price efficiency in Polygon’s DeFi liquidity pools.
