> MNT derivatives volume reached $39 million while futures net outflows totaled about $4 million across tracked exchanges.

Mantle (MNT) saw derivatives activity intensify Oct. 7 as open interest declined and trading volume rose, a combination consistent with position unwinding during a period of weaker market momentum.

Open interest fell 14% to $50 million, while derivatives volume climbed 210% to $39 million. Spot trading volume also increased 89% to $48 million over 24 hours.

Futures outflows totaled $14.7 million versus $10.7 million in inflows, producing net outflows of about $4 million across tracked exchanges. The imbalance indicates that more futures value left exchanges than entered them during the period.

Spot netflow was negative $928,000 over 24 hours, with more than $10 million leaving exchanges. That outflow may have helped support the recovery in MNT trading during the session.

Mantle is an Ethereum Layer 2 network, while MNT is its native token. The market move centered on trading and derivatives positioning rather than a confirmed protocol announcement or filing.

Technical levels identified in the market analysis included $0.50 as possible support and $0.63 as a level that would strengthen the recovery setup, but neither represents a confirmed forecast.
