Mango Network: Reinventing Multi-Chain Interoperability with Universal Infrastructure
Mango Network (MGO) is a Layer1 blockchain using the DPoS consensus mechanism, aiming to solve three core Web3 bottlenecks: fragmented liquidity, high development thresholds, and performance limitations. The project innovatively integrates MoveVM’s security features, EVM’s compatibility, and Solana VM’s high throughput, achieving the vision of “develop once, deploy anywhere.” On June 24, 2025, KuCoin launched the MGO GemPool staking event. Users could mine tokens by staking KCS or MGO, with over $2.4 million staked in the first hour—signaling strong market recognition of multi-VM architectures.

This Token Insights article delves into how Mango Network integrates MoveVM, EVM, and Solana VM to build high-performance omni-chain infrastructure, and discusses its token economics and ecosystem development.
Technical Architecture: Multi-VM Integration and Performance Breakthrough
The collaborative architecture of three virtual machines is Mango Network’s core innovation:
-
MoveVM, based on the Move language, provides formal verification to ensure financial asset security.
-
EVM ensures seamless Ethereum compatibility, allowing developers to migrate contracts with zero cost.
-
Solana VM (SVM) supports high-frequency trading, meeting GameFi and DeFi performance demands.
The three VMs interact via a shared state management mechanism, enabling users to operate multi-chain contracts with a single account—without wrapping assets via cross-chain bridges.
For example, a lending protocol on MoveVM can natively call liquidity pools on SVM, enabling native-level asset flows.
Performance Parameters Redefining Industry Standards
Stress tests on the testnet showed a peak TPS of 297,450—4.5x higher than Solana. Gas costs dropped to $0.0008 (denominated in CELL), only 1/10 the average of Ethereum L2. Transaction finality reached 2 seconds, eliminating traditional cross-chain waiting delays. These results are supported by the OP Stack scaling framework and ZK compression, which reduces storage costs by 90%. For multi-chain development practices, see the JuCoin Cross-Chain Guide.
MGO Token: The Economic Engine of the Ecosystem
Token design focuses on utility and deflation:
-
Core utilities: pay cross-chain transaction gas fees (converted to CELL units); DPoS nodes must stake MGO to produce blocks; developers earn MGO rewards for deploying multi-chain apps.
-
Deflation mechanism: 30% of transaction fees are burned in real-time; malicious node stakes are slashed and burned, mitigating inflation.
-
Distribution strategy: focuses on ecosystem construction. Although the total supply is not public (estimated at 10 billion), initial circulation is released via KuCoin GemPool to avoid sell pressure. Stakers earn rewards and governance rights to decide protocol upgrade directions.
Ecosystem Progress: From Testnet to Mainnet Expansion
Milestone Events:
-
Feb 2025: “Odyssey” testnet completed a 45-day stress test, verifying multi-VM concurrency stability.
-
June 24, 2025: KuCoin GemPool launched, with over $2.4M staked in the first hour. Event runs through July 1.
-
End of June 2025 (expected): Mainnet launch, with 12 Move-based DeFi protocols and 8 Solana-based games as the first migration batch.
Developer Ecosystem Readiness
Notable projects already integrated include Aptin (Move-based lending) and StarHeroes (SVM AAA blockchain game). Support for multiple languages (Move/Solidity/Rust) significantly lowers entry barriers—more inclusive than Polkadot’s Substrate-only model. After mainnet launch, over 50 projects are expected to deploy in Q3.
Challenges and Prospects: Opportunity Games in a Multi-Chain Ecosystem
Technical risks:
- Architectural complexity: Optimistic execution in SVM may conflict with formal verification in MoveVM, requiring precise fault-tolerance design.
- Mainnet stability: Delayed from Q1 to end of Q2 due to VM optimization. Must maintain 99.9% uptime.
- Token balance: If burn rate is lower than issuance, sell pressure may increase.
Competitive Advantages Over Rivals
-
Compared to Cosmos IBC’s 1–6 minute latency, Mango achieves 2-second finality.
-
Compared to Polkadot’s ~1,000 TPS, Mango delivers ~300,000 TPS—ideal for high-frequency use cases.
Core validation metrics:
-
Cross-chain transaction ratio >40% of total
-
Mainnet stable for 7 days
-
50+ projects migrating by Q3
Future Path: Becoming Web3’s Cross-Chain Operation Base Layer
Mango Network’s evolution spans three stages:
-
Q3 2025: Mainnet stabilization, first ecosystem migration, 5 million daily transactions target
-
Q4 2025: Integrate RWA asset protocols, support tokenized real estate and other compliant use cases
-
2026: Expand into the Middle East, adapt to Islamic finance sandbox rules
Project success hinges on deep ecosystem adoption. If cross-chain transaction share remains above 40%, Mango can capture key market share in GameFi and RWA. If multi-VM collaboration fails, ecosystem fragmentation may follow. Balancing performance and security is key—MoveVM + EVM + SVM is Mango’s strategic breakthrough.
