A popular crypto analyst is predicting continued growth for an altcoin that has already surged significantly over the past year.
In a recent update on X, crypto expert Michaël van de Poppe shared that Mantra (OM), a decentralized finance project, is poised for further gains.
Mantra is a vertically integrated blockchain ecosystem launched in 2020 that offers various financial services through its own blockchain.
Having already surged 2,800% this year, van de Poppe notes that OM recently hit an all-time high and is currently up about 30% from his previous update. He anticipates more growth for OM, especially with the increasing importance of real-world assets (RWA) in the market.
Recently, Mantra secured a $500 million RWA deal with UAE developer MAG.
$OM has announced a $500M Tokenization deal with UAE developer MAG.
This news has led to a new all-time high, while the RWA narrative starts to pick up momentum.
More than 90% in circulation.
As long as $0.85 holds, I’m expecting upward continuation on the chart. pic.twitter.com/2Tx7UXFNic

As of now, OM is trading at $1.29, up from $0.018 in August of the previous year.
Crypto markets have been under pressure for months, and many investors are asking the same question—where exactly are we in the altcoin market cycle?
Ethereum may not be the fastest or cheapest blockchain—but that’s precisely why institutional investors are embracing it.
According to the latest Santiment report, the crypto market is entering a critical phase, with a mix of bullish on-chain signals and cautionary sentiment indicators.
Russian state-owned defense and technology giant Rostec has unveiled plans to launch a ruble-pegged stablecoin and digital payments platform by the end of 2025, marking one of the country’s most significant moves yet toward blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
