A multichain oracle infrastructure that delivers reliable, real-time data for assets in emerging markets, enabling accessibility and Interoperability.
IFÁ Labs is a multichain oracle infrastructure that delivers reliable, real-time price data for local stablecoins and financial instruments - unlocking global accessibility and interoperability. We are building the first oracle intentionally optimized for emerging-market assets, starting with Africa and Latin America, and expanding to all RWAs and stablecoins onchain. On top of that, we built an oracle-based swap protocol that is engineered for stablecoin-to-stablecoin transactions. Unlike traditional AMMs, it prioritizes price stability, low slippage, and efficient execution - minimizing volatility and eliminating impermanent loss. We are creating the foundation for a robust and scalable stablecoin ecosystem.
Local Stablecoins & RWAs Are Invisible Onchain
According to Cointelegraph, approximately 86.95% of DeFi products rely on Chainlink, Pyth, WINkLink, Switchboard, and Chronicle for price data.
Major oracle providers (Chainlink, Pyth, Chronicle, Switchboard, etc.) currently do not support local assets in emerging-market, largely due to high listing requirements, typically:
~$3M daily trading volume
~$9M liquidity
Multiple deep-liquidity markets
This excludes early-stage stablecoins like cNGN (Nigerian stablecoin), ZARP (South African stablecoin), BRZ (Brazillian stablecoin), CADC (Canadian stablecoin), local tokenized assets (MMFs, Cash crops, real estate etc), and limits them from being integrated into DeFi, RWAs, or payment products. It’s a critical infrastructure gap.
IFÁ Labs is designed to support emerging-market digital assets, real-world currencies, financial instruments, and real world assets (RWA).
Verified price feeds for global & local assets
Financial instrument feeds (T-bills, commodities, money-market instruments, etc.)
Custom feeds for tokenized RWAs
Oracle based-swap protocol
We make it possible for developers on Mantle to build FX-powered apps, Stablecoin DEXs, Remittance/payment rails, Lending/borrowing protocols, RWA tokenization platforms, Treasury and yield products
Onchain Oracles: Decentralized smart-contract–readable price feeds that deliver real-time, verifiable data for stablecoins, fiat FX, and selected crypto assets across multiple blockchains. These feeds are designed for DeFi protocols, lending markets, swaps etc.
Local & Emerging-Market Asset Support: Native support for local stablecoins and fiat currencies (e.g., cNGN, BRZ, CADC) that are typically excluded from major oracles due to high liquidity and volume requirements. This unlocks onchain accessibility for underserved markets.
Multi-Source Data Aggregation: Prices are aggregated from multiple sources. This reduces reliance on any single source and improves accuracy and resilience.
Price Verification & Integrity Layer: A dedicated verification system that checks timestamp freshness, source consistency, deviation limits, and peg stability before publishing prices. Onchain verifier contracts acts as a safeguard against stale or manipulated data.
Public Price Auditability: Every asset price published by IFÁ Labs is publicly auditable. Anyone can inspect price sources, timestamps, update frequency, and historical values- ensuring full transparency and trustlessness.
Oracle-Based Stablecoin Swap Protocol: A native swap protocol powered directly by IFÁ Labs price feeds, optimized for sawps. It prioritizes price accuracy, minimal slippage, and capital efficiency - without reliance on traditional AMM mechanics.
Developer Community & Ecosystem (Telegram): An active developer forum where builders gain Early access to oracle feeds and tooling, Technical support and integration guidance, Opportunities via hackathons, grants, and partnerships, and Direct feedback loops.
Mantle is positioning itself as a global hub for RWAs, stablecoins, and next-gen DeFi.
However, to unlock emerging-market RWA growth, Mantle needs rich, verifiable data beyond the standard crypto-only or USD-only assets supported by existing oracles.

IFÁ LABS team.
During the Mantle Global Hackathon, we made significant progress in expanding IFÁ LABS into a fully functional oracle infrastructure on Mantle Testnet. 1. Oracle Core Deployment on Mantle Testnet We successfully deployed the IFÁ PriceFeed and PriceFeedVerifier contracts on Mantle Testnet. These contracts now support assets, demonstrating our oracle’s multi-asset capability. 2. Multi-Source Aggregation Pipeline Implemented We built and integrated a lightweight off-chain aggregation engine that fetches, validates, signs, and relays data to Mantle. This includes assets in emerging markets and RWAs to be priced reliably on-chain. 3. Stablecoin Swap Demo We developed a functional demo dApp: an oracle-powered stablecoin-to-stablecoin swap. This validates the oracle’s accuracy, low-latency updates, and how developers can build FX and payment products using IFÁ Labs on Mantle. 4. Documentation & Developer Tools We published updated documentation for fetching oracle data, and a sample smart-contract consumer for Mantle developers. Overall, the hackathon allowed us to validate IFÁ Labs as a viable oracle layer for Mantle.
IFÁ LABS is currently self-funded, and actively exploring more strategic partnerships that may evolve into investment opportunities. We have not yet raised external capital, but we are in early discussions with ecosystem partners, stablecoin issuers, and Web3 infrastructure funds who have expressed interest in our oracle model, particularly its focus on emerging-market assets and RWAs.
