Manta Network 2026-2032 Price Outlook After Staking Ends

Manta Network announced on May 6 that staking rewards will stop on May 20, 2026, ending on-chain MANTA emissions and closing the project’s inflationary staking program. In a post, the project wrote that “staking rewards will officially stop in two weeks on May 20, 2026,” and that “operators may exit the program at any time starting immediately.” The notice added that after the deadline no further network rewards will be generated.

At the time of the announcement MANTA traded around $0.068, with a market capitalization near $30 million and a circulating supply of about 465.43 million tokens. Short-term technical levels cited by market trackers showed resistance at $0.06973 and support at $0.06567, a 14-day relative strength index near 54, a 50-day simple moving average around $0.06493 and a 200-day SMA near $0.08112. Intraday commentary identified a potential upside target near $0.07272 if buyers breach immediate resistance and a possible corrective level near $0.06203 if selling resumes.

Analysts and modelers published a range of price forecasts for MANTA from 2026 through 2032. One set of projections lists a 2026 range from a low of $0.05 to a high of $0.80, with an average near $0.60, and maximums rising in subsequent years to $5.00 by 2032. Other trackers offered lower short-term estimates, with Coincodex projecting about $0.216 for 2026 and $0.177 for 2027, and DigitalCoinPrice listing $0.14 for 2026 and $0.19 for 2027. Forecasts provided ranges rather than single-point targets.

MANTA’s recorded all-time high was about $4.08 on March 13, 2024, and an all-time low of $0.053 occurred on October 11, 2025. The token first traded on public markets in January 2024 at roughly $2.24 and experienced multiple rallies and declines through 2024 and 2025.

Manta Network launched in September 2023. The project describes itself as a modular zero-knowledge rollup for Ethereum that supports Solidity smart contracts and includes a decentralized identity layer with a focus on compliance. The staking announcement allows operators to exit immediately and sets a final date after which no further rewards will be issued.

Analysts producing the multi-year forecasts cited technical indicators, on-chain metrics and expectations for broader market cycles when modeling prices. Market participants and modelers are expected to factor the end of staking emissions into future supply assumptions and trading strategies as MANTA continues to trade and show volatility.
