Menese Protocol seeks SNS support after a year of cross-chain development

Menese Protocol is seeking support for a proposal on the Internet Computer’s Service Nervous System (SNS), saying its cross-chain infrastructure has been operating in production for the past year.

In a post promoting proposal 144002, the project said its infrastructure is already being used by ecosystem applications and that its technology supports cross-chain asset management and automated trading across decentralised exchanges.

Menese said the platform has been developed as production infrastructure rather than as a testnet or demonstration project. It highlighted its integration with CloakCoin, saying hundreds of users are already managing assets and automating trades across different blockchain networks through the platform.

The project has positioned cross-chain DeFi as its main focus, with infrastructure designed to connect assets and decentralised applications across multiple networks. Its website currently lists DEX trading across seven chains, including Ethereum, Solana, Internet Computer, XRP, Cardano, Sui and NEAR, while supporting additional networks for asset management.

Menese’s publicly available SDK documentation also describes its infrastructure as a multi-chain execution layer, with support for automated on-chain actions across 19 blockchains.

The protocol has previously highlighted its work with CloakCoin and its efforts to bring privacy-focused functionality into the Internet Computer ecosystem. In May, Menese announced that its first cross-chain concentrated liquidity market maker pools had gone live, with CLOAK paired with USDC on Solana.

Menese has also been developing privacy infrastructure. Its public GitHub repository includes a shielded ledger project designed to keep transaction amounts, balances and sender-to-recipient links from being publicly readable.

The current SNS proposal comes as Menese prepares for the next stage of its rollout. The project’s announcement says its planned sequence includes an SNS process, followed by a token sale and then a launchpad and centralised exchange listings.

The proposal is now available on the Internet Computer governance platform, where the community can review and vote on it.

Menese’s latest public forum discussions also show that questions around decentralisation, code transparency and user-fund exposure remain part of the community conversation. In a September 16 discussion, the team said some canisters handling user funds remain restricted, while identifying the Solana-ICP and CloakCoin CLMM canisters as exceptions that had been opened to users for production testing. The team said the CloakCoin pool would be capped at $10,000 until it comes under DAO control and its code is public.

The project is now asking the Internet Computer community to consider proposal 144002 as it seeks to move its cross-chain infrastructure into its next phase.
