A DeFi-first chain delivering deep liquidity & sustainable real yield, with chain-level ve(3,3).
Built by Katana Foundation. Incubated by Polygon and GSR.
#sol holders pay attention because Katana’s SOL Vault gives a direct path into Katana’s yield engine.
Katana’s TGE goes live on March 18 at 13:00 UTC.
It enters the market with $715M+ in productive TVL before launch, with roughly 95% of capital actively deployed across lending, swaps, and vault strategies.
More than 30 DeFi applications were already live across the ecosystem before broader market access.
The network also generated $3M+ in revenue while raising $0 in outside capital, which is rare for a DeFi launch of this scale.
#ARB and #OP showed how rollups can scale execution and bring more activity onchain.
#kat takes the next step by turning that activity into value that flows back to users.
That is where the model becomes interesting.
On Katana, 100% of net sequencer fees are recycled into the ecosystem.
Those revenues reinforce liquidity pools, strengthen lending markets, and support incentives across the network.
Katana’s native stablecoin (AUSD) generates off-chain income, and that yield is routed back into DeFi pools to boost stablecoin returns inside the ecosystem.
Another pillar is chain-owned liquidity.
Katana directs sequencer fees and other revenue streams into permanent liquidity positions across LP pools and lending markets.
This deepens markets, reduces slippage, and anchors more sustainable yield for participants.
The flywheel becomes simple.
More activity → more revenue recycled → deeper liquidity and stronger yield.
