Katana directs chain revenue back to DeFi users for consistently higher yields. It starts with VaultBridge, which turns bridged assets into yield streams that back a perpetually funded real yield, boosting rewards for DeFi users. Katana is pioneering Productive TVL, assets actually being used in DeFi and reinforces this with Chain-owned Liquidity, permanent liquidity the chain controls.

Allora is the new AI standard for DeFi platforms and agents to achieve sharper, faster, and more reliable financial systems than any single language model can offer. Instead of choosing and managing models, users state their goal, and the system delivers the best result.
