Not stopping until decentralised liquidity 10x bigger than centralised. $RUNE
THORChain has suffered a sophisticated attack on the ETH Router, around $8m. The hacker deliberately limited their impact, seemingly a whitehat.
ETH will be halted until it can be peer-reviewed with audit partners, as a priority.
LPs in the ERC-20 pools will be subsidised.
With Q3 at a close, a report detailing the quarterly progress of the

Happy New Year from the Ordiswap Team 🧡
We cannot be more excited for 2024 & moving towards unlocking unparalleled liquidity on BTC's L1 🧪

THORChain is currently the only way to swap layer1 unwrapped ETH for layer1 unwrapped BTC.
Sounds so simple. It took 4 years to solve it. But now that is out of the way, let’s get into layer1 unwrapped DeFi.
$RUNE
$RUNE is fully distributed.
The Treasury sits on 7m RUNE (1.4% of supply) for long term ecosystem funding.
Literally everything else is circulating, burnt or locked in the protocol.
Major investors all puked last cycle. Only the thorchads hold rune now.
Welcome to DeFi, $DOGE!
The native $DOGE pool is now live.
Users can now deposit, trade, and earn $DOGE on their $DOGE.
Liquidity will deepen significantly throughout the week.
Extending an olive branch 🫒 to
@ledgerstatus
and a public apology 🙏
We interpreted his comment as hostile and engaged, when we could have pleasantly educated.
Ledger is a great member of the community and is highly regarded.
60m $RUNE was burned from the Standby Reserve, creating 20m RUNE ($140m) in space for lending collateral.
There is now room for ~2000

or 36k ETH in THORChain lending. No liquidations, no interest.
Details on Medium:
Haven team have completed initial testing of the THORChain-Haven client and are now preparing it for further validation and review by THORChain devs.
The next major milestone will be launching the chain on THORChain stagenet.

March 2024 was the first month in THORChain history with over $10b in trading volume 🎉
A major win for DEXs, but the goal is unambiguously to flip the volume and liquidity of centralized exchanges.
Bitcoin liquidity will live natively, on-chain. Onwards
By being the first to launch a Multichain AMM protocol, $RUNE is now being solidified as the base asset for decentralized, KYC-free Bitcoin trading.
And ETH and LTC and BCH and BNB.
More to come.
THORChain is currently the only operational cross-chain Liquidity Protocol for Layer1 assets.
Over 12 months getting baked in the wild. Survived everything thrown at it.
Now it's time to scale. $RUNE
By the end of the year, most wallets you know about will have integrated THORChain.
It's happening, right now. The team have taken calls non-stop with wallets over the last few weeks.
$RUNE
THORChain is back online.
The next few weeks the network will progressively open up and chaosnet can resume.
Targeting mainnet before end of year.
$RUNE
Thankful for all the community devs, contributors, meme-ers, builders, first class citizens, mods, testers, auditors, collaborators, and haters.

This user did a 10 BTC swap test, then followed with 100 BTC.
Largest swap on TC seen to date.
Suffice to say, they got what they were quoted. TC does not muck around.
TC is ready for $10m swaps, soon $100m swaps.
The treasury has acquired all the assets to restore solvency on the network.
Several insurance proposals are being reviewed.
When the freshly audited protocol is operational next month it will both be solvent and insured.
$RUNE
THORChain is infrastructure for Bitcoin, primed for ordinals enjoyers to bring liquidity to Bitcoin from ETH, or anywhere else.

Decentralisation is an inconvenience until you need it.
Then it’s critical.
Don’t get caught swimming naked when the tide goes out.
THORChain is the only cross-chain protocol that has made no compromises on decentralisation.
That is all. $RUNE
Many were watching, but now they're paying attention
There's never been a better time to integrate swaps, savers, and borrowing powered by
@THORChain
With built-in affiliate fees, major wallets have the potential to collect 6-7 figures of revenue monthly, while beating price…
$RUNE is currently the only asset in existence that has direct liquidity with L1 assets (BTC, ETH etc), without needing CEX.
You know where it's headed next.
$RUNE
When lending is turned on, $RUNE becomes deflationary:
1) All derived asset slip fees permanently burn RUNE
2) Perma-locked loans will never redeem RUNE (these are non-zero and constantly increase)
More burn features are planned.
The first known malicious attack on THORChain.
Loss of funds: $140k
Attack path: logic error on Eth Bifrost when handling symbols same as ETH
Fix: Bifrost
Node Defence: halt Bifrost and THORNode
Time to respond: ~30 mins
Affected users: none (treasury will cover)
$THOR price has stabilised.
The THORChain treasury will begin entering the THOR:RUNE pool, with intent to own 20-30% of the liquidity.
This will be converted to Protocol Owned Liquidity.
All THORFi projects get THORChain treasury backing.
$THOR $RUNE
Lending - shipped.
Maybe perps next?
Why:
- constantly burning $RUNE thru slip fees
- burning the excess collateral above liquidation price
- open Interest is held as $RUNE equity (derived assets)
This will make RUNE deflationary and de-risk lending.
It's May 2022. THORChain is still the only cross-chain DEX that:
- has 100+ permissionless nodes
- verifies reserves publicly every 10 mins
- churns every 3 days to escape capture
- economically secures every $1 with $2+ in bond
Onwards
Deposit Bitcoin. Earn Bitcoin. 3-5% APY (Current rates)
Deposit Bitcoin. Withdraw USDC as debt. 0% interest. No liquidations.
These two features combined together will forever change everything.
Who's ready? $RUNE
The redemption arc has begun. ATH in swaps, volumes, users, TVL.
THORChads have ground, worked, hustled and shipped for years for this moment.
The largest cross-chain DEX is about to become much, much larger.
Onwards.
In the last 30 days, Thorchain and Cosmos' IBC have been at the forefront of cross-chain volume, recording $4.82 billion and $3.35 billion, respectively.
Among Layer 2 bridges, the Arbitrum Bridge took the lead with a volume of $1.21 billion.
🚨 Savers Vaults Are Live 🚨
Finally, the most sought after centralized product is now available on THORChain. Earn in-kind yield on native assets:
#BTC
$ETH
#BNB
$BCH $LTC $DOGE $ATOM
#AVAX
Full Details:
THORChain is now the Dex with the highest volume/TVL ratio.
THORChain: 43%
Uniswap: 25%
PancakeSwap: 5.7%
Curve: 4.3%
When THORChain has the TVL of Uniswap it will be doing twice its volume.
Ask yourself why. $RUNE
$UST is by far the best stablecoin in the ecosystem. Period.
It has just one issue with reflexivity but that has been addressed by the recent stress tests.
It will continue to pick up adoption and Lindy.
Looks like Tether is sailing straight into a lot of trouble - and rightly so.
DeFi needs a better stablecoin
Perharps $UST will soon be ready to fill the gap

In coordination with the Tendermint team we were able to figure out how to speed things up. We've tested a fix on 4 nodes now and things are looking good (they're all at the latest round).
NOs - check the THORNode Announcement channel for details!
Goddamn. THORChain has never been in such a strong place.

$660m in daily volume, with BTC doing almost half that.
THORChain now provides over 98% of decentralised L1 BTC swap volumes.
CEX doesn't count - they're just IOUs on a SQL database.
$UST is by far the best decentralised stablecoin.
There's nothing even close.
Liquid, decentralized, utility, with a buyer of last resort - the economic activity of TerraFi.
Taking notes 📝
$UST growing by the day - its the best marker of the health of the Terra ecosystem.
We've added $300 million in less than 1 month
That is some mega $Luna burn; check out the trading volumes too.
And we haven't yet got 10 protocols running yet!

The future of exchange is a web of THOR-likes aggregating liquidity to form an unstoppable network of exchange. Differing trust assumptions, economics, validators - working together to dethrone the centralised gatekeepers of today

I think I need to be spoon fed why they aren’t competitors
Or is it more of a respectful rivalry between teams with the same end goal?
Lending Ready for Launch
Nodes are asked to vote the MaxRuneSupply to 500m. Once this node mimir reaches consensus, lending will be launched.

Terra is being stress-tested. $UST mint/burn creates price-reflexivity on $LUNA and discount is a measure of uncertainty.
@d0h0k1
and his team/backers have their fingers on the pulse and are moving fast.
$UST to return to parity. Back the builders. Long innovation.
Binance Smart Chain is not a competitor to Ethereum.
It’s the pressure relief valve allowing ETH to stay decentralised while the DeFi TAM can grow.
It’s a great addition to the space giving time for ETH L2 and ETH 2.0 to get ready which don’t need to be rushed.
$BNB $ETH
THORChain is too important not to deliver on.
The complexity of the state machine is currently its archille's heel, but this can be solved with more eyes on, as well as a re-think in developer procedures and peer-review.
Thanks all for support, there's only one way forward.
Like this tweet if you think the future of exchanges are self-sovereign user-owned wallets.
And the backend is a decentralized liquidity protocol.
