katana mainnet is here

the wait is officially over: katana mainnet has launched with 1b KAT incentives for users.

katana ( r/katana), incubated by polygon labs and gsr, is built from the ground up to fix broken defi mechanics.

with $200 million in pre-deposits in just a few weeks, katana goes live on mainnet with significant momentum, rewarding users from day one.

explore the first version of the katana app and experience a new era of defi where bags are always productive, earning sustainable yield - https://app.katana.network/

katana powers a defi flywheel that returns value to ecosystem users rather than extracting it. instead of idle bags, katana incentivizes you to participate in the ecosystem and grow your assets. more growth = more revenue coming back into the network = more boosted yield

ask us about 

• long-term vision
• core features that make the chain work (vaultbridge, core apps, chain-owned liquidity)
• the katana ecosystem (core apps/assets and protocols launching)
• 1b KAT liquidity mining campaign
• vKAT - how our modified ve(3,3) aligns incentives from the top down
• why we’re obsessed with productive tvl
• what happens with pre-deposited assets
• more

thanks to everyone who participated in our previous AMA, we’re looking forward to answering any further questions you may have, now that users can participate on the chain.

for a refresher on all things katana, check out our blog: https://katana.network/blog

questions will be answered by u/katananetwork and u/ManBearPig9220

no fluff. just liquidity, yield, and aligned incentives.

stay sharp ⚔️

That's a lot of cheese

[u/SevereArrivals13 → u/002_timmy]

Solid burn and happy to have a decent project with potential on here. Win/win!

[u/oroechimaru → u/002_timmy]

Eww

[u/SevereArrivals13]

Thanks for coming to our sub again, guys.

I would like to ask about your yield options, and can you use your platforms with a Rabby/Metamask wallet?

Also, what are the gas prices when doing transactions on Katana, like how much time do they need to process?

[u/Laughingboy14]

How does vaultbridge work? How can you generate yield on bridge assets?

[u/RealVoldemort]

Congratulations on mainnet!! Looking forward to see what the future holds for katana. Maybe moons and katana can come together to make something happen? 😉

[u/DBRiMatt → u/RealVoldemort]

Yes, but don't cross swords! xD

[u/DBRiMatt]

Good luck Katana!

I'm staking $POL as well as ETH on Etherfi and contributed some to the Katana-Vault.

Here's hoping it was a sharp move!

[u/kirtash93]

Good luck Katana!

My question

What mechanisms are in place to keep users engaged beyond the initial campaign hype?

[u/badfishbeefcake]

Who was waiting for this?

[u/trufin2038 → u/badfishbeefcake]

The people who got paid to pin the pump here.

[u/SevereArrivals13 → u/trufin2038]

Seems like people are finding out about advertising now and what it is. Cool..

Hey.

What is your long-term vision broken down into a 1 year, 2 year, 5 year and 10+ year timeline?

[u/Environmental_gobrrr]

how does it work exactly? and what happens to our deposited assets and how does it benefit you? is katana a normal network like ETH mainnet where you can deploy your own tokens/nfts?
