@katana Developer Relations
@developer_dao DeFi investments lead

[Billyjitsu @Billyjitsu]

My journey with Api3 has come to a close. I'm incredibly proud of what we accomplished together as a team, and I'm grateful to end this chapter alongside people I now call friends.

On this new journey, I'm excited to announce that I've joined @Katana network as their Developer Relations Engineer.

So why Katana in the sea of layer 2s?

As many of you know, I'm deeply involved in DeFi, both as an active user and through managing yield strategies for @developer_dao to fund community initiatives. After exploring what Katana brings to the table as a chain, I'm convinced it has the potential to become the premier destination for sustainable, long-term yield generation in the space.

To all the builders, founders, curators, and communities out there: I want to hear from you. My DMs are open.
See you on the battlefield, Samurai. ⚔️

Real talk

Contrary to other platforms this is probably the only venue in this stage where the majority of activity is actually made by users.

So many platforms fake their OI & vol - although sometimes with understandable reasoning, it’s still cool too see accurate growth stats.

@mfisher10x even used one-sided volume in the screenshot. From my knowledge only ~$1 Billion of volume in that image was from the market maker. The mm barely takes, if it does, reasonable small sizes instead of thousands and thousands to fake volume.

Tbh one of the most transparent, if not the most transparent new project i’ve used it … they even have a public site where the @katana ecosystem revenue is visible 😂

KATANA PLANS REVENUE-FUNDED $KAT BUYBACKS FOR STAKERS

@katana would use trading fees, bridge yield and transaction revenue, sending all purchased tokens to avKAT holders. Buying is planned for later this year; full automation follows.

[Billyjitsu @Billyjitsu]

On top of all the @katana updates.
We are still cooking with perps.
Already 4 billion in trading volume and growing.

[Katana ⚔️ @katana]

Size matters.

At Katana, we run one of the largest trading competitions, with $130,000 going to traders based on volume and PnL every two weeks.

The next cycle starts now, are you in?

[DefiLlama Research @defillama_res]

With three acquisitions, @katana now owns the venues where activity on its chain happens: spot through Katana Swap, perps through Katana Perps, and yield through Vault Bridge.

Katana launched by steering liquidity toward preferred apps like SushiSwap and Morpho. Now, owning its core venues lets the chain route a share of their fees to stakers and plug in new revenue sources as they come online.

On Nov 17, vKAT gives way to avKAT, and stakers become the sole recipients of $KAT buybacks. This spotlight covers what that means for the chain:
