Meet Antara: money that moves like a message.
Hold dollars, euros, pesos, yen and more in one place.
No bank holds it, no one can freeze it. Payments settle in under a second, any hour, any day.
Built on the @KeetaNetwork
Banks included, custody excluded.
Deposit by ACH, wire or SWIFT. Send to bank accounts in 60+ countries, through Bivo Inc., a licensed money transmitter, after a one-time identity check.
Unlike on other neobanks Antara never holds your money. Your keys stay on your phone.
Issue it. Restrict it to KYC’d holders. Settle it atomically in 400ms.
No smart contracts. All built into the ledger.
That’s @KeetaNetwork for banks.
$KTA
The only problem was KTA <-> USDC on one anchor. The anchor that handles 9 on-chain currencies ran smoothly in all our extensive testing. Even the KTA swap problem can be routed around through anchor chaining. That’s the beauty of the anchor model: more anchors means less dependence on any single bridge.
@KeetaNetwork is currently in a phase where there’s a significant gap between its actual capabilities and some people perceive it. Anyone who’s actively building on the network understands just how powerful the underlying technology is and the enormous potential it unlocks. But much of that value isn’t immediately obvious to those only looking at it from the surface. It’s a classic capability–perception gap, and Keeta is a prime example of it right now.
In other words:
What’s coming next will make the true magnitude of Keeta’s potential increasingly evident.
@swizzz33@AlpacaDex@KeetaNetwork CAD deposits into KUSD are connected directly to major institutional FX markets that process tens of billions of dollars in daily volume. As a result, a $50,000 transaction would have a negligible impact on market pricing or liquidity.
We haven’t experienced any issues swapping between stablecoin currencies on the network so far. There are some known issues with KTA-to-USDC swaps, but nothing considered a major showstopper.
Can’t comment on the exact liquidity available since that would be a question for Keeta or Bivo.
You can now run your own node on Keeta.
Three weeks ago I put the first external node on Keeta mainnet. Now slop node is out for everyone – it's a few lines with Docker.
The true digitalization of finance, especially in cross-border contexts, has stalled. Blockchain technology may bring about a new chapter where money is as fast as the internet is. However, current blockchains are unscalable and clunky and I don't see them being the next financial backbone at all.
Keeta is insanely fast. Settlement is sub-second and deterministic. Using its components, for the first time in history, a solo developer with an AI agent can set up an entire neobank in just minutes. I believe Keeta will power a new wave of financial apps, where the best user experience, security, and feature set will win.
I can't wait to see how Keeta develops, but right now its source code isn't fully public and third parties are not able to run their own nodes. I fed Claude Opus 5.5 the public parts of the code, my understanding of Keeta, its docs and forum discussions. Then came about 6 hours of refinement and setting up an environment where the agent could evaluate itself. Finally, it ran for a few days autonomously.
The end result is a fully functional Keeta node. It's primarily for experimentation, please don't rely on it for high value applications (yet?).
$KTA
AI agents are starting to spend money on traditional bank accounts. Here's what it looks like when an agent gets its own bank account instead: network-enforced limits, every currency in one account, final in 400 ms, and pay-per-API-call with x402.

Keeta Stablecoins sit in the same account as your dollars, euros, and crypto. Hold them, send them, and switch between them in Keeta Personal and Keeta Business today.

(1/5) Keeta Stablecoins are live on mainnet.
KBUSD, KBEUR, KBJPY, KBCNY, KBGBP, KBCAD, KBMXN, KBAED, and KBHKD.
Bivo, a licensed money transmitter, issues each one and backs it 1:1 with funds held in regulated financial accounts.
Stablecoins solve one problem and create another. Moving value fast is easy. Moving that value to a bank rail, another chain, or a card network usually isn’t as convenient.
On the Keeta network, stablecoins and other tokens sit alongside fiat in the same account. Anchors connect to banks in nearly any country, atomic swaps run with as-needed KYC, cross-chain transfers are native, and direct-to-card payments are coming.
That’s what stablecoins actually need: not just an asset that moves fast, but one that’s compatible with the payment industry it’s trying to join.
