Not exactly a dividend in the traditional sense. but yes, **vKAT is designed to give holders access to protocol revenue over time**. When you lock KAT into vKAT, you gain: * **voting power** to direct where KAT emissions go (to specific pools or apps) * **fee share** from the defi pools you vote for * and in the future, **a cut of broader protocol revenues**. like sequencer fees, vaultbridge yield, and AUSD yield it’s more of a **governance-aligned revenue share**, where your influence and rewards are tied to how you participate, not just holding passively.
mainnet’s coming late june—but there are already multiple ways to get involved early: 🐢 [turtle club](https://app.turtle.club/campaigns/katana): pre-deposit in curated defi pools with predictable APR. funds available to withdrawal 3 months after mainnet launch. can withdraw anytime after mainnet, but you take a haircut on some of the APR earned 📦 [katana krates](https://app.katana.network/krates): deposit to get gamified lootboxes with a shot at outsized KAT rewards or a cryptopunk. withdrawal anytime after mainnet, no penalty. **join the community**: * [reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/katana/) * [x.com/katana](https://x.com/katana) * [discord](https://discord.gg/nHU8Hgww8v) earn before mainnet. shape the future of defi.
vaultbridge turns what would typically be idle assets in bridge contract on ethereum into real yield by routing them into curated lending strategies on ethereum. powered by **morpho**, and risk-managed by **gauntlet** and **steakhouse financial**. here’s how it works, and where the yield comes from: **how does vaultbridge work?** when users bridge assets like ETH, USDC, USDT, or WBTC to katana and opt in to vaultbridge, their L1 assets don’t sit idle in a bridge contract like other L2 bridges. they’re deployed into a low-risk curated vault strategy on morpho’s lending protocol on ethereum. * **vaults use morpho’s ERC-4626 standard**, a secure and modular framework for building and managing onchain lending strategies * **capital is lent out to high-quality liquid markets,** for example, blue-chip assets with conservative LLTV ratios, to generate sustainable base yield. not optimizing for yield here, optimizing for risk-adjusted returns. keep it conservative. the yield generated is **streamed back to katana**, where it’s used to **boost lending and LP rewards** in core defi apps. **where does the yield come from?** vaultbridge yield comes from the **underlying lending activity** on morpho vaults, specifically interest paid by borrowers on morpho. unlike yield farming or emissions-based incentives, **vaultbridge yield is organic**. it’s earned by putting capital to work in real markets. **what makes the strategies low risk?** two independent curators manage risk: 1. **gauntlet**: known for dynamic risk modeling across aave, compound, and uniswap. they bring economic simulations and scenario testing to determine safe collateral and borrowing thresholds. 2. **steakhouse financial**: experts in DAO treasury management and financial analysis. they bring a conservative approach to yield generation, prioritizing capital preservation and stable returns. they select which vaults and strategies are active based on katana’s risk appetite, which is low. we’re not chasing the highest yield. we’re chasing the best risk-adjusted yield, stable, repeatable returns using curated strategies managed by gauntlet and steakhouse. that yield flows back to katana and boosts yield on pools in core defi apps. **why this matters** vaultbridge turns passive bridge deposits into a **productive revenue engine** for katana's defi users. users get boosted rewards in defi pools from this revenue. and the chain doesn’t rely on solely on KAT emissions. this is what fuels the katana flywheel.
**is KAT/vKAT needed to use defi on katana?** no. anyone can lend, LP, borrow, swap, and mint AUSD without holding a single KAT. the gas token on katana is ETH. **so what’s the point of KAT?** when you lock it for **vKAT**, you unlock utility and rewards: * **vote on where emissions go**: direct KAT emissions to specific pools or assets. earn fees from the defi pools you voted for. * **earn protocol revenue**: down the road, when katana grows with robust network effects, vKAT holders can earn broader fees. like from sequencer fees, vaultbridge yield, stablecoin yield, etc * **exit anytime**: unlock vKAT back to KAT, but with a small fee redistributed to remaining vKAT holders vKAT isn't a requirement, but it's a helpful lever for those who want to shape the economy *and* earn from it.
blast gives users native yield in their wallets by auto-staking L1 assets, this has severely limited the growth of their defi ecosystem. katana doesn’t do that. instead: * **vaultbridge** sends yield from curated L1 strategies (via morpho) back to katana * **vaultbridge** **yield** goes to incentivize defi pools on katana, encouraging users do actually use defi on the chain (its a perpetually funded liquidity mining campaign that uses real yield instead of just KAT token emissions to boost the pools) * **AUSD** routes t-bill yield to boost stable pools. diversification of revenues for users. * **sequencer fees** fund chain-owned liquidity (CoL), which deepens markets, less slippage on trades, more stable in time of volatility * **CoL** earns yield too. that yield either compounds or boosts user rewards so instead of passive wallet yield, katana boosts *active* users in defi apps. you earn more by lending, LPing, or using yearn vaults. not just by bridging. ps: thanks for staking POL. agglayer’s how this all stays unified under the hood
polygon labs and gsr incubated katana because **existing defi chains haven’t solved the core economic problems**: unsustainable emissions, shallow liquidity, and misaligned incentives. katana is different in both **design** and **execution**: **real yield, not speculative emissions**: katana routes actual revenue from: * vaultbridge yield (via morpho on ethereum) * t-bill yield (via offchain AUSD treasury) * net sequencer fees * chain-owned liquidity earnings that yield **boosts defi pools**, not wallets holding idle tokens, and not extracted from the katana defi ecosystem. yes there will be KAT liquidity mining incentives, but this just further amplifies those yields, not a long term strategy. **productive behavior is required to earn**: you can’t farm passively by just leaving tokens in your wallet (like blast), you have to use them in defi to benefit from the rewards. vbTokens only earn yield when deployed in core defi apps. **chain-owned liquidity (CoL)**: katana builds its own liquidity layer from sequencer fees. liquidity that doesn’t flee during volatility. that stabilizes markets when things get crazy, reduces borrowing rates, tightens spreads, and lowers slippage on DEXes. **vKAT = voting with cash flow**: vKAT holders vote on future KAT emissions and earn a share of the fees on the pools that they vote for. this aligns long-term users, apps, and capital around shared outcomes. down the road, when katana grows with robust network effects, vKAT holders can earn broader fees, like from sequencer fees, vaultbridge yield, and stablecoin yield. other chains have brought attention to the defi-specific chain vertical. katana is built to **fix it**: structurally, not temporarily. that’s what makes it worth building, imo.
katana is different because it’s not just “another yield farm.” it’s a full-chain economic system where **yield is backed by real revenue, not inflation.** Here’s the simple version: * **vaultbridge**: When you bridge assets to katana, they go into real lending strategies on Ethereum (via [Morpho](https://x.com/MorphoLabs)). the yield from that gets sent routed to katana and used to boost rewards for users in core defi apps. * **AUSD**: katana’s native stablecoin, issued [by agora](https://x.com/withAUSD) and fully backed by offchain U.S. treasuries. that t-bill yield is also routed back to boost AUSD-denominated defi pools. * **sequencer fees**: 100% of net sequencer fees are recycled into Katana’s economic system. used to deepen liquidity and reward activity, not siphoned away. * **chain-owned liquidity (CoL)**: instead of relying on mercenary capital, katana uses its own revenue (like sequencer fees) to build a permanent liquidity reserve that *stays* even when others leave. this deepens markets, keeps yield stable, and reduces slippage on dex trades. additionally, yield generated from deployed CoL goes to further boost yield in core app defi pools. we are not trying to farm our users here. * [**KAT/vKAT**](https://katana.network/blog/the-network-is-katana-the-token-is-kat): if you hold the KAT token and lock it for vKAT, you *vote* on which defi pools future KAT emissions go. over time, vKAT holders will be able to receive actual revenue generated by the chain, like from sequencer fees, vaultbridge yield, and offchain stablecoin yield. other chains rely heavily on emissions and hype. katana is trying to build something more sustainable: a flywheel where **activity → real yield → more activity**, and the value created stays in the network. so yeah, it's defi, but rebuilt to actually work long-term.
there is no token presale. no one is buying KAT directly. the pre-deposit campaign rewards users who bridge assets early to help bootstrap liquidity and kickstart the flywheel. rewards include KAT, NFTs, and more. two frontends are available based on user preferences: 📦 [Katana Krates](https://app.katana.network/krates) – deposit and earn Krates (lootboxes) for shot at rare, outsized potential rewards like 10M KAT or a cryptopunk. pre-deposits fully liquid post-mainnet in late june/early july. 🐢 [Turtle Club](https://app.turtle.club/campaigns/katana) – traditional defi pools, predictable APRs based on a 1b FDV. 3-month soft commitment (can pre-deposit assets withdraw early, but receive a haircut on rewards) No KAT tokens are transferred until post-launch, and KAT for users unlock before anyone else: round 1 of KAT unlocks: pre-depositors & core app users unlock no later than feb 2026 (likely sooner) round 2 of KAT unlocks: infra & core contributors unlock no sooner than may 2026
Other than voting, what utility would KAT / vKAT have? Is KAT necessary to participate in defi on Katana?
tldr; KAT is the native token of the Katana ecosystem, designed to align users and core apps through a decentralized model. With a total supply of 10 billion, KAT is non-transferable until February 20, 2026, or earlier. It powers the ecosystem by enabling holders to earn fees and direct incentives via vKAT, a voting token. The tokenomics prioritize community participation, with no pre-sales or VC investors. KAT will support liquidity, incentivize users, and drive sustainable growth through a modified ve(3,3) model, benefiting the entire DeFi ecosystem on Katana. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.
Have they released the tokenomics on KAT? I can’t seem to find anything on Google.
Damn! All staked MATIC was automatically upgraded. I think you’ll still be alright as long as you keep staking. The KAT payout is a 4-year process (if I recall correctly, not at my desktop, would need to read the tokenomics blog post to be sure)

I really like NEXA too and got a bit out of the last small bump. Heard good things about KAT and couple of other AI coins too
Maybe KAT would've been a better example than the piratebay, since that founder actually got arrested.. Point is there's always 2 or 3 contradicting laws, and they'll just pick whichever fits their narrative, and if there is none, they'll just adapt one. Like how they recently rebranded piracy websites to fall under "dangerous markets" or something, whatever that means..
Limewire and KAT.. good old days..
I don't know if all the coins are newly listed; I checked many of them, and a lot have a trading history that's a couple of weeks old (albeit, like I said, with not much activity until the sudden meteoric spike). I have seen KAT too, so I'm guessing it is some kind of coordinated thing
The biggest gainer on kucoin is usually newly listed and pumping. However kucoin def has some older (prob dead) projects such as KAT that constantly pump and dump every few months it seems. Those are prob choreographed/planned.
SURV, KAT, MAKI super liquid and all offered huge opportunities for scalps today. Seems like it’s been forever since a day like this, thanks crypto gods.
I personally follow very small market cap coins, my 3 gems are AI, KAT, and SYLO. If you really look into them, you’ll understand the potential of these 3 for the long term
Bought AI and KAT. I see so much potential in these 2 projects, my long term HODLS.
Dunno about KAT, but KDA doesn't have atomic composability and has 1 minute finality making it *very* unsuitable for defi adoption long term. I don't know about short term, but, for the reasons I've touched on above, i doubt it compares to Radix.
dont sleep on Kambria (KAT) coin crazy potential , the team behind it is crazy not only that its been up 133.06% in the last few weeks !!!!!!
I mean… there is KAT (Kambria Network) coin on the Kucoin exchange! That’s pretty close! 😏
Everyone's wondering where the cat coins are, but what about KAT? Close enough for you?
Had I bought the 10 BTC back in 2012 (but couldn't, a family member took that money away), right now I would be chilling in a moderate eco hotel in some tourist town, smoking weed, playing games, watching reruns of sitcoms and downloading a huge terabyte stack of documentaries from KAT/PirateBay.
CARR POLX DENT KAT (Kambria) - most interesting in my opinion with room to go, it’s aimed at collaborating on Deep Tech. I’m always looking for unique coins particularly if they are involved in projects like robotics, AI, VR, AR, etc.
I disagree KAT is substantially underrated, he's just on an awful team, with bad management. Wolves ain't it
KAT as ALGO makes me wanna dump all my ALGO cause that dude isn't getting any better. Maybe Tatum is a better choice.
Thank you! Cryptocurrencies are just the tip of the Blockchain iceberg! (blockberg?) It's still too early to even say we're early. Internet-wise, we're at about '95/'97 adoption. We're still running dial up man! We've barely begun to scratch the surface on what is possible with Blockchain and it's iterations. A whole new world of innovation awaits us. Projects like VeChain working with Walmart, Audius with TikTok, and so many more that are integrating blockchains into sectors other than finance. If you think that's as far as it goes, you're sorely mistaken. Take a look at KAT and what they're trying to build. Talk about early. The future possibilities are literally endless. 5-10 years and quantum blockchains will be the buzzword. Innovation hasn't even begun to unfold.
I LOVE KIT KAT’s
Their new ownership group is finally going to help change that organization. Get grumpy KAT and D'Lo out and rebuild around Edwards.
WHAT'S THAT? WHOSE THAT? MOON KAT!!! 🌙🐱 Doge is scared...
#My friends… currently there’s a hackathon with KAT (Kambria) as the pushing currency for winners. Look into it.. researchers of robotics and AI are getting funded by this currency Take it from a physician. This is the future

#The future is AI and robotics … just discovered KAT (Kambria) and I’m thinking this might have some great potential. Any thoughts ??
BTT, ADA, KAT, TEL, DOGE, SAFEMOON, ELONGATE, and SHIB for shits and giggles
If you‘re looking for kucoin gems, also take a look at $KAT and $VSYS
KuCoin gems: KAT, VSYS 👀
Boys, throwing some gambling money into something tonight, shill me the best moonshots available on KuCoin or Binance.Us! Already got BEPRO, ONE, and KAT 🤙🏼
Anyone here bought into, or know much about KAT? I saw it had a low market cap and was available on KuCoin, which is about all I need to know to invest! Lol
I would love to hear why you think BTT and KAT specifically.
#when people told me to avoid DOGE I said nahhhhhhh. Bought in at .0016 back in February 2020. If you’re looking for another underrated currency.. the next moves are BTT and KAT. Thank me later 🚀
Some KuCoin moonshot like SYLO or KAT
I'm looking to make a $1000 punt on something with lots of volatility and that's really cheap. Will be hodling until I can cash out and buy a lambo. Anyone got any thoughts on KAT for a long term hodl?
Where can I buy KAT? What exchange offers it?
Has anyone heard of a low cap coin Kambria? They are a tech team working on AI blockchain integration. Short name is KAT
GVT - 4.4 million tokens and has a fully operational and successful platform. KAT - tech head development, peer reviewed. Incredible white paper with a solid team trying to integrate AI and Robotics with blockchain. Incredibly low priced with high upside and future
I’m loading up on GVT and a AI project called KAT (Kambria).
I think KAT and VRA should be listed on Binance
Thanks. You interrupted me deciding whether or not to go all in on KAT or DOGE
What do you think about KAT? Nope, not Karl Anthony Towns
Bullish on projects that use the Binance chain now. And a little old AI project you may have yet heard of (Kambria). I’d like to see KAT listed on Binance soon
Ready for KAT to explode
Watching Verasity break out meanwhile quietly on the Binance DEX.. Kambria (KAT). Everyones looking at the top 100 when it's the alt coins outside that are doing the lifting now.
Anyone know anything about Kambria? KAT. Got a tip off from someone that they are involved with AI and Tech. Potential Binance listing?
This. I had positions in KAT and KMD, got tired of them crabbing, and exited. Both did a 10x since then :')
VRA or KAT my friend. Thank me next year
VRA or KAT are some gems to hold on to
Break me off a piece of that kit KAT bar
How are we feeling about KAT today? Any fans out there?
VRA, KAT, FTM 3 great coins to check out
Good choice! Next check out some KAT
KAT is the coin that my group is deep diving into research the last couple of weeks and probably jumping in on this week
Anyone on that KAT train? We are going places this week!
Where are the KAT fans?! Morning shill time
$KAT crazy small market cap, amazing team, really good partnerships. Could get legs!
KAT is my new bag. Small market cap, crazy smart team, nice partnerships. Could have legs!
KAT AI/Robotics development. They have a partnership with Ohmni Labs that’s pretty interesting
$KAT - Education block chain, love that!
Spent a few hours going through Kucoins coin listing to see if I can find any gems. Wow, there is some real garbage out there. The amount of coins listed with teams/social media that have gone inactive is amazing. While I didn't find any real solid projects I did find these three that were interesting. Has anyone heard of these or, has any other coins you've looked into? 1. KAT - Kambria - super slick and well polished website and looks to be a solid team. They claim to "**Accelerating Open Innovation in AI & Robotics".** Whatever that means. Overall this was the most promising of the 15 or so I looked through 2. CAPP - Cappasity - Online marketing for generating 3D images / products. Only available on KuCoin, with some more exchanges could be interesting 3. CV - CarVertical - Essentially Car Fax in block chain. Interesting idea but not convinced on the team
Your money honestly might be better spent towards higher potential projects like: UBX, BEPRO, VRA, SRK, KAT
BEPRO, VRA, KAT, SRK , and UBX shouldn't be ignored.
Kambria $KAT Check out their website https://kambria.io/ They go +60% in the last 24h and the marketcap grow from 6,4b to 10,4b With a cool community https://t.me/kambriaofficial Gimme your thoughts of this one!
Forget the coin appreciation aspect of it, look into what CTI, & KAT want to be with regards to their tech on one in industry that is already a giant.....pharma and the other on AI/Robotics which will become a behometh
I feel the same way!!!!!!!! But thinking long term. Getting in now versus a month later can mean the difference between 10x over the next or 100x by getting it right now!!!!! I’m funding 3k this weekend on more LINK, STORJ primarily and the other half on more of STMX, CTI, KAT & HOT 🚀🪐💥🙏🏻
Picked some up a few days ago along with Coval, CTI, KAT, HOT and some STMX. Coval is on the move 🚀
KAT(AI/Robotics blockchain developer), CTI(Bio/pharma blockchain clinical studies platform), COVAL(Brinks truck of blockchain) - all will have real utility in the future 🚀🪐💥
Easy, AGI will lead the pack. KAT and other AI projects will follow. ( you might want to get into KAT while it's under a cent...)
