Katana Foundation Announces Katana Network, Incubated by Polygon Labs and GSR

Katana Network is a DeFi-optimized blockchain incubated by Polygon Labs and GSR, designed to align user activity, application growth, and protocol revenue. Built on the CDK OP Stack and integrated with Agglayer and VaultBridge, it aims to deliver deep liquidity and sustainable yield across a unified, interoperable ecosystem.

Key Ideas

Katana concentrates liquidity across select DeFi protocols and channels idle assets into yield-generating vaults via VaultBridge, creating a self-sustaining revenue engine for both the chain and its users.
Developers and entrepreneurs can tap into this infrastructure to build or integrate DeFi services that benefit from Katana’s liquidity-first design, seamless Agglayer connectivity, and native economic incentives - positioning themselves for growth as the network opens to the public.
