Katana is a DeFi Layer-1 chain incubated by Polygon Labs and GSR, designed to maximize on-chain liquidity and real yield. Its Vaultbridge system redeploys bridged assets like ETH and USDC into yield strategies on Ethereum, while Chain-owned Liquidity (CoL) channels 100% of sequencer fees into deep, protocol-controlled liquidity pools. Katana’s native AUSD stablecoin, backed by US Treasuries, powers lending markets and DEX liquidity with off-chain yield incentives.
Linea is Consensys’ zkEVM rollup offering bytecode‑level equivalence with Ethereum and zero‑knowledge proofs generated by the Scroll‑inspired ‘Plonky3’ prover. The network is integrated directly into MetaMask, and sequencer fees can be paid in any ERC‑20 via a paymaster contract. Linea has secured over 200 million TVL and finalises proofs on mainnet every 10 minutes.
