Description

Thala is a comprehensive decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol, or "HyperApp," built on the Aptos blockchain, designed to serve as a primary liquidity engine for the Move ecosystem. The protocol is structured around three core modules: Thala Swap, an advanced Automated Market Maker (AMM) supporting various pool types like stable, weighted, and liquidity bootstrapping pools (LBPs); Move Dollar (MOD), an over-collateralized, yield-bearing stablecoin backed by a diverse basket of on-chain assets; and a Liquid Staking Token (LST) solution for Aptos (APT) that uses a two-token model (thAPT and sthAPT) to offer enhanced yields. Through these primitives, Thala provides a suite of services including asset trading, token launches, yield generation via liquidity pools and staking, and efficient borrowing through Collateralized Debt Positions (CDPs). The platform integrates with key ecosystem partners like oracles (Switchboard, Pyth) and bridges (LayerZero, Wormhole) to offer a seamless DeFi experience.
