THORChain is a decentralised liquidity network that uses a chain-agnostic bridge protocol alongside continuous liquidity pools (CLPs) to create incentivised, always-on liquidity for users to trustlessly swap any asset across any chain. THORChain can bridge to almost all major UTXO, account and contract-based assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, their code-forks as well as their tokens using threshold signatures. The RUNE token is the native token of the ecosystem and is used as the liquidity asset in all liquidity pools. Users stake RUNE alongside other assets (like Bitcoin, Ethereum and Monero) to earn on liquidity pools. The deeper the liquidity pool the less slip experienced by traders swapping assets. Validators stake RUNE to form the consensus set and opt-in to run bridge nodes for each chain. Validators are paid a block reward as well as exit fees on all bridges to create the right incentives to support the bridging infrastructure. RUNE is burnt on-chain every time transactions and trades are made, which offsets the emission to validators. RUNE has a maximum supply of 500m on launch, which will asymptote to a maximum of 1bn. As transaction fees increase the burning of RUNE, then the emission increases, rewarding validators, but not penalising holders since there is always a finite supply. THORChain will be launched in 2020 and will support BinanceChain, Bitcoin, Ethereum and Monero.
