THORChain is a decentralized cross-chain liquidity protocol that enables native-token swaps across major blockchains directly from self-custody wallets, without centralized exchanges, wrapped tokens, or bridges. RUNE is the native token used for swaps and liquidity in all pools, with network fees paid in RUNE and a TCY token that earns 10% of protocol fees; nodes bond RUNE to participate in the network. The system is permissionless and private (no KYC or accounts), open-source, and designed as back-end infrastructure that developers can integrate into apps, wallets, and websites to access a single global liquidity marketplace.
