Kujira and Partners Merge to Form Rujira Alliance for THORChain’s New Era

Source Livebitcoinnews
  • Kujira and its partner join the Rujira Alliance to create a new DeFi app layer for THORChain.
  • The integration will use the new RUJI token, while current KUJI token holders will be impacted.

Kujira, a decentralized finance (DeFi) network, has announced the formation of the Rujira Alliance in collaboration with three important ecosystem partners: Fusion (FUZN), Unstake (NTSK), and Wink. This new cooperation intends to create a novel application layer for the cross-chain liquidity protocol THORChain, which will be powered by a new native coin called RUJI.

The Rujira Alliance is a significant merger, with Kujira and its partners collaborating to expand THORChain’s capabilities. The newly formed firm will concentrate on developing a sophisticated app layer on THORChain, which is projected to transform the DeFi area with a full array of goods, including order books, perpetual contracts, a token launchpad, NFTs, loans, and money markets. This new infrastructure is designed to work smoothly with the eight current chains.

Impact of the Rujira Alliance

John-Paul Thorbjornsen, the founder of THORChain, voiced tremendous excitement about Rujira’s potential. In a recent remark, he asserted that the alliance had the capacity to compete with major platforms like Solana, citing its strong security, decentralization, liquidity, governance, and lack of miner extractable value (MEV). Thorbjornsen highlighted that Rujira restores the innovative spirit of Terra’s 2020 app-chain ecosystem.

The acquisition is in reaction to Kujira’s substantial concerns, which include liquidity issues and security vulnerabilities. In August, the Kujira team announced a KUJI token sale to address these challenges, with Thorbjornsen pledging $2-3 million to finance the transition to the new Rujira app layer. Despite the difficulties, the alliance’s establishment is viewed as a strategic move to stabilize and propel Kujira and its partners into a new era of development.

Following the revelation, KUJI, Kujira’s native token, plummeted by 70% in less than 24 hours. KUJI is currently trading at $0.37, a decline of more than 93% from its all-time high of $5.56. In contrast, THORChain’s RUNE token has exhibited upward momentum, gaining by 7% in the previous 24 hours to a trading value of approximately $4.03.

As the Rujira Alliance prepares to launch, the DeFi community is closely watching how this strategic combination will impact the future of decentralized finance and cross-chain liquidity solutions.
