Acala is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that operates on the Polkadot network. The platform provides a range of financial services, including a stablecoin, a decentralized exchange (DEX), and a liquidity protocol. Acala's main goal is to create a cross-chain DeFi ecosystem that allows for seamless interoperability between different blockchain networks.
Acala was created in 2019 by Fuyao Jiang, Ruitao Su, Bette Chen, and Bryan Chen.
Acala offers four main products:
- Acala's stablecoin, called aUSD, is collateralized by a basket of assets, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as other stablecoins. This basket of assets helps to maintain the stability of aUSD's value, making it a reliable medium of exchange within the Acala ecosystem.
- The platform's DEX, called Acala DEX, allows users to trade cryptocurrencies without the need for a central authority. This means that users can maintain control of their funds while still participating in the decentralized economy.
- Acala's liquidity protocol, called Homa Protocol, enables users to earn interest on their cryptocurrency holdings by providing liquidity to the network. Users can earn rewards in the form of aUSD by locking their cryptocurrency into the protocol's smart contract.
- Acala also features a governance system that allows users to participate in the decision-making process for the platform. Users can propose and vote on changes to the platform's protocols, ensuring that Acala remains decentralized and community-driven.
