What is THORChain (RUNE) crypto?
THORChain, a decentralized liquidity protocol, allows users to exchange crypto assets across various networks. It also gives users full custody of their digital assets.
Users can swap an asset with any crypto through a permissionless liquidity protocol without relying on order books to source liquidity. The asset ratio in the pool also keeps the prices stable.
RUNE is the native utility token of THORChain. It is utilized as a base currency in the ecosystem.
Additionally, it works as a governance and security token as a part of a Sybil resistance mechanism. The THORChain nodes must pledge at least one million RUNEs to participate in a rotating consensus process.
