THORChain encourages and supports friendly forks, such as Maya Protocol.​ These forks contribute to a network of interconnected chains that can be accessed through aggregation and can collectively grow their market share.​

This is where I see the dex space heading: Many forks of #THORChain, bootstrapped with RUNE pool and dex aggregation. It doesn't take a whole lot of liquidity to become usable for large trades due to streaming swaps. 2 forks of THORChain that I hope to see: Private Chain -

THORChain Proposes Revenue Share Model for Affiliates

THORChain has introduced **ADR-029**, a proposal that would allow the protocol to share swap fee revenue with approved affiliates instead of charging users higher fees. The **REVSHARE mechanism** aims to: - Incentivize high-value integrations with THORChain - Drive increased swap volume through the protocol - Keep swap costs lower for end users Node operators are currently voting on this governance proposal. The change would fundamentally alter how affiliates are compensated, shifting from user-paid fees to protocol revenue sharing.

馃攧 Rujira's instant lending

**THORChain's block-based settlement creates a timing gap** that prevents perfect real-time arbitrage. Swaps settle at the end of each block in a fixed order鈥攕ecure by design, but not instant. **Rujira Network bridges this gap** through its Virtualisation Strategy: - Users receive tokens **instantly** from Rujira's lending pool - Rujira executes the actual THORChain swap at block end - Charges a small premium while absorbing brief price risk **The result**: automatic arbitrage every block when price deviations occur, keeping THORChain prices more accurate and reducing slippage. Combined with Rapid Swaps, execution becomes notably faster. This builds on Rujira's earlier work capturing arbitrage volumes through concentrated liquidity strategies that track enshrined oracle prices鈥攂ringing value back into the ecosystem instead of external bots.
