Version 2 Released! Our biggest documentation upgrade to date.

Phase 2 – Engine & Liquidity

Phase 1 proved that thUSD works. Phase 2 is about turning it into something people want to hold.

This phase is where Tharwa's infrastructure starts compounding: vaults get smarter, yield gets distributed, and liquidity moves beyond simple DEX pools. The Confluence Engine begins actively managing the portfolio, and the foundation is laid for scalable integrations across both DeFi and institutional rails.

This is the first phase where protocol logic starts to feel alive.

What Phase 2 Unlocks

The Confluence Engine Goes Live

  • Active optimization of RWA allocation begins using AI agents and CVaR-based strategies

  • The engine continuously adjusts vault exposure to protect against tail risk while seeking real yield

  • Real-time analytics and on-chain signals drive portfolio decisions, transforming this from a static vault system

This marks the transition from a passive treasury to an actively managed, risk-aware capital machine.

sthUSD Launch - Completed

  • sthUSD successfully deployed - ERC-4626 yield-bearing stablecoin now live on mainnet

  • Zero entry/exit fees implemented to encourage adoption

  • Instant withdrawals with optional cooldown system for enhanced security

  • Real yield distribution from RWA portfolio to sthUSD holders

  • Full audit completed by PrismSec with 0 critical findings

wthUSD & wsthUSD Development

  • wthUSD (Wrapped thUSD): Dual-lane architecture enabling access to global market strategies

    • Maintains faith-aligned thUSD (building toward certification, not yet certified)

    • Unlocks broader asset exposure for institutional strategies

    • Currently in testnet development

  • wsthUSD (Wrapped Staked thUSD): Yield-bearing version of wthUSD

    • Enhanced yield potential from global market vaults

    • Institutional-focused strategies without compliance constraints

    • Planned for Q2 2025 launch

Risk-On Vault Expansion - Partially Completed

  • Tharwa Bonds successfully launched - Fixed-term vaults (90, 180, 360 days) with live yields

    • 90-day bonds: ~3.94% APY

    • 180-day bonds: ~5.91% APY

    • 360-day bonds: ~8.00% APY

    • ERC-1155 NFT structure with tradeable maturity tokens

  • Additional vault strategies in development including longer-duration sukuk and specialized tranches

  • Vault segmentation maintained between faith-aligned and global market strategies

thUSD Liquidity Programs

  • LP incentives are introduced for select thUSD pairs on Ethereum and other target chains

  • DEX liquidity is deepened with protocol-owned support and strategic market maker engagement

  • OTC desk architecture is further developed to support high-volume mint/redeem flows with minimal slippage

This lays the groundwork for thUSD becoming a widely accepted unit of account, not just a mint-and-hold token.

sTRWA Staking Activation

  • TRWA stakers can lock their tokens to receive sTRWA

  • sTRWA will be used for governance voting, future yield share, and vault access rights

  • Alignment is rewarded: longer lock = stronger say

Strategic Goals of Phase 2

This is the moment where yield meets structure. The goal isn't just to offer returns but to offer sustainable, risk-adjusted returns that can survive outside of a bull market.

It's also the phase that pushes liquidity from isolated pools into a broader system of integrations and on-chain activity. With sthUSD and vaults functioning as intended, thUSD becomes more than a placeholder and transforms into an income-generating asset with purpose.
