A quick recap
Thena was the first Frontend to launch on SYMMIO. With a long-standing relationship between the two teams, Thena was an early adopter, believing in SYMMIO’s approach to intent-based derivatives. In September 2023, Thena launched ALPHA on BNB chain. This was the beginning of a new era, the first public release of a SYMM-powered frontend, giving users a glimpse into the future of scalable, on-chain derivatives. ALPHA launched with over 150 assets with up to 60x leverage, a memorable day for both SYMMIO and Thena, but this was just the beginning.
Thena has been growing from strength to strength as a DEX. To date, nearly $10B in volume has passed through their platform, with a TVL nearing $40M and generating over $18M in total revenue. They’ve positioned themselves as one of the top DEXs on BNB, generating value for $THE holders and constantly innovating. Starting as a spot-only DEX, Thena is now investing heavily in its futures offerings and beyond and we’re excited to see what the future holds for this committed team of builders.
Building partnerships for the future
Thena has been strategic in aligning and cementing partnerships with key industry players. One that stands out is their connection with Orbs, implementing their innovative tech, most notably their Liquidity Hub, which supercharges Thena’s spot-trading DEX. Orbs also invested $600k into Thena, solidifying their commitment to building for the future and collaborating with forward-thinking teams.
In February of this year, a collaboration with IntentX was announced, utilizing their Serviced Frontend offering to take ALPHA to new heights.
With SYMMIO as the infrastructure and settlement layer, and IntentX adding significant UX, tooling, and feature updates, Orbs rounds off the list of core partners, providing their solver network along with continued tech innovation.
ALPHA and Beyond
This latest major upgrade is not where the innovation ends. Thena has got a lot more coming down the pipeline soon.
ARENA
ARENA is a social hub designed for users and partners to create fully customizable trading competitions that can be run on both spot and perps. It will also allow protocols to run activities around specific tokens or simply promote community engagement.
The platform will be permissionless, with protocols able to tweak competitions to their liking and leverage ARENA for focused community activities.
opBNB
Thena deployed its spot offerings on opBNB in December of 2023. ALPHA will follow suit, with plans to launch on this high-performance layer-2 very soon. opBNB is built for high capacity and low-cost transactions, the perfect environment for scaling an on-chain derivatives trading platform. ALPHA’s opBNB launch will also include new platform features and upgrades. We’re looking forward to expanding the SYMMIO ecosystem to opBNB with Thena very soon.
