SUPRA

#494

Supra is the first self-operating Layer-1 blockchain built to introduce AutoFi to crypto. They bring together native real-time oracle price feeds, system-level automation, built-in cross-chain messaging and high-speed smart contracts together onto one protocol. Rather than forcing developers to stitch together multiple services from external networks (each with its own delays, trust assumptions, and fee layers), Supra embeds all these primitives directly into its Layer-1 network, all powered by Supra’s Moonshot consensus engine. The result is sub-second data freshness and automatic zero-delay execution for any smart contract.

Blockchains until now have been passive ledgers, but with these elements working together on Supra it becomes a new kind of self-operating financial system, called AutoFi. This new system is capable of turning every eligible DeFi primitive (like liquidations, arbitrage, and more) into a built-in AutoFi service that can stop value from bleeding out as external MEV. When liquidations, arbitrage, lending and rebalancing become automated on-chain operations that act on a block-by-block basis, they can generate fair recurring revenue and feed it back into the network instead of letting it leak to outside keepers or bots.

In essence, Supra makes each block not just a ledger entry, but an opportunity for the protocol and its users to capture value.

Supra’s defining feature is its vertical integration of key oracle services as first-class protocol primitives. Rather than patching together on oracles, randomness, messaging and automation from external networks, all four run in parallel within the same consensus layer of the Supra Layer-1 as its smart contracts. This reduces end-to-end latency, simplifies security assumptions, and delivers a seamless developer experience.

Supra is taking their vertical integration even further with their system-level automation. They’re building a complete stack of core DeFi primitives (liquidations, arbitrage, lending and rebalancing) all powered by native automation to create a native AutoFi stack that makes Supra the first self-operating financial system.

Combine that with Supra’s out-of-the-box Multi-VM support—MoveVM live on mainnet, EVM live on testnet alpha, and Solana and CosmWasm coming soon—and you get a platform where existing smart contracts can be deployed unchanged and immediately tap into every native service. It’s a true one-stop shop for building powerful dApps without needing to wrestle with adapters, bridges or keeper networks.

Supra also serves as an oracle platform for over 90 other blockchains as well, providing real-time cross-chain data that is essential for various apps and industries within crypto, including gaming and decentralized finance (DeFi). Oracles are critical components in blockchain technology as they bridge the gap between on-chain and off-chain data, allowing smart contracts to interact with real-world information. This capability is particularly valuable for applications that require up-to-date data, such as financial services and gaming platforms, where real-time information can significantly impact user experience and decision-making.

Supra was co-founded by Joshua D. Tobkin (CEO) and Jon Jones (Chief Business Officer), who began their collaboration in early 2018 at SF Blockchain Week.

Joshua D. Tobkin, CEO and Co-Founder, is the lead architect of Supra and pioneered the novel blockchain network designs that give Supra its vertical integration edge. He has an extensive background in SaaS businesses with successful exits before becoming fully immersed in blockchain by 2017. His understanding of game theory and passion for internet connectivity shaped Supra's vision.

Jon Jones, Co-Founder and CBO, brings UC Berkeley education and extensive Web3 venture experience. He previously served as president of the Taiwan chapter of the Government Blockchain Association and is involved in web3 venture studio Unitychain.

Dr. Aniket Kate, Chief Research Officer, is the inventor of KZG (polynomial) commitments that underpin Ethereum's Layer-2 scaling and ZK-SNARKs. He brings over 15 years of applied cryptography research experience and is an Associate Professor at Purdue University. Dr. Kate left academia to join Supra full-time, leading research efforts in distributed systems and cryptographic protocols.

The diverse team spans over eight countries, including blockchain developers, academics, finance executives, and entrepreneurs. The core strength of Supra lies in its research team, consisting of 10+ PhDs spanning cryptography, blockchain, distributed systems, and more with deep experience and rich history of academic contributions to the space. They have published 15+ whitepapers for Supra’s own tech stack alone.

SUPRA is the native token of the Supra blockchain. It has a total supply of 100 billion tokens, with approximately 15 billion SUPRA currently in circulation.

The SUPRA token serves multiple purposes within the Supra ecosystem:

• Gas fees: SUPRA is used to pay for transaction fees and smart contract execution on the Supra network
• Staking: Validators must stake a given amount of SUPRA tokens to operate nodes and secure the network
• Governance: Tokens will play a role in how the community participates in on-chain voting for protocol upgrades and parameter changes in the future
• Oracle service fees: SUPRA will also be used by dApps across 90+ external blockchains to access Supra's oracle services
• AutoFi task fees: Used for automated DeFi operation task fees and priority execution auctions

Team and early contributor tokens are subject to vesting schedules, with founders' tokens locked for 24 months before vesting starts with gradual drips and the rest of the team’s tokens locked for six months before vesting starts with gradual drips. Early VC tokens cannot be staked at launch to prioritize community participation in network rewards.

Supra's cross-chain protocol is SupraNova, a bridgeless cross-chain interoperability protocol enabling direct, trustless Layer-1 to Layer-1 communication.

SupraNova eliminates the need for traditional bridge designs by recomputing external chain consensus natively on Supra Layer-1. When transactions occur on supported chains like Ethereum, cryptographic proofs are generated and verified directly on Supra, removing the need for intermediary bridge networks entirely.

This enhances security, speed, and scale that can be supported by the bridge as it avoids the need for additional bridge networks to be involved, which tend to generally need multiple consensus rounds needed of their own while being smaller than the L1 networks itself. SupraNova’s architecture simplifies cross-chain communication between L1s with direct L1-to-L1 verification.

Supra is a delegated Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchain network powered by its proprietary Moonshot consensus algorithm to secure the network from attacks and ensure Byzantine Fault Tolerance.

Supra's security relies on the Moonshot family of Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus protocols, which has clocked 500k TPS in tests across a globally distributed network of 300 nodes. This consensus is one of the few in blockchain that’s formally verified safety using Microsoft's IVy Verifier, which goes to prove its security against network forks even under infinite duration

Supra has native MultiVM support, offering compatibility with Move, EVM, Solana and CosmWasm virtual machines. That means your existing contracts, whether Solidity, Move or Rust, can be deployed unchanged. There’s no need for porting, wrapping or custom adapters.

Once deployed, your contracts instantly gain access to Supra’s built-in oracles, randomness, messaging and automation. You write your logic as usual, then simply call the native primitives to add price feeds, random inputs or automated triggers, no external infrastructure required.

AutoFi stands for Automated Finance—a set of DeFi primitives that live natively in the Supra Layer-1 blockchain. You define a condition on-chain (for example, “if Token X drops below $Y, liquidate position Z”), and Supra’s automation engine watches and acts. When that condition is met, the matching transaction is executed within the exact same block, eliminating any race or front-running window.

Users will be able to participate in AutoFi by registering tasks with a small daily fee or by bidding SUPRA tokens in real-time auctions for priority execution on high-value events. All fees and auction proceeds flow into the protocol treasury, creating a continuous revenue cycle. This makes DeFi far more predictable and trustless—your strategies run automatically, and the yields they generate strengthen the entire network.

Supra is positioning itself as the ideal infrastructure for AI Agents, providing a vertically integrated stack that acts as a real-time operating system for AI-powered finance.

The Supra stack gives AI Agents all the tools needed to create and run powerful AutoFi strategies fully onchain, autonomously, and securely. By combining high-performance smart contracts with native oracles, cross-chain messaging, and native automation, Supra enables AI agents to sense, decide, and act on-chain with unprecedented capabilities.

What really sets Supra apart is its AutoFi primitives. AI Agents can tap into Supra’s AutoFi capabilities to create automated financial strategies that the network executes deterministically within the same block conditions are met. This gives AI Agents an unmatched edge, only on Supra.

Looking ahead, Supra will roll out their advanced AutoFi primitive stack including automated lending at competitive rates, dynamic liquidity management based on market conditions, risk-management controls and more. An AI-augmented oracle layer is also in the works, planned to power next-gen strategy automation.

Cross-chain integrations will deepen across EVM, Move, Solana and Cosmos ecosystems, unifying liquidity and services under one protocol. Meanwhile, on-chain governance tools will empower SUPRA token holders to propose and vote on new primitives, revenue parameters and upgrades—keeping incentives aligned as the network scales.
