How Does THORCHAIN Work? DEFI Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 май 2021
- So what is Thorchain all about? How does it work? And how does it make it possible to swap between native assets across different blockchains? You’ll find answers to these questions in this video.
With billions of dollars in trading volume, decentralised exchanges have been gaining more and more traction. It’s not uncommon to see over $1B in daily trading volume on Uniswap alone.
Although protocols like Uniswap, Sushiswap or Curve are great when it comes to exchanging assets within the Ethereum ecosystem, they don’t support swaps between different blockchains.
To accommodate this problem, a common approach is to represent external assets in the form of wrapped or synthetic tokens on Ethereum. The most popular asset on other blockchains outside of Ethereum is of course Bitcoin. There are multiple ways of representing Bitcoin on Ethereum that allows it to be traded on decentralized exchanges. Wrapped Bitcoin, renBTC, sBTC to name a few.
Even though most of these approaches work fine, they usually make certain tradeoffs when it comes to either the custody or the security of the assets. If you want to learn more about it check out this video here.
What if there was a way of swapping native assets instead? For example, making a trade between Bitcoin on the Bitcoin blockchain and Ether on the Ethereum blockchain.
And this is exactly where Thorchain comes into play.

You will explain pulsechain.com ?
Finematics activates the subtitles so it lets me see it in Spanish
When Terra Luna video you promised weeks ago?
Hello buddy, nice review
heard about RAPTOR? Need to know your thoughts.
Next video please... love all your videos... this is the best place to get info on the crypto system.
This is a better explanation than some of the Thorchain interviews 😂 u should just sell these videos to the project teams
hah thanks!
@@Finematics please make a video on Solana Ecosystem
@@Finematics Please could you talk about Ares Protocol? A decentralized oracle built with Substrate that will be a parachain in Polkadot and Kusama, is the only oracle in the Rococo tesnets and has the best technology to be the Polkadot chainlink.
By the way, I love your content, excellent video
Yeah just hire someone else to read this...
Seriously
What an unbelievable amount of research you must have done. It's a wonder for anyone to be able to produce such high quality informative content!
Thank you! :)
@@Finematics Finematics activates the subtitles so it lets me see it in Spanish please
And with high quality animation too!
I had the same thought. Just blown away by it.
Excellent video. Thank so much
My 60 year old brain only had to watch this twice. Thank you. Great work!
the more i look into thorchain, the more i see it being a 100x crypto
I think 50 to 90 usd is very realistic at some point once it's implemented
@@dipeshsahota4901 didnt aged well huh?
Thorchain definitely has its place in the top 10.
Top 5 even
top 50 ... there are better and more useful projects
more useful?? name 3
Excellent video as always. So much info packed into 20mins, you Sir have mastered the art. Looking forward to next episode. Cheers!
Thank you Sir! :)
Detailed, yet understandable. Answered a few questions I had about the way Thorchain works. Thorchain is going to be a monster, it's so much better that the competition. Thanks Finematics, for a job well-done, and yes....I smashed the Like button and rang the bell!
thanks! :)
A monster that worths almost $0
Thank you for the work you put in, it really helps people. I am sure you are in no shortage of ideas for videos, but something that I might find useful is to understand what sort of tools, tactics and websites you use to research a given product. I would really appreciate that. You are one of the few youtubers that actually provides in-depth analysis.
You're a brilliant learner and a brilliant teacher ! A double edge sword !
Nicely done. I think it deserves a part 2 to share a little more detail but excited for THORchain and RUNE nonetheless.
Would be most interested in a video explaining what are the biggest missing pieces in DeFi, explaining what the use cases would be, and them explaining who/what organization is trying to solve it.
In this case it was briefly mentioned that THORchain fills a big missing piece in DeFi because it solves the problem of not having native cross chain transactions. So having you explain what those other big missing pieces are would be interesting too
A big one is that it enables native asset holders to generate yield in a non-custodial way. This is appealing to to those long term HODLer's who are sitting on dormant funds to put them to work without giving up key ownership and without KYC etc. Then there is the privacy coin integration side of things which make it all so appealing again. Thorchain is one of the most if not the most important crypto development of late. Very exciting stuff.
@@morgangrice6350 absolutely the most important one for the time being.
@@morgangrice6350 but thorchain doesn’t offer lending products yet ?
@@tmtcapital7130it has now 😅
This is an amazing series. Thank you for the introduction.
Great one as always bro!
Thanks so much man! love your vids
You're welcome. Thanks for watching! :)
GIGA BULLISH!!!! thx cinematic
Been waiting two weeks for a new video. Thanks for this. Love all your videos. I now feel a lot smarter now. ....more input johnny 5 is alive...cant wait for the next one. 😃
Such a clear, precise breakdown. Thank you!
Love your content bro, seriously!
Learned about thorchain thanks to your video, I have to read the papers but from the video this seems as an incredible project I will probably like to invest in. Thanks for the quality content!
Best explanation!!! Love your vids
thank you! 💛
So glad you did this video!! Awesome job!
thanks!
Masterpiece! Very educational and objective! 👏👏👏 Thank you!!!
thanks!
Amazing content. I agree with other comments suggesting the Thorchain team should just license this video 😃. It would be interesting to hear your take on how Thorchain compares to other cross-chain protocols. I'm thinking about Dfyn in particular, but maybe there's others as well.
This channel is amazing. Have been a subscriber since 50K subs and that wasn't even that long ago.
Was waiting for that video :)
This was extremely informative.
You are one of the first sources I look to for crypto information. Thanks for the good video as always!
I'm back in the lecture hall! But LOVING IT!
Very interesting and super informative, thank you!
Amazing content!!! I will forever be a follower!! Thank you!!
Awesome! Thank you!
I like the depth of the video at the same time if one wants only high level understanding that's also achieved by this video.
This man is superb, Thanks for thorchain explanation.
Always learn something new when I come here!!
great to hear!
Great Video as always.
great video!!
The BEST on RUclips.
Simple
Much appreciated for the work you put in 🤗
thank you!
Better than Netflix Prime
hah thanks!
Most clearly explanation ever. Thank for your research and video. I save my time for discover all these projects. I'm you patreon 😉
Awesome, thank you!
Love you videos finematics! Instantly liked and looking forward to more. I want to know more about Defichain, cosmos, sol, kusama, Ada, Theta, and anything you think is under the radar
Awesome! More to come :)
Nice!
Thanks!
Great content man keep it up!!
thanks!
Mate love your stuff! Double check 10:40 when you say 5000 nodes and write 50,000
Good catch! Should be 50,000
Down day, your content made it better. Some of us are here for the tech and the gains.
thanks!
Awesome explanation. Loved it. Could you also make a video on Injective Protocol?
Excellent informative video.
1. I wonder how the Thorchain team can remain anonymous if they started from a Binance hackathon?
2. It could be handy if people move massively out of a blockchain. I hope there is a stability mechanism.
Fantastic explanation
thanks!
Thank you so much for your great work!
Thanks for watching! :)
Great video. Would love to see you explore the Terra ecosystem, along with its suite of stablecoins and its Luna token.
Great video
Thanks!
thanks again : )
Great video as usual. Cool that crosschain swaps are somehow possible, but it seems too complicated long-term. It will be much more efficient to trade and integrate everything into protocols on EVM compatible chains or layers.
Maybe you find it too complicated to understand, but the protocol works just like uniswap.. You swap one token for the other, that’s it
Thorchain is a top 10 for sure.
You are a good teacher🙂
thanks!
Thank you for the great video! Can you do one on alternative DLT like Hedera Hashgraph?
Really great illustrations and very informative :)
I'm curious on how you create the drawings, what tools are you using for this ?
Doodley is cool
The best crypto youtuber for explanation.
Thanks Finematics!
thanks!
Thank you for a great video. i think the only thing missing here is how the $rune price simulator based on the TVL
The amazing thing about this channel is that a lot of this information you cannot find anywhere else unless you do some serious digging
I like video, explains it well and it's functions too.
I tried use thorchain but as yet don't know how. After this video I will look it over again. Thank you.
Q: on the usability of BTC Vs Eth, defi sector... Is it not likely that BTC market dominance should go down below 30%. Gold as BTC is compared to is relatively small in compare to the whole financial market. No?
Thanks for the hard work and sharing this with us! How would this compare to other cross-bridging technologies? For example, Stargate Finance that is built on top of LayerZero? If you could do a similar type of video explaining Stargate Finance and another video of analysing the pros and cons between different cross-bridging technologies would really be great! I think 2022 could be the year of the cross-bridge and multibridge wars! (besides the stablecoin wars)
Love your content, could you look into Swingby? Seems a very advanced bridge solution similar to this.
Can you explain TSS in more detail, please? How does it differ from MPC?
Thorchain is the future of money markets. Massive potential and in accumulating slowly
Love your explanations. It gives us a better understanding of blockchain industry. Can you please breakdown the difference between APY and APR? Thanks.
thanks! APY includes compounding and APR doesn't
Love your videos. Can you cover DFYN?
that some deep research
Ive learned more on this channel about crypto than anywhere else
great to hear!
Will the 1M Rune bonding requirement still hold when Thor goes -> main net?
Also do you think it’s possible Uniswap or other primarily ERC-20 platforms develop the ability for cross chain swaps in the near future?
Finally I found a guy who really does research and speak.Not like 3 coins 3 millions😅
Thank you Finematics, really love your clear explanations 👏👏👏
Thorchain is a future of crypto world ⚡⚡⚡
Excelent video!! Congrats! Do you think it is safe to provide liquidity on the thorchain with a big amount you can not afford to lose?
@@user-vc1uy1wt3c SCAM
Love these videos. What software do you use for the animation?
Videoscribe
This channel is awesome!
Thanks!!
truly huuuuge.... viva the revolution
Thanks
really
Next video about HBAR please how does it work? I don’t want to have comparison about that and blockchain because it’s always subjective. Maybe in the different video. Cheers bro
Any chance of an explainer on the Terra ecosystem?
Satoshi? Is that you behind Finematics?
Best crypto channel ever
Thanks!
Could you do a video on TEAL and Algorand? Binge-worthy videos!
If you could explain the Litentry cross chain aggregated identity project that’d be awesome
Could you please make a video on how to use Harmony One ?
You need to cover Chainflip and do a comparison between Thorchain and Chainflip.
Can you make a video on Defichain? They make Defi on Bitcoin but I don’t quite understand it
Maybe, but there is a lot of other topics with higher priority at the moment
still the beginnings of something huge.
Please do a video on how Harmony ONE scaling works, please 🙏
Can you make a video how Hydra Chain works? Thank you in advance.
Please make a video on Solana Ecosystem
u should call the channel. Harvard Crypto.. great stuff
hah thanks!
have you produced video on Internet Computer?
If not please.
Thanks.
@@user-vc1uy1wt3c OK Sir.
$RUNE to $1,000
XHV is coming soon to Thorchain as well, their xUSD private stablecoin is gonna be a game changer.

Can you plz do a video on ATOM or LUNA?
Could you do a video on RAMP coin ;)
Hi Finematics, I can't seem to find the official Discord server for ThorChain - could you please link it?
