Terra

Terra

Introduction

Terra was founded in 2018 by Daniel Shin and Do Kwon. It has its headquarter in Seoul, South Korea. A podcast by one of its co-founder and CEO, Do Kwon, explains why Terra is a complete ecosystem for the future of finance.
Terra is a price-stable cryptocurrency designed for mass adoption. It builds financial infrastructure for the next generation of decentralized applications. It is a public blockchain protocol deploying a suite of algorithmic decentralized stablecoins which underpin a thriving ecosystem that brings DeFi to the masses.
Terra is backed by Luna, a decentralized asset that derives its value from transaction fees collected on the Terra network. Much like the moon stabilizes the earth’s rotation, Luna is Terra's eternal guardian of stability.

Mission

Spend, Save, and Stake Like Never Before

Why Terra?

The Terra blockchain is unique because it is able to host a multitude of algorithmic stable coins on its network.
The Terra protocol is the leading decentralized and open-source public blockchain protocol for algorithmic stablecoins. Using a combination of open market arbitrage  incentives and decentralized Oracle voting, the Terra protocol creates stablecoins that consistently track the price of any fiat currency.
