what's Brahma?
Brahma is the orchestration layer for Internet Finance, enabling seamless movement of capital across onchain and offchain systems. It abstracts complexities in execution, security, and real-world integrations, allowing applications to leverage programmable finance without friction. Core to Brahma is its ability to connect DeFi yields and onchain logic to traditional payment rails, powering products that bridge digital assets with everyday spending. Key offerings include Brahma Cards, which convert onchain conditions into real-world payments, and dynamic soulbound NFTs like Brahma Imprint that evolve with users' onchain activities. Brahma also supports cross-chain accessibility through tools like its Console, facilitating bridging and management of funds across EVM-compatible networks. By integrating with protocols such as Hyperliquid and Felix, it enhances liquidity and utility for crypto holders. The protocol originated as a decentralized yield generation platform, simplifying access to cross-chain DeFi primitives through vaults like DegenVaults. Over time, it has expanded to focus on programmable capital, emphasizing agent-based automation and real-world outcomes for onchain assets.
Brahma processed $1B+ volume, following its acquisition by Polymarket.
