what's Nostra?
Nostra is a decentralized finance (DeFi) super app built on the Starknet blockchain, enabling users to lend, borrow, swap, and bridge cryptocurrencies in a non-custodial manner. It provides a unified interface for managing assets like ETH, USDC, and DAI, leveraging Starknet's scalability for low-cost, efficient transactions. Key features include Nostra Lend for peer-to-pool lending and borrowing with tokenized positions, Nostra Swap for decentralized exchanges focused on stablecoins, and upcoming bridging capabilities to onboard assets seamlessly. The platform introduces UNO, Starknet's native USD stablecoin, and supports liquid staking through tokens like stSTRK, allowing users to earn rewards while maintaining liquidity for DeFi activities. Governed by the Nostra DAO via its NSTR token, it emphasizes community-driven decisions, risk management with smart liquidations, and integration with the broader Starknet ecosystem for composable financial primitives.
