💠 $KARI

KARI is the native token of the Hikari protocol. It is designed to capture long-term value through a mechanism called Farming-as-a-Service.

Instead of relying on speculative trading or token emissions, KARI grows stronger through real yield generated by the protocol. When users stake KARI, they activate Hikari’s farming engine. The protocol then allocates unused AUSD from the treasury into external DeFi strategies across the Katana ecosystem.

The yield produced from these activities is funneled directly into KARI’s floor liquidity. This process increases the token’s minimum redeemable value over time. As more users participate and more capital is deployed, KARI becomes increasingly backed and more resilient.

KARI is not just a token for trading. It is a productive asset that grows in strength alongside the protocol.

🧩 Current Use Cases

🌾 Farming-as-a-Service

Staking KARI mints stKARI, giving users access to the protocol’s farming engine.

• Idle AUSD from the floor treasury is deployed into yield-generating strategies like lending and LP farming

• All yield is returned to the KARI floor treasury to increase its on-chain backing

• Only surplus liquidity is used, so the floor price guarantee always remains protected

🛡️ Strengthening the Floor

As staking participation and farming yield increase, the KARI floor becomes deeper. This process raises the token’s baseline value without any dilution or inflation.
