Katal: A standard framework for finance

Abstract

Katal is a new blockchain that provides a standard way to build and deploy decentralized financial applications. It brings together all the components necessary for the backend of a financial application, namely: a high-performance consensus, an authenticated data feed system, a standard for financial contracts and connectivity to the rest of the blockchain ecosystem. Katal enables and simplifies the creation of financial services that are non-custodial, trustless, fast, convenient and interoperable.
