Haust Price

Haust Network (HAUST) is a cryptocurrency launched in 2025. It functions as the native asset of a zkEVM Layer 2 blockchain engineered explicitly for decentralized finance applications.

The network deploys Polygon’s Chain Development Kit to spin up a fully compatible Ethereum scaling environment, directly integrating AggLayer, a specialized data availability framework, and native account abstraction from genesis. Haust Lending and Haust DEX operate as core primitives, while the Haustoria mechanism—developed by Haust Labs—converts protocol revenues into yield that streams continuously to Haust Wallet users. This architecture compresses the cost and complexity of on-chain lending, swapping, and yield farming.

The protocol operates on its own blockchain as a zero-knowledge rollup, executing transactions off-chain while posting validity proofs to Ethereum for settlement. States are confirmed in batches, compressing hundreds of swaps into a single succinct proof.

Full EVM equivalence means any smart contract deployed on Ethereum can operate on Haust without modification. The native HAUST token exists as an ERC-20 contract on Ethereum, bridging into the Layer 2 environment where it fuels network operations. Account abstraction is wired into the protocol’s fabric, allowing transaction fees to be paid in any asset and enabling wallet recovery schemes that sidestep seed phrases.

The project was launched in 2025, emerging from the development efforts of Haust Labs, which engineered the network’s distinguishing yield apparatus, Haustoria. The HAUST token entered public markets on October 27, 2025, as part of the initial deployment phase.

The overarching ambition is to collapse fragmented DeFi liquidity into a single high-throughput chain where every deposited asset earns a native return automatically. By baking yield into the base layer, Haust Network seeks to eliminate the need for users to actively manage contracts across multiple protocols.

HAUST functions as the native gas token, required to execute any state change on the Layer 2 chain. It can be locked in Haustoria smart contracts to generate native yield, a process that redirects protocol fees back to depositors. As the base trading pair across Haust DEX, it also acts as a settlement intermediary during every swap.

Yield-seeking participants stake HAUST within the Haust Wallet interface, where Haustoria auto-compounds returns from lending pools and liquidity venues without manual intervention. Market makers supply both sides of a pair on Haust DEX to capture swap fees and HAUST-based rewards, creating systematic incentives to keep capital active. Traders can settle network fees in other tokens, but paying with HAUST triggers a discount, a utility embedded in the fee abstraction logic.

Haust Network has a maximum supply of 10,000,000,000 tokens. Currently, 0 are in circulation. With a market capitalization of $0, Haust Network ranks #7,972 among all cryptocurrencies.
