âïžWhat is #HumaFinance ? @Huma Finance đŁ
PayFi protocol: With the "PayFi" = Payment + Finance component, $HUMA 's processed payments (such as cross-border payments, trade finance, credit card payments, DePIN) can be converted into instant stablecoin transactions.
Working model: Businesses tokenize their invoiced receivables and deposit them into the protocol; they immediately receive the currency in USDC/USDT. Providers (liquidity providers) deposit funds into these pools and earn stablecoin interest and HUMA token rewards. When a user payment arrives, 50% of the cost is used to repurchase and burn #HUMA tokens (deflationary mechanism).
Token economy: Total supply is fixed at 10 billion HUMA tokens; initially, approximately 1.73 billion are in circulation (~17%).
Products:
Huma Institutional: KYC/KYB-compliant institutional payment solutions.
Huma2.0 (permissionless): Provides access to public pools, stakers, and LPs, with a majority participation rate.
To date, $3.8â$4.5 billion in transaction volume has been processed, and $2.3 billion in loans have been allocated. The project has also received investments from major backers such as Binance, Circle, the Solana Foundation, and Galaxy Digital.
đ€ Humaâs 2026 Roadmap
End of 2025 â Q3/Q4:
andâHUMA: Token holders participate in stronger governance through locked token voting.
Automatic compounding PST vaults: Automatic reinvestment of interest from staking.
Mobile PayFi SDK: Allows businesses to use PayFi on their own platforms with a mobile app overview.
Multi-chain LP routing: Liquidity routing across EVM-compatible Layer-2 networks
2026 Key Topics:
Permissionless merchant pools: Enables the opening of merchant pools that do not require approval.
Feather Marketplace (cross-chain): A multi-chain trading/payment marketplace.
DAO treasury grants and Treasury Assistant application: A community-supported treasury management and incentive system.
Regulatory Compliance: Aiming for financial licensing in markets such as the US, Singapore, Hong Kong, and the UAE.
Targeting $40 billion in transaction volume and $10 billion in real-world payments (via Huma Institutional)
đ Expectations & Assessment
Technology and Growth:
Multi-chain expansion encompassing Solana, Stellar, and EVM networks is planned. Advanced features for on-chain credit systems (credit identities, risk management) may also be added.
More businesses and protocols are expected to integrate PayFi; Payment rules in emerging markets and steps such as the merger of ARF are important.
Regulation & Market Dynamics:
Developments in stablecoin regulations, rules such as the FATF, SEC, and MiCA, could significantly impact Huma's operating style.
Macroeconomic factors: Interest rates and global payment costs could increase or decrease interest in Huma.
Potential Challenges:
Following the token lockup (starting in May 2026), there may be a risk of a large supply sell-off. The initial linear distribution of team and computer tokens will begin in May 2026, which could put downward pressure on the price.
Risks such as competition (TrueFi, Maple, other PayFi alternatives), technical security (smart contracts, liquidity), and business transition should be considered.
