🧩 What is Huma Finance?
Huma is a “PayFi” DeFi protocol that aims to modernize global payments by merging on-chain liquidity with real-world financial receivables. It allows businesses to immediately receive stablecoin payments (e.g., USDT/USDC) by tokenizing invoices, while liquidity providers earn yield from transaction fees and HUMA token rewards .

⚙️ How It Works
• Dual access model:
• Institutional version (permissioned, KYC/KYB).
• Permissionless version (Huma 2.0) launched in April 2025, open to everyone—retail LPs included  .
• Liquidity providers fund pools with stablecoins. When businesses borrow, they get instant settlement; settlement is later reconciled using tokenized receivables  .
