Sushi Expands to Kadena, Unlocking New Opportunities for PoW-Based DeFi
Sushi is now live on Kadena, giving traders and liquidity providers a fresh place to swap, stake, and experiment. The integration lets Sushi users access v2 pools on Kadena directly through Sushi’s familiar interface, swaps, LP positions, rewards and all the usual tools are available on a new Layer 1 built around proof-of-work.
Kadena isn’t another copy of the chains we’ve seen before. Its Chainweb design braids multiple parallel PoW chains together so the network can scale without giving up the security model PoW is known for. That architecture, together with newly added EVM compatibility, means teams can deploy Solidity contracts and take advantage of parallel execution and low gas costs without reaching for Layer 2s or switching to validator-based security. Kadena also ships its own Pact smart contract language, human-readable and pitched as easier to audit. and its creators stress energy efficiency as Chainweb scales.
A New Era for Secure and Scalable DeFi Trading
This summer, Kadena pushed the next chapter in that plan with a Chainweb EVM testnet that drew more than 50 projects and a $50 million grant fund to spur development. For DeFi builders and institutions looking for higher throughput without giving up PoW security, that combination is an appealing experiment.
For Sushi users, the change is practical: you can swap on Sushi’s v2 AMM on Kadena and provide liquidity to earn rewards, all through tools you already know. It’s a straightforward way to move capital into an environment that claims low fees and high throughput while keeping to a PoW security model.
The move matters because it stretches what many people assume about PoW blockchains. If Kadena delivers on its promises, sustained developer activity, real liquidity and the cost/security trade-offs it advertises, this could be an important example of DeFi running on an alternative L1 architecture. For now, Sushi’s presence simply gives traders and LPs one more place to deploy capital and see how a braided PoW approach handles the demands of modern decentralized finance.
