Haven is a community-led, grassroots project and as such is open for everyone to contribute to. The code is open-source and allows for anyone to build additional products on top of the codebase. We are a large and diverse community with many skills that have been utilized to help build out and strengthen the project and protocol so please reach out if you’d like to get involved in building a fairer and more inclusive financial future for all.
Haven Protocol was started by two anonymous developers in Feb 2018. Over the course of the next year it became clear that they were unable to complete the project and deliver a working product. At that time a group of the Haven community came together to finally fulfil the promise of what we believed to be one of the most important and potentially disruptive financial technologies in the space. In July 2020, the world’s first and only private stablecoin, xUSD was launched to Haven’s mainnet.
Haven can be used by anyone who wishes to hold and use their wealth privately and have access to a range of digital currencies and assets all within one network.
It can be used for:
Anyone who wants to store value outside of the traditional banking system without giving up their privacy and autonomy. Only you can access and use your wealth as you see fit.
With a range of asset classes live on mainnet including major fiat currencies, precious metals as well as a Bitcoin tracker Anyone using the network can convert between all supported assets within their own digital vault. No counterparty, no 3rd party permission required and no limit on liquidity within the vault. For the full suite of assets available see our xAsset Guide here
Haven can be used for anything that does not require instant settlement and where privacy is desired. Haven offers a low cost, fast and always-on option for anyone to use to trasnfer value globally. As part of this a WooCommerce plug-in for Haven offers a simple solution for any business to easily integrate Haven payments into their store.
