# Torch Market

Torch Market is a DeFi protocol combining swap, lending, liquidation, and yield features in a single on-chain protocol designed for both human and AI agent users. The protocol is formally verified (48/48 Kani proof harnesses) and has been audited. It launched on Solana devnet/mainnet with an open-source SDK (torchsdk on npm with ~4K downloads via Clawhub agent skill). The protocol is designed to be non-extractive with economic flows returning to the community, and features permissionless migration to DEX funded by token treasuries.
