Supra, a Layer-1 (L1) blockchain, is launching its DeFi Revolution campaign to empower builders and users in decentralized finance (DeFi), according to the most recent reports shared with Finbold on Thursday, February 20.
With the campaign, Supra promises more MultiVM support, more advanced in-protocol oracles, native on-chain randomness, cross-chain communication, and additional automation capabilities.
These advancements — auto-liquidations, automated arbitrage, and network-wide automation — aren’t incremental improvements. They’re redefining DeFi in an entirely new way.
This is the foundation of The DeFi Revolution, and it belongs to all of you.https://t.co/8W0Yg4sPSJ

Supra’s automation framework
The integration enables auto-arbitrage, auto-liquidations, and Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) protection at the chain level, which makes it impossible for external liquidators, arbitrageurs, and MEV exploiters to extract value from the ecosystem.
Joshua Tobkin, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Co-Founder of Supra, summarized the primary goal of the initiative:
“This so-called ‘DeFi’ landscape has deep flaws—but with Supra’s fully integrated stack, we’re giving builders the tools to take back control, increase execution quality, and create a DeFi ecosystem that works for them.”
With auto-arbitrage functionalities, trades are executed at the protocol level, which means tighter spreads, better prices, and profits that remain within the ecosystem.
On the other hand, auto-liquidations enable zero-block delay liquidations to prevent cascading failures and ensure protocol solvency.
Meanwhile, MEV resistance randomizes transaction ordering using cryptographic threshold signatures to mitigate cybersecurity threats such as front-running and sandwich attacks.
As a result, Supra’s automation framework can focus on facilitating DeFi transactions first and foremost.
A new revenue model on Supra
Beyond more efficient transactions, the innovations discussed above are also expected to contribute to an entirely new revenue model.
Namely, all value generated by automated processes on the network will be dedicated to improving two core areas on Supra.
First, a revenue-sharing model will distribute earnings across decentralized apps (dApps), node operators, and the treasury.
Second, a decentralized network treasury fully managed by the community itself will ensure sustainable growth and promote constant reinvestment in the ecosystem.
According to Tobkin, the new automated execution systems will thus work on ensuring “fairer transactions, better liquidity, and stronger DeFi incentives.”
