Althea

The interchain station.

About

Althea is a community-built, permissionless, multi-platform DeFi service app for the Cosmos ecosystem.

Althea is named by prepending the prefix "al" (meaning high/tall/grand) to the name Thea, the Greek goddess of light, brilliance and intrinsic value.

As such, Althea offers wallet services such as IBC transfers, delegation to validators, governance voting, etc. Althea also plans to offer services such as token swapping and liquidity pooling, as well as social features such as chain, token and validator profiles.

The Althea app currently supports the following builds, all generated from the same Flutter/Dart codebase for maximal reuse of logic and responsive widgets:

• Web App (works on all modern browsers, e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, Brave, etc.)
• Chrome Extension (works on Chrome and web browsers with Chrome extension support)
• Android Mobile App (works on Android mobile devices, e.g. Pixel, Galaxy Tab, etc.)
• iOS Mobile App (works on iOS mobile devices, e.g. iPhone, iPad, etc.)

All builds are intended to be as adaptive and responsive as possible, e.g. to devices, OSs, screen sizes, orientations, etc.
