Theta adds wrapped THETA for DeFi

The hard fork to the new version completed after all community validators upgraded their nodes, with v3.4.0 adding support for wrapped THETA (wTHETA) for the Theta web wallet.

The TNT20 token &- an ERC-20 like token standard on Theta, can now be used on Metamask as well as across multiple smart contracts.

The upgrade has also added support Theta-based decentralised finance (DeFi) and for staking THETA or Theta Fuel to Elite Edge Nodes and Guardian Nodes, to provide for pooled staking and increase available staking products, Theta Labs announced.
