# Introduction Akropolis was founded in 2017 based on a vision of an alternative financial system, based on non-USD-denominated, real-world assets (RWA)-based stablecoins and DAOs performing the roles equivalent to those of the pension funds, community banks and credit unions of today. Since 2022, Akropolis has [transitioned](https://medium.com/akropolis/akropolis-kickoff-2022-c7427c7be302) to a DAO, and has been operated by the contributors, some of whom are long-standing community members. Its key highlights to date have been: * The first guarded launch in DeFi; * All-time high total value locked (TVL) of US$25mn; * Being part of the [IDEO Colab DeFi Incubator & Residency Programme. ](https://medium.com/ideo-colab/ideo-colab-launches-collaborative-defi-incubator-residency-program-a32ddd6e9f36) AkropolisDAO continues to be operated by its contributors. Our current products include: * **yVaults** - Streamlined and simplified access to select [Yearn](https://yearn.fi/) vaults to optimize yields. * **Liquity** **integration -** acting as a frontend provider for [Liquity](https://www.liquity.org/) troves and staking. We believe Akropolis is the one-stop solution for any investor seeking access to passive, efficient and sustainable yield generation. ## Roadmap You can find the Akropolis roadmap here: {% embed url="" %} ## Community channels [Telegram](https://t.me/akropolis_official) [Discord](https://discord.gg/Y58CGUW) [Twitter](https://twitter.com/akropolisio) [Medium](https://medium.com/akropolis) [Governance forum](https://gov.akropolis.io/) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
