 ## Overview
 
-[Anoma](https://anoma.network/) is a sovereign, proof-of-stake blockchain protocol that enables private, asset-agnostic cash and private bartering among any number of parties. To learn more about Anoma's vision, take a look at the [Anoma Vision Paper](https://anoma.net/vision-paper.pdf) or [Anoma's Whitepaper](https://anoma.net/whitepaper.pdf).
-
-This is an implementation of the Anoma protocol in Rust.
+Namada is a sovereign proof-of-stake blockchain, using Tendermint BFT
+consensus, that enables multi-asset private transfers for any native
+or non-native asset using a multi-asset shielded pool derived from
+the Sapling circuit. Namada features full IBC protocol support,
+a natively integrated Ethereum bridge, a modern proof-of-stake
+system with automatic reward compounding and cubic slashing, and a
+stake-weighted governance signalling mechanism. Users of shielded
+transfers are rewarded for their contributions to the privacy set in
+the form of native protocol tokens. A multi-asset shielded transfer
+wallet is provided in order to facilitate safe and private user
+interaction with the protocol.
