Kaia's mainnet, launched on August 29, integrates with LINE to offer fast transactions and low fees, targeting 250M Asian users.
The Kaika Wave program supports LINE Mini DApps, providing developers with $1.2M in grants and resources to enhance user experience.
Kaia's merger with Finschia and Klaytn combines strengths from Japan and South Korea, boosting its blockchain presence in Asia.
Kaia, a new layer-1 blockchain, has officially launched its mainnet as of August 29. The blockchain, developed by the Kaia DLT Foundation, promises impressive capabilities with processing speeds of around one second and very low gas fees. This release is a step for blockchain technology, especially with its integration into LINE, a popular messaging platform in Asia.

The mainnet launch introduces Kaika Wave, a developer program designed to create "mini DApps" for LINE. These mini DApps will leverage Kaia's low transaction latency and innovative features, offering seamless integration within the LINE messenger. This move positions Kaia as a key player in the blockchain, especially in Asian markets where LINE and Kakaotalk have strong user bases.
Kaia emerged from the merger of two blockchains: Japan's Finschia and South Korea's Klaytn. This strategic consolidation brings together the strengths of both networks, ensuring a robust launch with a broad user base.
LINE and Kakao together boast over 250 million users across South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, and Indonesia. Consequently, Kaia benefits from an established market ready to explore its blockchain capabilities.
Comparing Kaia's Launch to Industry Innovations
The Kaia mainnet launch comes at a time when similar innovations are being tested in the industry. For example, Telegram's Mini Apps feature on The Open Network (TON) has faced challenges, including outages attributed to network overloads. Kaia's low latency and efficient fee structure position it as a promising alternative to current blockchain platforms.
Moreover, the NEXT WEB SDK package will enable developers to build LINE Mini DApps, enhancing user experiences within the messenger. This package includes the Kaia Wallet SDK and LINE LIFF API, which will facilitate the creation of integrated applications. In addition to technical support, the Kaia Wave program offers up to $1.2 million in marketing, technology, and business support, further incentivizing developer participation.
Kaia's merger also highlights the potential for adoption from existing platforms. Klaytn's established use in South Korea and Finschia’s integration into digital commerce platforms like DOSI ensure that Kaia will launch with a strong foundation. The foundation's leaders, including Dr. Sam Seo and Youngsu Ko, emphasize the transformative potential of Kaia for Web3 adoption in Asia and beyond.
