What is Kaia (KAIA)?
Kaia is an EVM Layer 1 public blockchain designed to bring Web3 to millions of users across Asia. It was created through the merger of the Klaytn and Finschia blockchains, originally developed by Kakao and LINE. Kaia integrates with Kakaotalk and LINE messengers, which together serve over 250 million users, offering them the ability to explore Web3 within the familiar experience of their messaging apps.
Through deep integration via the NEXT WEB SDK, builders can create mini dApps that launch within the LINE messenger, utilizing Kaia's 1-second block time, account abstraction and fee delegation features to provide a seamless end-to-end user experience. Additionally, Kaia dApps that utilize the NEXT WEB SDK can leverage LINE's various owned marketing channels to reach their userbase of hundreds of millions for rapid user acquisition. Kaia is an Ethereum-equivalent Layer 1 public blockchain that utilizes Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (pBFT), a highly-optimized version of Istanbul BFT to achieve 4,000 real-world TPS while delivering 1-second block time with immediate absolute finality. Kaia is governed and secured by the Governance Council, a body of leading Web3 and Web2 enterprises including 1inch, Hashkey, Animoca Brands, DWF Labs, Binance, Kakao, LINE NEXT, SEGA, SoftBank and more.
With the launch of the Kaia mainnet and the Kaia Wave program, the blockchain aims for new consumer-facing mini dApps to be built and launched using the NEXT WEB SDK.
