What Is Kava (KAVA)?
Kava is a Layer-1 blockchain that combines the speed and interoperability of Cosmos with the developer power of Ethereum.
Kava was built from the ground up to optimize its resources for protocol growth, strengthened by its Cosmos EVM technology that enables maximum scalability, speed, security, and developer support.
Builders on Kava earn a share of Kava Rise's $750M developer incentive fund via the program's blockchain-based distribution method, designed to reward the top protocols every month based on usage.
Who Are the Founders of Kava?
Kava has always put security and decentralization first. Today, the Kava blockchain ecosystem is developed by over 100 application protocol teams (and counting), and is supported by over 100 infrastructure teams.
The Kava ecosystem is supported by multiple independent international Foundations which are responsible for allocating protocol-level funding to grantees with the purpose of supporting the health and continued development of decentralized networks and systems.
What Makes Kava Unique?
Seamless Interoperability:Â Kava provides seamless interoperability between Cosmos and the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) to enable developers to build in whichever environment they want without sacrificing access to users and assets.
Protocol Growth:Â The on-chain incentive program, Kava Rise, ensures that the best builders in the Ethereum and Cosmos ecosystems are properly rewarded for driving growth on Kava.
Optimized Scalability:Â Kavaâs architecture enables the free flow of users, assets, and projects between Kava and the industry's most prominent ecosystems at scale, all powered by the lightning-fast Tendermint Core consensus engine.
Cross-chain Interoperability:Â Kavaâs unique co-chain architecture enables seamless asset transfers and interactions between the Ethereum and Cosmos ecosystems, unlocking new opportunities and broadening access for developers and users alike.
