About Kaia

Kaia, the L1 blockchain formed by the merger of Klaytn and Finschia, launched its v1.0.0 testnet 'Kairos' in early 2024, marking the first step of the integrated network. The mainnet went live in August 2024, delivering 1-second block times and near-zero fees, establishing itself as Asia's fastest EVM-compatible chain.

In Q4 2024, the Kaia Foundation announced 'Galactica', a real-world asset (RWA) tokenization project with an Indonesian shipping company, extending blockchain utility to physical assets. The official explorer Kaiascan also launched, enhancing network transparency.

A major milestone came in 2025 when Busan Bank completed a pilot for Korean won stablecoin infrastructure on Kaia Chain, positioning Kaia as a regulated settlement layer for fiat-pegged digital currency in South Korea. This aligns with Kaia's broader strategy to drive KRW stablecoin adoption.

Technically, Kaia v2.1.0 introduced MEV Auction mechanisms and multiple optimizations, improving network efficiency and validator economics. The network also became an official member of the Japan Blockchain Association, strengthening its institutional footprint across Asia.

These developments—from the merger testnet to mainnet launch, RWA initiatives, stablecoin pilots, and technical upgrades—form the backbone of Kaia's long-term vision as the gateway to Web3 for Asian markets.
