Kaia (KAIA)

Kaia (KAIA) is a public blockchain designed primarily for the Asian market, established in 2024 through the merger of two prominent projects: Klaytn and Finschia. The network functions as a shared digital record book maintained across thousands of computers, ensuring that no single entity can alter the data. The KAIA token serves as the native utility asset, facilitating transaction fees and supporting network security. This infrastructure was created to integrate blockchain technology into the daily lives of users through existing applications.

• Historical Context: Klaytn launched in 2019 under Ground X, while Finschia originated from LINE's blockchain division.
