Over ons Kaia
Kaia (KAIA) is the native digital asset of the Kaia blockchain, created from the strategic merger of Klaytn and Finschia. Initially developed by Kakao and LINE respectively, Klaytn and Finschia joined forces to form Kaia, a unified blockchain platform that extends Web3 access to a vast user base across Asia, including existing communities in South Korea and Japan. Designed as a scalable, accessible, and EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain, Kaia enables smooth integration of decentralised applications (DApps) and supports interoperability between Web3 and traditional Web2 frameworks.
Kaia aims to make blockchain technology user-friendly and widely accessible. Its infrastructure integrates tools and services from both of its predecessor chains to promote DApp innovation and user engagement. Through features such as a messenger-integrated wallet and compatibility with Ethereum, Kaia supports a wide range of users from newcomers to experienced Web3 participants, providing resources for developers to build and scale projects within an extensive, active ecosystem.
Kaia's utility token, KAIA, plays a core role in powering the Kaia blockchain ecosystem. It is used for:
Transaction Fees and Payments: KAIA is used to pay transaction fees, staking fees, and network costs on the Kaia blockchain. By staking KAIA, users and validators contribute to network security and receive incentives for their participation.
Network Governance and Voting: As part of Kaia’s decentralised governance, KAIA holders can vote on proposals, changes, and upgrades within the network. Voting power is proportional to the amount of KAIA staked, although caps are in place to prevent centralisation of decision-making. On-chain governance also allows KAIA holders to directly influence network policies and protocols.
Incentives and Ecosystem Rewards: Kaia uses a multi-layered burn model and elastic token issuance to maintain value stability and incentivise network participants. The Kaia Ecosystem Fund (KEF) and Kaia Infrastructure Fund (KIF) support development projects, community incentives, and liquidity grants to strengthen the blockchain ecosystem. This mechanism is designed to support sustainable growth and an expanding user base through staking, development rewards, and delegated voting.
