HashKey Group and Kaia, formerly known as Klaytn, have announced a strategic partnership aimed at enhancing Web3 adoption across Asia and beyond. This move follows Kaia’s recent merger with Finschia and the launch of their new mainnet.
The partnership will drive innovation in digital finance, content creation, and security. It aligns with the Kaia-Finschia merger, which was finalized earlier this year, combining their strengths to create one of Asia’s largest Web3 governance platforms.
This merger integrates the blockchain capabilities of Finschia, developed by Line Tech Plus, a subsidiary of the Japanese messaging giant Line.
Ben El-Baz, managing director of HashKey Global, emphasized that this collaboration is built on a shared vision of advancing the digital asset ecosystem.
He noted that major Asian tech players, like Kakao and Line, are increasingly investing in Web3, positioning Asian blockchain communities to take a leading role globally.
Coinciding with the partnership, Kaia launched its mainnet on August 29.
This new layer-1 blockchain, developed in collaboration with Kakao and Line, introduces Kaia Wave—a program for developers to build decentralized applications on the Line platform.
This collaboration follows HashKey’s recent partnership with Catizen, a Telegram Mini App, expanding its Web3 footprint and enhancing regulatory-compliant digital asset services for its users.
