Kaia is proud to be recognized by top crypto VCs for our mission to drive Web3 mass adoption across Asia and beyond. Led by @blockchaincap and @1kxnetwork, these visionary backers saw massive potential in Kaia — a chain with real users, growing revenue and a path to scale. Their commitment strengthens Kaia’s global momentum, joined by the support of @GalaxyHQ, @TheSpartanGroup, @IDGCapital, @mirana, @snzholding, @comma3vc, @caladanxyz, @LingfengCapital, @waterdripfund, and @MVenturesLabs. The future of consumer crypto will be led by Kaia.

The tech is finally ready. While mechanism design and cryptoeconomics remain foundational, distribution is increasingly becoming the key differentiator—especially when reaching non-crypto native users. This is why I'm so excited that @blockchaincap is investing in @KaiaChain. Kaia has exclusive partnerships with some of Asia's leading super apps, including LINE, that ensures all their users' in-app crypto activities will route through Kaia. With >196M MAUs, LINE's enjoys deep reach across several of Asia’s most digitally advanced markets. Its new Mini @dapp_portal—though still in soft launch and accessible only via invite links—shows early signs of promise: - 7.2M unique users have accessed the portal - >75M accumulated registered users have tried out a LINE Mini Dapp - 30% paid user ratio and $300+ ARPPU in the top Mini Dapp With LINE planning to surface the Mini Dapp Portal directly on the main chat screen in the coming months, the value proposition for Kaia will only get stronger: an unparalleled distribution platform to a culturally primed user base. While the early traction is promising, it’s still early days for crypto adoption at scale in Asia. Long-term success will depend on expanding developer interest and maintaining user engagement. Nonetheless, we’re thrilled to support the team on their journey to bring crypto to the center of Asia’s digital economy.

Excited to be backing @KaiaChain in this round of funding. They're the official blockchain natively integrated by @LINEjp_official and @kakaoteam, the two biggest consumer messaging apps across Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Thailand - totalling over 200m MAUs. Since launching they've generated 38 million net new wallets, onboarded over 80+ miniapps averaging over 1m-1.5m+ daily active onchain addresses, which is over 8x higher than TON (100-150k). We believe Kaia is a dark horse in the race for mass adoption. Proud for @1kxnetwork to be a supporter.
