Klaytn is a global public blockchain platform developed by Ground X, the blockchain subsidiary of the leading South Korean mobile platform, Kakao.

Dedicated to validating the value and utility of blockchain technology by offering a blockchain service for mass adoption, Klaytn focuses on providing an optimized platform for service providers to develop and operate DApps

Klaytn seeks to address inconvenient UX (user experience) of existing blockchain platforms by allowing end-users to experience blockchain technology in the most seamless way. The streamlined Klaytn UX eliminates the traditional inconveniences such as wallets, private keys, and cryptographic addresses thereby lowering the barriers to blockchain technology for end-users.

Klaytn is also distinctive for its enhanced speed and for the performance of its dApps. The block interval has been shortened to less than 1 second with up to 1,500 TPS. For a stable network operation, the nodes are also separated into specific layers with different functions including consensus and network audit.

With this, Airbloc will be mounting its main business logic on top of Klaytn blockchain platform. Some of Airbloc’s services that will be processed on top of Klaytn include, but are not limited to: Second Party Data Transport Layer, Airbloc Reward System (Contribution Graph), DAuth, and Data Registry Process. More details of these features can be found in our latest Technical Whitepaper:
