Kaia Developers

We're publishing the Kaia Technical Roadmap today. Every upgrade and partnership ahead of us is building toward this picture. Onchain finance. Stablecoin orchestration. The infrastructure layer where institutional capital settles, not just experiments. Why now? Regulation is catching up, stablecoins have crossed from crypto-native experiment into mainstream payment flows, and institutions stopped asking whether to touch this. They're asking how. That's what Kaia is building toward, and pushing forward. The roadmap is a direction, not a final blueprint. It will shift as research lands and as the community pushes back. We're putting it in the open so builders can see where the road goes and help us refine it. The roadmap is built on three pillars: 1. Permissionless Kaia: Open up participation, tokenomics, and governance of the Kaia ecosystem so it stays fair, sustainable and accessible as it grows. 2. KaiaBFT: A performance and reliability upgrade of the network, designed to move stablecoins and tokenized assets at scale with settlement institutions can plan around. 3. Institutional-grade Infrastructure for Onchain Finance: The technical foundation that onchain financial services actually need when building on Kaia with real choices on sovereignty, compliance, privacy, and agentic optimization. All three point to the same goal: making Kaia the base infrastructure for onchain finance. Over the coming weeks, we'll deep-dive into each pillar. Each article will cover not just what we're building, but how the industry approaches these challenges today and the reasoning behind Kaia's approach. Follow along. Build on Kaia.

The stage is set at the National Assembly to discuss the future of the South Korean stablecoin. 🇰🇷 In just a few moments, Kaia Chairman @seo_sangmin will present our comprehensive KRW stablecoin architecture proposal to legislative and industry leaders. Live coverage below. 🧵

Kaia developers can now build cross-network products through a single SDK integration. The SODAX SDK is live on Kaia, connecting the ecosystem to 17+ networks including Ethereum, Solana, Sui, Arbitrum, and Base. What this unlocks for Kaia builders: - Offer users native-to-native swaps across any supported network. No wrapped tokens, no network switching - Source liquidity from the entire cross-network ecosystem through unified solver-based routing - Enable cross-network lending & borrowing with 20+ assets via an integrated Money Market Typical integration time is about one week from exploration to deployment. Integrate once, access all networks. If you're building DeFi, wallets, or any app on Kaia that needs cross-network reach, check it out. Full breakdown below:

[Final Reminder] Kaia v2.2.2 Hardfork - Apr 7 Less than a week left. The bytecode at address(0) will be removed. After the upgrade, address(0) will behave as a regular EOA. What changes: - Calls to address(0) → succeed (currently reverts) - isContract(address(0)) → false - KAIA transfers to address(0) → succeed If your contracts depend on the previous behavior of address(0), you must review and update before Apr 7.

Kaia is honored to join the Korea National Assembly stablecoin seminar hosted by Assemblyman Min Byung-deok, organized by @tiger_research & KBIPA. As part of our efforts to advance stablecoin policy, Kaia Chairman @seo_sangmin will be speaking on Stablecoin Infrastructure and Domestic Adoption Strategies.

[Reminder] Kaia v2.2.2 Hardfork is coming on Apr 7. The bytecode at address(0) will be removed. After the upgrade, address(0) will behave as a regular EOA. What changes: • Calls to address(0) → succeed (currently reverts) • isContract(address(0)) → false • KAIA transfers to address(0) → succeed Most apps won't be affected, but if your contracts depend on the previous behavior of address(0), review and update before the hardfork.

Tracking stablecoins on Kaia just got easier. KaiaScan has rolled out a nifty new update to the Stablecoin Statistics page, now featuring live Market Cap and Onchain Market Cap data. Dive into the numbers and track the ecosystem's stablecoins here: kaiascan.io/stablecoin

Congrats to every team that completed the program. We'll keep supporting our builders, and they'll keep building on Kaia. Build on Kaia.

The Kaia NEXT Builders Program has officially wrapped up. We selected winning teams from two hackathons in 2025, Korea Stablecoin Hackathon and Kaia Wave Stablecoin Summer Hackathon. And we supported them through the Kaia NEXT Builders Program to help them grow into full-fledged projects in the Kaia ecosystem. Last week, 5 teams presented at Final Demo Day:

[Breaking Change] v2.2.2 Hardfork Upgrade: Removal of Bytecode at address(0) Hi builders, Starting from the v2.2.2 Hardfork (estimated date: Apr 7, 2026 block number: 213333000), the bytecode deployed at address(0) on Kaia Mainnet will be completely removed. After this change, address(0) will behave identically to an EOA without code. Key behavior changes: - Calls to address(0) → succeed (previously reverted) - isContract(address(0)) → false (previously true) - KAIA transfers to address(0) → succeed (previously failed) Most apps won't be affected, but if your contracts depend on the previous behavior of address(0), review and update before the hardfork.
