Arcana’s Chain Abstraction on Kaia: The L1 Powering Asia’s Leading Messengers
We’re excited to announce that Arcana is partnering with Kaia Chain to bring Chain Abstraction to Asia’s largest Web3 ecosystem. Developers building on Kaia can now offer users a Unified Balance of assets held across multiple EVM chains, enabling them to spend instantly on Kaia.
This means a seamless, chain-abstracted UX with no need to bridge assets, manage multiple wallets, or hold native gas tokens. Whether users hold USDT on Arbitrum or ETH on Scroll, they can now spend it directly on a Kaia-based app — all in a single click. This is a major milestone as Arcana expands to one of Asia’s largest web3 ecosystems of 250M+ users.
Kaia is an EVM-equivalent Layer 1 blockchain formed through the merger of Klaytn and Finschia, which were L1s developed by Kakao and LINE NEXT, respectively. Kakao is the company behind Kakaotalk, the dominant messenger superapp used by over 90% of smartphone users in South Korea. LINE, meanwhile, is a leading superapp across Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, and Indonesia.
Unlocking Chain-Abstracted UX on Kaia
Arcana’s Chain Abstraction SDK abstracts away the friction of multichain interactions. With Kaia now supported, any dApp in the Kaia ecosystem can now:
- Offer a Unified Balance: Users see their USDC, USDT, and ETH across chains, aggregated, as one balance.
- Enable 1-Click Spending: Spend directly on Kaia without bridging manually.
- Gas Abstraction: Users can pay for gas with stablecoins—no need to hold native gas tokens for each chain.
- Keep Their Wallets: Arcana works with existing EOAs (e.g., MetaMask or Rabby).
- Plug-and-Play Integration: Add Chain Abstraction to any app with minimal code via Arcana’s CA SDK.
All of this is powered by Arcana's decentralized Intent-Solver Network, which coordinates liquidity and execution behind the scenes to make seamless cross-chain experiences possible.

Why This Matters
Arcana’s Chain Abstraction removes the friction using multiple chains by giving developers the tools to build a unified experience across multiple chains. This opens up new opportunities for apps to tap into broader liquidity and reach more users across multiple ecosystems.
With Kaia now supported, Arcana is one step closer to unifying UX across Web3 and helping users interact with blockchain apps as easily as they use Web2.
