Approval of Bitcoin ETFs and the adoption of AI made 2024 a significant year for the crypto industry. To make the year more amazing, the Klaytn Foundation and Finschia Foundation came up with a new proposal to anticipate rapid transition to Web3.     

On January 16, a tweet from the Klaytn Foundation’s account disclosed the collaboration of the Klaytn Foundation with the Finschia Foundation to construct Asia’s largest Web3 ecosystem. The foundation already submitted the proposal to the Klaytn Governance Council and Community and awaiting a positive response.

The motive is to build a new blockchain supporting both CosmWasm and EVM frameworks. To do so, both the foundations will merge the existing blockchains into a new mainnet, offering one of the biggest Web3 and DApps ecosystems. The collaboration of two different businesses, technologies, networks, and ideas will result in a massive user base of around 250 Million digital wallets operating with over 420 dApps. Additionally, 45 governance partners and around 450 Web3 resources will be encompassed to construct Asia’s biggest Web3 ecosystem.      

Both foundations are eagerly waiting to offer a user-friendly, integrated Web3 experience directly into millions of phones, awaiting governance voting process finalization. On 26 January 2024, the governance voting will start and end on 2nd February 2024. If approved, in Q2 2024, both the foundations will integrate, and introduce a new token. It will be based on the overall amount of KLAY and FNSA, the native tokens of the Klaytn Foundation and Finschia Foundation.

Moreover, the token holders can swap for the new tokens once issued, among which 24% will be burnt immediately to apply Zero Reserve Tokenomics. Also, the new 3-layer burning model will be introduced and inflation rates will be dropped to 5.2% to sustain growth, maximizing decentralization. 

How Does the Proposal Influence the Crypto Market? 

As per Klaytn Governance Proposal, Asia holds over 77% of the cryptocurrency trading volume and over 34% of the global GDP. Asian blockchain’s market capitalization is still only 5%, indicating the need for advancement. However, the announcement had a major influence on the crypto market, mainly on the KLAY and FNSA tokens. The KLAY price reached $0.25, an upsurge of 31.8% in 24 hours whereas the FNSA coin price hit $34.74, a climb of 22.6%, according to The Block’s data.

Additionally, Asia-Pacific has more room to run in the Web3 ecosystem due to consistently high demand from sectors like financial services, banking, healthcare, e-commerce, and insurance. According to Emergen Research data, the Global Web3 market is assumed to hit $81.5 Billion by 2030.        

The Klaytn Foundation is a Layer 1 public blockchain network backed by South Korean internet giant Kakao to empower the on-chain world. In collaboration with several projects like Supra and Flipster, the foundation facilitates the adoption and development of new technologies.     

Finschia Foundation is an independent non-profit blockchain platform in Japan developed by LINE, a popular messaging platform. The platform mainly works to offer Web3 solutions, efforting to move the industry forward.
