Elliptic, a global leader in digital asset decisioning, has announced full blockchain coverage for Kaia, an EVM-compatible Layer-1 network formed in 2024 from the merger of Klaytn and Finschia. Kaia reaches 250 million monthly active users through LINE and KakaoTalk Mini Dapps and has processed over 2.3 billion transactions. The integration enables real-time screening of Kaia wallet addresses and transactions against sanctions and illicit activity, cross-chain fund tracing, and monitoring of regulated stablecoin activity. This supports the growing adoption of regulated yen and won stablecoins in APAC. JPYC, issuer of Japan's first FSA-approved yen stablecoin, is among those expanding stablecoin distribution into Kaia's consumer payment networks. Elliptic's VP APAC, Yvonne Ng, emphasizes that the coverage allows customers to support stablecoin payment flows into LINE and KakaoTalk ecosystems with consistent compliance standards. Financial institutions, exchanges, and stablecoin issuers can now confidently participate in the region's digital asset economy with Elliptic's compliance coverage on Kaia.
