Finschia Archive
This page serves as an archive of information for existing Finschia users, including FNSA token holders, DApp builders, and node operators. As Finschia integrates with Klaytn to form Kaia, this resource now exists as a summary of the key information about Finschia and a subset of the broader Kaia documentation.
About Finschia
Finschia is a Cosmos-SDK-based chain that migrated the state of the former LINE Blockchain Mainnet and launched on December 22, 2022.
Following the approval of Klaytn's KGP-25 and Finschia's FGP-23 on-chain proposals, the two chains are undergoing phased technical integration.
The FNSA token, which is the native (base) coin of the Finschia mainnet, can be converted (swap & bridge) into the KAIA token through the Kaia Portal once it launches with the Kaia Mainnet. KAIA is the native coin of the Kaia Mainnet.
