SINGAPORE, Aug. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Klaytn, the blockchain project spearheaded by South Korean Internet giant Kakao, today announced that the Klaytn Foundation, a non-profit entity headquartered in Singapore, will formally officiate its role as the core committee overseeing the scaling of operations and resources for the continued global expansion of the Klaytn blockchain and its ecosystem.

Klaytn blockchain development and ecosystem expansion, previously led by Kakao's blockchain affiliate Ground X, will now be led by the Singapore based Klaytn Foundation, with a focus on the expedition of global growth.
