#KIMA

🚀 Key Highlights from the KIMA X Chaingpt X Space :

1. Kima's Core Technology

💠 A universal interoperability communication protocol enabling seamless interactions:

💠 Between any blockchain and any Web2/Web3 application.

💠 Between centralized apps (like banks or governments) and decentralized apps (dApps).

💠 Kima’s tech stack is partially centralized and proprietary (unforkable), and partially decentralized (open-source on Cosmos).

2. MasterCard Partnership

💠 Kima is integrated into the MasterCard Developer Sandbox, enabling:

💠 Charging prepaid MasterCard accounts with stablecoins like USDC.

💠 Live, direct transactions with no intermediaries, smart contracts, or oracles.
