What is Keeta (KTA)?

Keeta is a Delegated Proof of Stake (dPoS) blockchain that uses a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) data structure. DAGs are a breakthrough seen in other high-performance blockchains like Sonic (previously known as Fantom), Avalanche, and Sui. These DAGs enhance the speed of parallel transaction processing and boost overall blockchain performance, indicating that Keeta can compete with other high-performance blockchains.


What sets Keeta apart from the rest is its emphasis on linking the world’s financial systems to the blockchain through features like integrated KYC, digital identity, and on-chain FX. Importantly, Keeta can tap into the extensive corporate network of its major investor, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, which helps in securing partnerships with other significant financial infrastructure companies like Solo, a firm also supported by Eric.

Understanding about Keeta

Keeta Network is a new Layer 1 (L1) blockchain aiming to connect TradFi and DeFi, with plans to roll out their mainnet in the summer of 2025.

Keeta aims to connect traditional finance (Trad-Fi) with decentralized finance (DeFi). It’s supported by Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, who probably played a key role in forming partnerships for the initiative. According to tests, Keeta can handle an impressive 10 million transactions per second (TPS) and settles transactions in just 400 milliseconds.

KTA Token

Keeta quietly introduced their token, KTA, on the Ethereum Layer 2 Base in March 2025. Their token was rolled out without an airdrop, and liquidity pools were set up on Base’s main decentralized exchange (DEX), Aerodrome. KTA kept a humble market cap of under $10 million until it had its first breakout in mid-March.

Tokenomics

  • Maximum token supply of 1 billion.
  • 50% for Community.
  • 40% for the team and investors.
  • 10% as foundation treasury.
  • Linear vesting periods of 24 to 48 months, the first unlock of insiders excluding foundation tokens is in September 2025.

Conclusion

In a world where crypto is being embraced by more and more financial institutions, innovations like Keeta Network are a great addition. It has the potential to capitalize on the growing popularity of stablecoins and real-world assets (RWA), possibly becoming a key player connecting TradFi and DeFi. Keeta’s offerings are similar to those of another TradFi-focused L1, Mantra Chain, which also aims to bring KYC and RWAs onto the blockchain. The main difference so far appears to be their product launch strategies, with Mantra enjoying a much larger market presence through various airdrop campaigns, while Keeta has quietly introduced their token and products.


Another notable distinction is the support from Eric Schmidt, the former Google CEO. His connections could pave the way for numerous partnerships for Keeta. The future looks promising for Keeta, but since their mainnet hasn’t launched yet, users should be cautious, especially when dealing with the KTA token, which has a relatively high insider allocation of over 50%.
