About
Kinto is an L2 focused on providing safe access to on-chain finance. It's built on top of the Ethereum network using the Arbitrum Nitro Stack, and it's non-custodial, transparent, permissionless, and governed by the community.
Kinto is fully EVM-compatible but Kinto has two idiosyncratic differences that you need to understand. The first one is that Kinto has User-Owned KYC, meaning every user needs to be verified before sending any transaction. The second one is that Kinto has native Account Abstraction, meaning that users are forced to have a smart wallet instead of plain EOAs and users do not have to worry about or pay gas.
Benefits of Building on Kinto include:
- Free KYC, KYT and AML. You get all this compliance tooling out of the box.
- Sybil resistance.
- Better UI/UX through Account Abstractions.
- Higher level of security through Hypernative and Ironblocks.
- Insurance Policy to all Kinto users.
- Mining rewards for developers based on the usage and TVL of their applications.
