      What Is Kin?

      Kin is a decentralized cryptocurrency purposely designed to integrate easily across Mobile and Web Apps, with a built-in incentive model that rewards developers for increased usage. Apps built with Kin get paid for creating compelling cryptocurrency-based user experiences, where greater engagement results in shared economic benefits for users and developers. It was initially launched in 2017 as an ERC20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, but has since migrated to the Solana blockchain, enabling consumer-scale apps to transact swiftly, with minimal-to-no fees. Today, the Kin ecosystem boasts 60+ million wallets, and has distributed over $70M in rewards across 60+ apps since its inception.
