What is Kava?

Kava is an EVM Layer 1 blockchain that combines the speed and interoperability of Cosmos' SDK with the developer power of the Solidity programming language and Ethereum. It is an EVM-compatible execution environment that enables Solidity developers and their dApps to benefit from the scalability and security of the Kava Network.

The network has seen a fast uptick in users after the Kava DAO had voted to allocate $750M to on-chain developer incentives, committing majority ownership of the network to the developers. The program, also known as 'Kava Rise' is a programmatic, on-chain incentive mechanism that rewards developers who onboard their projects and users to the Kava Network with distributed ownership.
