SEONGNAM, South Korea-LINE NEXT Inc., LINE’s venture dedicated to developing and expanding the Web3 ecosystem, has launched Mini Dapps and Dapp Portal powered by the Kaia blockchain, available to users around the world.
Designed to make the Web3 user experience seamless and intuitive, Mini Dapps are accessible directly on LINE Messenger and through the Dapp Portal’s Official Accounts without downloading a separate application.
On Dapp Portal, users can search, discover, and engage with a wide range of Mini Dapps in categories such as games, social media, and Web3-enabled content. Mini Dapps can also be found through each of their LINE Official Accounts, the account service of enterprises or brands on LINE Messenger.

LINE NEXT will also add the Dapp Portal segment to the LINE Messenger home tab while launching a web version of Dapp Portal that is accessible without installing the LINE Messenger mobile app in the future. Further details about using Mini Dapps can be found on Dapp Portal’s Medium channel. (https://lin.ee/CAvy5jQ/qbko)
