Makachain
Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands
MakaChain is a next-generation Layer 1 blockchain designed specifically for stablecoin and digital asset payments, operating with a pioneering zero-gas-token model that lets users pay transaction fees in the asset they are transferring rather than requiring a separate native token. Launched on mainnet in Q4 2025, the network uses a Proof-of-Authority consensus mechanism to deliver deterministic one-block finality and sustained throughput of approximately 4,500 transactions per second, with a flat $0.10 fee per transaction. Fully EVM-compatible, MakaChain allows developers to deploy existing Solidity smart contracts and standard tooling with minimal adaptation. The company is headquartered in Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, and has built an integrated ecosystem including the MakaPay merchant solution, MakaWallet digital wallet, the MAKA utility token, and support for local-currency stablecoins such as ARSe (pegged to the Argentine peso). Strategic partnerships with Fireblocks, Cregis, CoinMarketCap, and Estable.IO (a Tether portfolio company) position MakaChain to drive enterprise and government adoption across Latin America and beyond. The co-founders, known as Tomas and Chad, launched the project with the goal of removing friction points that have hindered mainstream stablecoin adoption.
