GroundX, as the initial developer of Klaytn, led the development and launch of the Klaytn mainnet and released key services such as Klip, KAS, and Klip Drops. Through these contributions, it played a significant role as a core GC (Governance Council) member and developer within the Klaytn ecosystem. However, due to various environmental changes and internal business shifts within GroundX, the company has decided to retire from the GC to allow for more suitable council members to support the growth and expansion of the Kaia ecosystem. While GroundX’s departure from the GC is regrettable, we will continue exploring and pursuing various collaborations with other Kakao-affiliated companies. I am deeply grateful for GroundX’s contributions to date.
