Kalima, a layer 1, third generation blockchain, is a rapidly growing ecosystem that will enable enterprises, developers and startups to build the future of Web3 Enterprise and Data Governance applications, including IoT (Internet of Things) data, and solve it real world problems.
Kalima’s decentralized network of permissioned blockchains (PrivaChains) allows users to independently govern, manage and monetize their data, as well as create their token for smart-rewarding systems.
Designed as a very modular concept, Kalima gives developers the ability to create decentralized applications (dApps) tailored to specific needs, hosted on PrivaChains. From data notarization, to decentralized finance (DeFi), tokenization (NFTs) and data monetization, Kalima was designed for these dApps to be created as a means to generate new business models or improve existing ones.
Kalima’s system has already been chosen by companies for implementation in several real-world use cases. This success can be attributed to the simplicity Kalima offers developers within these organisms.
The Kalima Blockchain offered to the public expands the horizons of applications for Kalima developers and users.
How is Kalima built?
Kalima’s blockchain technology was developed in-house by the Kalima development team in a way that offers more utility, modularity and scalability than any other Blockchain for enterprise and IoT projects.
The infrastructure consists of Kalima MainChain and a decentralized network of independent permissioned blockchains called Kalima PrivaChains.
Kalima MainChain is a network of blockchains called “Channels”. KLX is stored on the Kalima MainChain.
Each Kalima PrivaChain is independent with its own governance and has the ability to connect to other Kalima PrivaChains or with Tezos, Lightning Network, and soon with Polygon and Cosmos hubs.
This network of blockchains is Kalima’s way of helping developers and businesses adopt blockchain technology at an industrial level. Blockchains in the Kalima ecosystem are permissioned blockchains, where only predetermined nodes can see the ledger and participate in consensus.
This multichain approach solves transaction speed issues, brings smart contracts to the edge, and generally allows PrivaChain owners to have independent governance of a blockchain, with all the Kalima benefits, and without having to develop it from scratch.
This opens up a whole new world of possibilities for blockchain business applications.
Kalima SDK and APIs
The goal of the Kalima SDK is to allow developers to easily create custom dApps from scratch. SDK-based blockchains are built out of composable modules, most of which are open source and readily available for any developer to use.
The Kalima SDK uses standard languages and is compatible with Linux, Windows, Android, iOS and macOS. A user-friendly, flexible API is one of the cornerstones of the Kalima Blockchain. Well-defined APIs are essential for Kalima Blockchain to support the many use cases that users can develop.
APIs are open source to guarantee the transparency of the project. The core Kalima technology source code is only available to “Consortium members”, as a way to prevent uncontrolled forks that could complicate governance and create security issues. However, the ecosystem’s governance, the “Kalima Blockchain Consortium”, may change in the future.
In addition, APIs are designed to be easy to use, so beginners can write code on the Kalima Blockchain without any problems.
Here are the available APIs on Kalima Blockchain:
- Android
- Java
- C
- C#
- REST
- Kalima Tezos
- Kalima Lightning Network

Smart contracts
Smart contracts are at the heart of the development of any decentralized application. The Kalima Smart Contracts are easy to develop and execute on the client side.
The Kalima blockchain enforces business logic through smart contract code, which is constructed as a pure function that either accepts or rejects a transaction, and can be composed of simpler, reusable functions. The functions interpret transactions as taking states as input and producing output states through the use of (smart contract) commands and accept the transaction if the proposed actions are valid. Contracts define part of the business logic of the ledger: nodes will run contracts inside a sandbox.

Why build on Kalima Blockchain
Kalima is a rapidly growing ecosystem that will enable businesses, developers and startups to build the future of Web3 applications and solve real-world problems.
The rapid transition from Web2 to Web3 replaces centralized infrastructure and applications with decentralized infrastructures and dApps (decentralized applications). The goal is to help users fully control their own data, and use it independently for their desired goals.
As infrastructure providers, it was crucial for Kalima to give absolute freedom, full flexibility and independent management to those who build on our network. Kalima is fast, cost-effective, low-energy and highly scalable, and our users are able to tailor the solution to their specific needs, creating, expanding and improving their business models.
One of the main features that enable this value creation is smart contracts on the client side. Kalima is one of the few Blockchain for enterprise projects that offers this option, which is the customer’s capacity to design their own smart contract model, which essentially means that each PrivaChains will interact with data in a different way.
Kalima users will be able to use KLX, Kalima’s native token, in their own dApps and PrivaChains, creating new opportunities in terms of rewards and monetization. With an open source API available in most programming languages, building with Kalima is easy.
KLX is also used to and receives developer grants from Kalima. The earlier someone builds on Kalima, the more they will be rewarded. Not only will the first 1084 deployers of a PrivaChain be rewarded in KLX for being early adopters, but Kalima is kick-starting its ecosystem with a Grants program, as well as Hackathons with prizes in KLX.
The Grants program will see a large portion of token sale proceeds transferred to internal and external developers creating dApps on the Kalima ecosystem, fueling the growth of our network.
Hackathons organized by Kalima will see the first 5 places rewarded in KLX, with the top place earning €10,000 worth of KLX.
With that, it is important for Kalima’s developer community to have a good grasp of how to program the applications they need. Kalima offers a complete set of tools for building dApps and for launching enterprise blockchains in the form of PrivaChains.
