What is WKLAY?

WKLAY is KAIA packaged as a standard token. DEX pools, lending markets, NFT marketplaces and many smart contracts can only handle tokens, not the native coin, so they use WKLAY. The WKLAY contract holds every deposited KAIA and mints exactly the same amount of WKLAY; unwrapping burns it and returns the KAIA. Nothing else is involved — no price, no slippage, no counterparty.

Why use this tool

  • Canonical contracts only — the same WKLAY address that DEX routers use, verified on-chain.
  • Every transaction is simulated first; the network fee is shown before you sign.
  • “Max” keeps enough KAIA for gas, so a wallet is never left unable to move.
  • Bulk mode: wrap or unwrap in many wallets at once (entire balance, a percentage or a fixed amount), keys never leave your browser.
  • No service fee — only network gas.

FAQ

Does wrapping change the value of my KAIA?

No. 1 KAIA = 1 WKLAY, always. The contract holds the KAIA and gives it back 1:1 when you unwrap.

When do I need WKLAY?

When a protocol works only with tokens: adding liquidity, some DEX trades, lending, NFT bids or a bot that trades WKLAY pairs.

How much does it cost?

Only the network fee of one contract call. ChainTx charges nothing for wrapping or unwrapping.

Is bulk mode safe?

Private keys are processed only in your browser tab to sign each wallet’s own transaction and are never sent to our servers. For everyday use, the connected-wallet mode needs no keys at all.
