SORAMITSU Success Stories: The Working Partnership with the Klaytn Foundation
→ After concluding the development of an open-source decentralized exchange backbone for the Klaytn network, we reflect on the experience of working with Klaytn’s governance to build for the community.
In February 2023, we announced the successful conclusion of the decentralized exchange testnet. The entire Klaytn community rallied around the effort of helping us test the recently built infrastructure and its features, as well as letting us know what improvements they want to see added. All the community support and feedback led to us providing another release that addressed the community's findings and polished some features.
All of this would not have been possible without the support of the Klaytn Foundation and the Klaytn Governance Council, who worked with us every step of the way to design and implement infrastructure that was needed by the community, which helps foster decentralization and inclusivity in the network. The foundation's attention and support toward organizing working sessions and proposal reviews are unmatched in the Web3 space, and the care they put into ensuring the community receives the best possible infrastructure and works with the best teams to provide it is exemplary of the space.
SORAMITSU as a Trusted Technology Partner
Given the current market conditions, community-run treasuries are finding it more difficult to fund projects that will increase the network's value, partly because of the elevated cost to develop and the lack of trust in technology providers. Although taking the money and running is a fringe case that is less prevalent in the blockchain ecosystem, other factors such as keeping to deadlines, which may seem like a simple enough concept, can make or break the outcomes of these projects. And while there are milestones and reports involved, in many cases they fail to materialize.
SORAMITSU earned the trust of the Klaytn Foundation and the community through hard work and dedication, as well as a commitment to fulfilling the deadlines set during the proposal phases of the project. We are proud to say that during the entire development process, all the deadlines were met and the reports were duly submitted for community scrutiny. This achievement, along with the value alignment between SORAMITSU and Klaytn, made for a successful project and most importantly, helped achieve trust from the community, which, in the current environment, is extremely difficult to build.
Working with the Best in the Ecosystem
The Klaytn ecosystem is extremely robust and well-positioned. They work with the best technology providers across the board, and we are proud to be included in this list. Working with other world-class companies, to ensure that everything built is up to the network's standards and most importantly, safe enough to support the staggering amount of transactions made on a daily basis requires every line of code to be audited.
Our experience collaborating with a Klaytn ecosystem auditor such as Quantstamp helped us appreciate the dedication to community safety that is constantly worked toward achieving.

Klaytn is a technically advanced blockchain with big support for new projects, ranging from infrastructure to funding. It has a very developer-friendly community, which is oriented toward the principles of decentralization and open-source development. I am very glad that our vision for future evolutions is aligned to Klaytn's and based on Web3 ideals.
“
The Klaytn Community is composed of the most judicious, innovative, and remarkable individuals in the Web3 ecosystem. They inspire us individually and as a company to be the best versions of ourselves. It is a daunting task, but we remain driven and singular in our mission to strengthen the Klaytn Ecosystem's utility and advance the merits and benefits of decentralized technologies. The current times demand it of us, and we will rise to that occasion every day.
