Kalao (KLO) is a non-fungible token (NFT) ecosystem built on Avalanche (AVAX), a layer 1blockchain. It aims to accelerate the adoption of virtual reality (VR) technology and combines its own VR showroom with DeFi capabilities on its NFT marketplace. On the Kalao NFT marketplace, users can create, sell, purchase and collect NFTs. Furthermore, they can also showcase their NFT collections in a personalized 3D NFT gallery. By using Avalanche as its blockchain of choice, Kalao offers fast and secure transactions at low fees. Kalao also aims to integrate NFTs into real-world use cases by enabling users to exhibit their art, sell luxury goods through the marketplace, or even use it as an event ticketing framework. In the future, Kalao plans to build a metaverse called “The Citadel,” where users can buy or rent lands, promote their businesses, or invite people over for a virtual hangout.
Who Are the Founders of Kalao?
Kalao (KLO) was founded by CEO Hassan Benahmed and chief marketing officer (CMO) Efe (last name unknown). Although not much is known about the team behind Kalao, the project has an illustrious list of backers and investors that include Avalanche (AVAX), AvaLaunch, Maven Capital, OkEx Blockdream Ventures and Fantom, to name but a few.

What Makes Kalao Unique?
Kalao (KLO) aims to stand out by offering a fully decentralized, scalable and low-cost NFT marketplace. That is crucial to fulfilling its goal of bringing real-world use cases to NFT like:
Event ticketing. Event organizers will be able to use the Kalao Marketplace to issue and sell tickets for concerts, sports events and seminars; users can trade tickets; artists can stream their concerts live and thereby reach out to a wider audience.

As distinct from proof-of-work (PoW) or proof-of-stake (PoS), all nodes on Avalanche process and validate transactions by employing a directed acyclic graph (DAG) protocol. In this way, transactions are processed simultaneously and validators’ random polling ensures that transactions are correct with statistical certainty. Unlike PoW and PoS, there are no blocks in this consensus mechanism, thus allowing for immediate finalization and significantly improving the blockchain’s speed.
