GIWA Update

KBW Day 2 is over, but one thing remains clear: GIWA is still testnet-only.
What matters:

- @GIWA_by_Upbit showcased GASOK, its dApp incubation program covering 5 tracks:

DeFi & RWA → @Arco_Fi

Consumer & Social → @ShortChall

ZK Identity → @ZKProofport

AI & Web3 → @MergitonGIWA

Mass Adoption → @CHOK_MARKET

- Dunamu continues positioning GIWA as an onchain financial infrastructure stack built around: GIWA Chain + Dojang + Bojagi

- Dojang uses EAS-based attestations to prove an address has passed KYC without putting personal data onchain.

- Bojagi is a ZK privacy layer aimed at institutions, and was mentioned in connection with an overseas remittance pilot with Hana Bank.

Current status:
-> Mainnet: under development
-> GIWA Wallet: under development
-> Testnet: GIWA Sepolia
-> Chain ID: 91342
-> Gas: ETH
-> Native GIWA token: none announced

Important: any “GIWA mainnet” RPC, bridge, or token circulating right now should be treated with caution.

Mainnet isn’t here yet, but the infrastructure and ecosystem are clearly being built ahead of it.

@Giwatools GIWA builders wasting no time 👀 Launchpad already live on testnet. Let’s see what gets cooked here 🔥

[GIWA Alpha @giwaalpha]

GIWA DeFi / infrastructure is starting to take shape 👀

A few early projects already on my radar:

@heronprotocol

@quadrixfinance

@AmmoraHQ

@custosfinance

@GiwaterFinance

@Hanok_io

@kaachi_io

@OsigeExchange

Still early, but this is the part of the ecosystem worth watching closely.

More GIWA projects soon.

GIWA Morning Update | 30/09/2026

What matters today:

- GIWA mainnet is NOT live yet. The official team already confirmed that any “mainnet RPC”, bridge or contract circulating outside official sources should be treated as unofficial.

- Reports continue around fake networks using Chain ID 9134 to imitate GIWA. Only trust information from GIWA’s official website and docs.

- GIWA is at Korea Blockchain Week today, Sep 30 – Oct 1 in Seoul. Visitors can experience GIWA Wallet, DOJANG and BOJAGI at the booth.

- Current public network remains GIWA Sepolia testnet. GIWA Wallet and Ecosystem are still marked Coming Soon.

- GIWA is an OP Stack L2 powered by Upbit. Gas is paid in ETH and official docs currently show no separate native token.

For now, the main thing is simple: testnet is live, mainnet is not.

@GIWA_by_Upbit

[GIWA Alpha @giwaalpha]

Before GIWA mainnet even opens, the first ecosystem map is already starting to appear.

@GIWA_by_Upbit is attracting projects across several early categories:

NFT

@Jumak_app
@TileOnGIWA
@PunkOnGiwa
@GIWAUP
@elderwoodwiz
@ARIWA_on_Giwa

Launch / Meme infra

@GIWALAUNCHPAD
@GiwaGasok
@Lucrari_fi
@MemeFab_fun
@GIWAForge
@cookhousememe

DeFi, apps & infra

@OreumLabs
@GiwaterFinance
@OsigeExchange
@custosfinance
@TheBingoFi
@Gaejuki_Giwa

Nothing here is confirmed as a winner.

But this is usually the stage where an ecosystem starts forming its first recognizable names.

GIWA Alpha is watching who keeps building when mainnet goes live.

[GIWA Alpha @giwaalpha]

GIWA: Mainnet is NOT live. Official warning on fake RPCs

On Sep 27, @GIWA_by_Upbit confirmed that GIWA Mainnet is not running yet and no official Mainnet RPC has ever been released.

So any post claiming to have a “GIWA Mainnet RPC” is fake.

There are also reports of fake chains using Chain ID 9134 to impersonate GIWA Mainnet. Always verify contracts before connecting your wallet or signing any transaction.

Where GIWA stands now:

- Ethereum L2 built on OP Stack
- Sepolia Testnet is live
- ETH is the default gas token
- No native token yet
- Wallet & stablecoin ecosystem: Coming Soon
-No official Mainnet launch date

The next event to watch is Korea Blockchain Week, Sep 30–Oct 1 in Seoul, where GIWA will showcase GIWA Wallet, DOJANG and BOJAGI.

For now: Testnet is real. Mainnet is not live.

Stay safe and ignore unofficial “GIWA Mainnet RPCs.”

[GIWA Alpha @giwaalpha]

@GIWA_by_Upbit Bro they literally said NO MAINNET 😭 stop aping into random RPCs.

[GIWA Alpha @giwaalpha]

@GIWA_by_Upbit No mainnet, no RPC leak. Stay safe.

[GIWA @GIWA_by_Upbit]

I don’t know how I could emphasize this further :

We DO NOT have our mainnet running currently. Any of those posts claiming that they have GIWA mainnet RPC information are NOT TRUE.

Please, please check the contracts that you interact with and PLEASE STAY SAFE

[GIWA Alpha @giwaalpha]

Warning for everyone watching GIWA:

@GIWA_by_Upbit has NOT launched mainnet yet.

So if you see anyone sharing “GIWA Mainnet RPC”, contracts, or claiming some kind of RPC leak do not interact with it.

There’s no mainnet to leak from in the first place.

DYOR, double-check everything, and stay safe from scams.

[GIWA @GIWA_by_Upbit]

FYI, we haven’t launched our mainnet yet

No possibility of RPC leakage as well since we’ve never launched it 🤷‍♂️

“DYOR” and stay safe from FUDs and scams

[GIWA Alpha @giwaalpha]

.@GIWA_by_Upbit is starting to take shape.

Instead of waiting for the ecosystem to get crowded,
I’m tracking some of the projects building here early:

@OreumLabs → AI

@CallPutApp → Options

@GiwaGasok → Launchpad

@TileOnGIWA → NFT / Memecoin

@Lucrari_fi → Launchpad

@GiwaterFinance → Liquidity

@PunkOnGiwa → NFT

@Quantixfinance → DeFi

@cookhousememe → Launchpad

@TheBingoFi → GameFi

@GIWAForge → Launchpad

@custosfinance → RWA

@Gaejuki_Giwa → Memecoin

@MemeFab_fun → Launchpad

Still early, but the building blocks are already starting to appear across AI, DeFi, RWA, NFTs and consumer apps.

Worth watching how this ecosystem develops from here.
