Category innovation: World's first Personal Blockchain and On-Device Blockchain technologies unveiled
Market scope: New blockchain types designed for 6.8 billion smartphones and expanding IoT ecosystem
Seoul, South Korea, June 19, 2025 - As artificial intelligence transforms global industries and synthetic data becomes indistinguishable from reality across digital commerce, autonomous systems, and critical infrastructure, brand-new L1 mainnet project ImFact today unveiled Personal Blockchain and On-Device Blockchain, two entirely new categories of blockchain technology designed to realize the team's "Blockchain Anywhere" vision. These innovations represent the first implementations of next-generation DePIN infrastructure specifically architected to establish universal data authenticity verification in the AI era.
Personal Blockchain establishes individual blockchain instances operating natively within smartphones, enabling users to instantly verify photo authenticity for social media fraud prevention, prove document originality for legal proceedings, and conduct secure offline transactions during network outages. Each of the world's 6.8 billion smartphones becomes a personal blockchain-powered environment, creating the foundation for the world's largest distributed verification network.
On-Device Blockchain embeds standalone blockchain instances directly into IoT hardware including security cameras, autonomous vehicles, industrial sensors, and smart appliances. This ensures the generation of accident reports with the proof of the sensor data integrity in real time; security cameras with the guarantee that the videotape cannot be tampered with as legal evidence; and medical IoT devices with verifiable patient data to be used in healthcare decisions. Existing DePIN solutions rely on external validation, but On-Device Blockchain puts cryptographically verifiable trust inside a piece of hardware.
Both innovations operate independently while maintaining cryptographic security through ImFact's proprietary Station technology that provides seamless integration with the L1 mainnet, building a global trust infrastructure where every connected device becomes a participant in comprehensive data verification.
ImFact's blockchain categories lay on six years of proprietary development, the technology having been battle-tested under DaeguChain, managed by Daegu, the 4th biggest city in Korea, which serves 2.5 million residents and was proven to work with enterprise reliability and scalability.
Personal Blockchain operates via mobile applications named MyChain and Fact Stamp (Android was launched in November 2024, and iOS is yet to commence development), allowing the user to manage blockchain instances on a local basis. On-Device Blockchain has completed the MVP implementation on security camera systems, with a plan to go for chip-level integration during the year 2025.
ImFact currently operates Testnet 2.0 for both technologies, demonstrating network stability across 97+ countries and 50,000+ users. Early adopters can participate through device mining rewards and verification incentives, creating new revenue streams for participants. The L1 mainnet launch scheduled for Q4 2025 enables immediate commercial deployment.
ImFact's innovations are led by Professor Minkyu Je (KAIST, former Samsung Electronics Principal Research Engineer) who spearheads hardware blockchain integration essential for device-native implementation. Professor Yasin Ceran (San Jose State University, Stanford Medical School AI research partner) leads Personal Blockchain integration with healthcare data management, developing privacy-preserving solutions for secure personal health data verification. David Woong Jin Yoon (former Gravity CEO who led NASDAQ listing and $1 billion SoftBank acquisition) oversees strategic market introduction and global expansion.
San Jun, Ecosystem Builder: "Personal Blockchain and On-Device Blockchain represent our answer to the 'Blockchain Anywhere' challenge. By directly embedding blockchain technology into existing device infrastructure, we're enabling blockchain functionality wherever computing capability exists."
