Overview

PARAMETA develops blockchain core technologies (engines and interchain) and offers full‑stack service and dApp (L4) development, with all key technologies developed internally. The company says it has extensive development references across public and private sectors and has delivered mainnet development/operation for global platforms. Notable projects cited include Seoul’s blockchain standard platform, Gangwon’s ‘Nayana’, Gyeongbuk’s public MyData platform ‘Moiso’, EV battery certification ‘Watever’, NFT playground ‘HABA’, L1 interchain platform ‘ICON’, and web3 data protocol ‘Permi’. External validations include TCB TI‑1 grade, a KISA mock technology evaluation A grade for special listing, and selection by POSCO’s unicorn program. PARAMETA reports stable revenue growth and plans to expand R&D, further sophisticate its services, and use domestic performance as a base to enter overseas markets. Iconloop is a Seoul-based distributed ledger and identity-blockchain company that develops the Loopchain core engine and identity services. Its core products include my-ID, a decentralized digital identity authentication service, DPASS (an iOS self-sovereign identity app), and broof, a blockchain certificate issuance and authentication service. The company also operates CHAIN ID, a joint certification service used by 26 domestic securities companies and tied into services such as Kyobo Life’s Smart Insurance Claim Service. Iconloop says my-ID lets users store authentication credentials on mobile devices to enable high-security transactions without face-to-face interaction and aims to simplify repeated identity-document workflows. The company plans to use proceeds from the Series A to launch my-ID and expand the my-ID alliance partner network. My-ID was accepted as a credential service by the South Korean Financial Services Commission, and the CEO framed the round as validation of the product’s marketability in Korea.
