Why Focus on Korea?

TTC Protocol believes that the partnership with key Korean social platforms is a perfect real-life sandbox environment to test-launch its first local ecosystem for the following reasons:

  1. Quick Tech Adoption: More than half the population of Korea resides within a 100 km radius of Seoul, its capital, and the majority are highly educated (>~70% attended university). It is one of the most-wired countries in the world with some of the fastest Internet available. Korea has a unique setting where information and trends can spread more quickly than other parts of the world.
  2. Wide User Coverage: 7.5m users is a significant number by itself, yet what is more impressive is that there are only about 15m millennials [aged 14 to 36] in Korea. With these new partnerships, TTC Protocol will quickly penetrate a majority of the Korean millennial market, creating a powerful network effect.
  3. Digital Currency Friendly: Korea was one of the first countries to begin purchasing digital assets with fiat currency. In early 2000, a Korean citizen reportedly paid over 25k USD for a digital sword in a popular MMORPG. This trend continues today; one recent study claims that 40% of white-collar Korean workers own or have owned one or more cryptocurrencies.

Brian Cheong, President, and Founder of TTC Protocol, said, “this dAPP partnership with four, number-one vertical social platforms in Korea is only the first step for the mass adoption of blockchain.” He added that, “considering that top Ethereum dAPPs have around one-thousand daily active users, we are very excited to see millions of users being migrated onto blockchain; TTC Protocol will lead the mass user adoption movement.”
TTC Protocol recently launched their “Merapi” Testnet, which is currently undergoing penetration and security testing. In the following months, the four new dAPP partners will be integrated with the TTC SDK to simulate and test the TTC Reward Engine [TReE] before going live to the public in Q1 2019.
TTC Protocol plans to expand its partnerships to other regions such as Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam.
