On February 18, PUBLISH entered into a strategic partnership with CoinNess.

Through the partnership, PUBLISH and CoinNess will cooperate in the areas of content and technology. CoinNess will also join PUBLISHalliance as a so-called “Super Publisher,” one of at least 21 nodes responsible for co-operating a consortium blockchain and supporting the development of PUBLISHprotocol.

Regarding the partnership, PUBLISH CEO Kwon Sung Min said:

I understand how much effort it takes to deliver fast and accurate news. The partnership with CoinNess, which is particularly strong in the area of real-time breaking news coverage of the crypto markets, will be a big boost for both companies in terms of content. . . . We will work with more publishers to expand PUBLISHalliance, and together we will create a window for realizing the value of the media.

Echoing Sung Min’s remarks, Lee Seung Hwan, CEO of CoinNess, remarked that “[CoinNess’s] partnership with PUBLISH, Inc. extends far beyond a simple content sharing initiative. Together, [CoinNess and PUBLISH] aim to co-develop an vital blockchain-based ecosystem for independent publishers to thrive.”
