In the previous article, our Founder Li Jun explained the meaning of “TRUST Redefined”. Jesse Liu, Marketing Director of Ontology, announced at the Korea Media Conference that ONTO is available in Korean for the first time and now supports node staking. What’s more, ONTO will soon support Klaytn, Korean social giant Kakao’s public blockchain project. More details will be released soon.

Jesse also revealed that the Ontology Global University Workshop will soon kick off in top Korean universities in Seoul. The workshop will be the largest of its kind so far in the blockchain industry as it will cover dozens of top universities in cities in Korea, Japan, Russia, the US, and Germany. Ontology is aiming to go to the campus to meet aspiring young students developers and build a younger, more innovative and vibrant developer community in the next 1–2 years.

In the media Q&A session, Jesse explained that: “the reason the Ontology team chose to hold the media conference in Seoul is that we see the huge potential of the Korean market. The blockchain technology is widely known in the country and many Korean companies are adopting the technology to transform and upgrade their businesses. More and more university students in the country are starting their own blockchain businesses after graduation in the hope of making their first fortune.”

“The integration of Klaytn into ONTO is another major breakthrough of Ontology in the Korean market. Klaytn is the global public blockchain project of Kakao, a Korean social media giant with hundreds of millions of users. Klaytn now supports a variety of ecosystems and can help us integrate with various industries. We will announce more Korean companies from the traditional industries to join as Ontology nodes in Q3 and Q4 of this year and Korean users will then be able to stake into them and thus participate in co-building the Ontology ecosystem.”

Jesse ended his speech on a positive note, saying that: “in the midst of a speculative market, Ontology differentiates itself by taking a down-to-earth approach to developing our technology and promoting our brand. We think it is more important to let more people learn about us. We are pleased to see that our first media conference in Korea garnering wide attention from the press, making it the most influential media conference in the blockchain sector so far. Moving forward, Ontology is looking forward to working with the Korean media and business partners. You will be able to learn more about Ontology in the upcoming Global University Workshop. Stay tuned!”
