Cointelegraph opened a Seoul office at the Conrad Hotel, marking its expansion into South Korea's crypto market, which accounts for roughly 30% of global trading. The team plans to partner with universities and media, launch an AI system, and produce a documentary about the country's blockchain scene.
Hot news. And no, I'm not talking about my noodles getting warmed up, but close. Let's play a game. What country am I talking about? Try to take a guess. This country has the third largest crypto economy in the world. This country is estimated to account for 30% of total cryptocurrency trading worldwide. Kimchi and super spicy noodles are a local favorite here. Of course, this. This country is South Korea. And a footnote in general, they call themselves the Republic of Korea. Cointelegraph recently launched a new representative office here in South Korea. Yes, we are taking over the world. For this occasion, a grand opening ceremony took place in Seoul. So we're here at the Conrad Hotel in Seoul. And we're here for the cointelegraph Korea launch party. And it sounds like it's already going, so I hope we're not too late, but let's go check it out. Awesome view. Awesome party. Welcome to the middle of Seoul, the heart of blockchain here in the continent. So I think it's pretty cool. Let's check it out. I wonder how many times they rehearsed this to get it right. Cheers. What do you think, man? Pretty cool, right? Yeah, why not? What do you guys think? This is pretty cool, right? Yeah. You think it's a good kickoff? Yeah, pretty good. You think Korea is a good place to open? This has already been opened. Alright. So it's a good idea or a bad idea? It's happening, right? So what do you guys think? Pretty cool event. Yeah, it's a very good place and very surrounded. Very good event. Yeah, yeah, very cool. And you're involved with bitcoin? Bitcoin woman? Yes, Ms. Bitcoin? Yeah, I have involved in industry eight years. Eight years. Wow. So you're a veteran. Yeah. Korea is having big changes in these days. Busan has been announced as a blockchain special zone. And then all these kind of regulatory stories by the government. At the launch of the representative office, everyone was introduced to the editors and the main guests. We can collaborate tech and media in Cointet of Korea. We really believe that we will work with major universities here in Korea. And then we want to deliver, make an index, media index. Something that Loiter always wanted to do. We want to try to build that here in Korea. And also we want to make an AI system that delivers nuances to the reader's focused mind. That's our goal. And very soon we will be releasing a new documentary. About what? About South Korea.
