Catalyze Research and Ripple partnered to expand the presence of the XRP Ledger ecosystem in S. Korea
In a significant move to expand the presence of the XRP Ledger (XRPL) ecosystem in South Korea, Ripple, the leader in enterprise blockchain and crypto solutions, and Catalyze Research, the leading Web3 and blockchain consulting group, have announced a strategic partnership. The collaboration aims to leverage the vibrant Web3 developer community in South Korea, which has demonstrated strong expertise and innovation in blockchain technology.
The XRP Ledger, known for its open-source, energy-efficient, and decentralized Layer-1 blockchain, has garnered recognition for its native functionality and proven reliability, security, and enterprise-grade protocol capabilities. Over the past decade, it has served as a trusted platform for the settlement and liquidity of tokenized assets. With a global developer community that includes XRPL Foundation, XRPL Labs, XRPL Commons, and Ripple, the XRPL ecosystem is continuously supported and enhanced by contributions from various developers worldwide.
“South Korea has emerged as a vibrant hub for blockchain and Web3 technology, with a strong developer community that has showcased remarkable innovation and expertise. Through our collaboration with Catalyze Research, we aim to further strengthen the presence of the XRPL in this dynamic market. With our shared vision of fostering growth and adoption, we are excited to provide South Korean developers with the tools, education, and support they need to unlock the full potential of XRPL,” said Markus Infanger, VP of RippleX Growth at Ripple. “Together, we will empower the South Korean blockchain community to drive innovation and accelerate the global adoption of XRPL-powered solutions.”
“By fostering an environment of innovation and collaboration, we aim to accelerate the growth of the XRPL developer ecosystem in South Korea, ultimately positioning the country as a global leader in blockchain and Web3 technology through developing real use cases, said Ben Ko, CEO of Catalyze Research.”
The partnership is expected to provide South Korean blockchain developers with access to international networks and substantial technical support, thereby elevating the overall quality of South Korean blockchain technology. This, in turn, will enhance South Korea’s role as a pivotal hub for the global development and application of blockchain technology.
Ultimately, this collaboration aims to enhance South Korea’s role as “a pivotal hub for the global development and application of blockchain technology.”
