Mocaverse has announced its expansion into the South Korea market today. The move aims to bridge, integrate, and export Korean Web3 culture through a multi-partner activation plan focusing on key sectors such as K-pop, digital IP, and GameFi. The ambitious activation plan is set to kick off this week, signalling a significant step in Mocaverse’s expansion strategy.
As a cornerstone growth network, Mocaverse presents an interoperable suite of Account, Identity, Reputation, and PointFi systems, all seeded by the efforts of Animoca Brands.
Forging Partnerships with Major Korean Brands
At the heart of Mocaverse‘s strategy is establishing partnerships with some of South Korea’s most influential brands. These include Cube Entertainment, digital IP platform IPX (formerly LINE Friends), leading Web3 gaming studios like Planetarium Labs, the creators of Nine Chronicles M. Also included are Gomble Games (a mobile gaming powerhouse with over 300k global downloads), as well as Bellygom, LOTTE Group’s flagship NFT initiative. LOTTE Group stands as South Korea’s fifth-largest conglomerate, with diversified operations spanning manufacturing, hotels, and e-commerce.
Through Moca ID, Mocaverse’s on-chain identity system tailored for Web3 gaming, culture, and entertainment, holders will gain access to an exclusive catalogue of experiences. These experiences result from collaborations with Korea’s top brands, designed to immerse users in the rich Web3 ecosystem through engaging games and unique cultural experiences while also allowing them to earn exclusive rewards and Realm Points, the foundational currency of the Moca ID ecosystem.
The partnerships will see the roll-out of co-branded social IP activations and cross-program points swap missions, enabling Moca NFT and Moca ID holders to dive into various Web3 games and cultural experiences. Among the highlights are a creative collaboration featuring a mashup video with K-pop sensations (G)I-DLE and Mocaverse, based on (G) I-DLE’s hit song “Queencard,” and a phygital crossover with the LINE Friends collection. These initiatives aim to engage fans and facilitate onboarding more retail users into the Web3 space.
Building the Largest On-chain Cultural Economy
Mocaverse’s vision extends beyond simple ecosystem creation; it aims to establish the largest on-chain cultural economy by leveraging the network effect of the Mocaverse Partner Network. At the core of the Animoca Brands ecosystem, Mocaverse has pioneered a Web3 identity and PointFi system that enables engagement across more than 400 rewarding experiences within Animoca Brands’ investment portfolio.
This strategic expansion into South Korea represents more than just a growth opportunity for Mocaverse; it’s a commitment to “mocalize” the masses.
