Crypto exchange Gate.io signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on Wednesday with the South Korean city of Busan to help develop blockchain infrastructure in the city.
- Under the agreement, Gate.io will assist Busan in developing its budding crypto industry. Terms weren't disclosed.
- That assistance will include promoting the city's initiative to develop local blockchain activity and helping Busan develop, operate and distribute a local stablecoin.
- Gate.io will also help to establish and operate the upcoming Busan Digital Asset Exchange. Crypto exchanges Binance, Huobi and FTX have previously signed such MoUs.
- Busan was approved as a "regulation-free blockchain zone" by the South Korean government in 2019. As a result, the city started a push to become a blockchain hub.
- Gate.io also plans to expand its South Korean operations beyond Busan to stimulate the blockchain industry's growth and enhance its services nationwide, representatives told CoinDesk in a emailed statement.
