Exclusive coverage of a notable project aiming to become one of the top 30 chains in the world
Why is MOOI, an emerging blockchain among the many blockchains out there, so highly regarded? We spoke with Mr. Zhao of Voyager Japan about its background, future areas of focus, and expansion into the Japanese market.
Launching a Web 3.0 project for the domestic market
What are the current plans for MOOI Network and what initiatives are you focusing on?
Cho Hun-je (hereinafter, Cho): MOOI Network (hereinafter, MOOI) began full-scale operation last year, and up until now, we have focused on building a blockchain infrastructure. Our number one goal is to create a blockchain that is easy to use and has an intuitive UI and UX.
As a result of focusing on these aspects, we were able to release an NFT marketplace called "Jellyme." We are currently focusing on building the MOOI ecosystem through Jellyme.
MOOI is currently bridging with Klaytn and Polygon. As the number of compatible chains increases, I think more users will join Jellyme and other services, but are there any blockchains that you are currently planning to bridge to?
Zhao: MOOI is a network compatible with EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine), but if you create a blockchain on your own, it is difficult to gain credibility from the beginning. For that reason, I think most blockchains ensure their reliability by publishing their source code or forming partnerships with external parties.
At MOOI, we focus on creating an ideal network and aim to position ourselves as a layer 2 chain that does not depend on external capital, so we thought we could ensure reliability. With that in mind, we started as a layer 2 chain for Klayton.
However, we are not completely dependent on Klayton. We are working with Klayton to ensure that blocks are generated properly.
In terms of ensuring reliability, we are not currently considering partnering with other blockchains. However, I think there may be situations where the freedom of asset movement cannot be ensured unless liquidity is secured with other networks.
At MOOI, we support Klayton and Polygon using solutions from partner companies, and we would like to continue to work with other networks in terms of liquidity.
In the future, it is important for us to make the blockchain as easy to use as possible for Japanese people, so we think it is important to collaborate with Ethereum and Ripple, for example.
