If I am understanding this correctly, $ICX is taking one strategic move after another to enable full implementation of #MyData in South Korea. This is way bigger than the recently launched MyID, SK’s only govt approved ID verification platform...THREAD. https://icondao-newsroom.moim.co/forums/Q0VF9KN74/threads/T2A7ROKG6

As a first step to establish SK's first blockchain-based digital ID ecosystem, MyID onboarded 70+ industry leaders. And recently released Zzeung for financial sector, with Shinhan Bank & affiliates to integrate the service as the first to meet high demand for remote KYC services.

ICONLOOP is continuously working on further expanding its usage & onboarding more partners. Incl. non financial institutions as the Govt of the tourist hotspot Jeju Island to deploy ICON’s Covid-19 Tracing app Zzeung.

Goal: 100+ partners EOY & 1M+ users in first half of 2021.

VisitMe, ICON’s Covid-19 compliant Visitors Management app has surpassed 100k users and is now being used by 1000 businesses like Paul Basset cafes, Hospitals & Hilton and Conrad hotels in SK, demonstrating the major role of $ICX in Korea post - Covid.

The Seoul Govt is working with ICONLOOP & Samsung SDS to develop the DID based Seoul Citizens Card for the use of Public Services & digital currency S-coin as part of their citizen's reward system to turn Seoul into a blockchain based smart city by 2022

Korea's Top University Postech uses #ICX's public blockchain certificate service Broof for the issuance of graduation diplomas.

Korea's Linkedin SaraminHR utilizes $ICX's Broof, VisitMe and Zzeung to eliminate forgery and fraud in the recruitment and staffing industry.

Recently ICONLOOP also signed an MOU with Pohang City -POSCO-POSTECH to build Pohang’s data ecosystem.

They will work together to create a Digital ID Ecosystem using ICONLOOP’s MyID to transform Pohang City into a Smart City.

Having Korea’s TOP industry leaders and govt embracing and widely implementing ICON’s services shows the amount of trust, credibility & legitimacy $ICX has garnered in SK & of the quality and security of its tech.

And thus far ALL releases will also use the Public Chain & #ICX.

Few years ago this was just an idea on paper but it looks like ICON ICONLOOP has positioned itself well & is on its way to build SK's infrastructure for #MyData.

And as SK is undergoing a digital transformation due to Covid we will see further adoption of $ICX sooner than later
