Layer East Media, Asia's largest Web3 media alliance, is established, and Blockbeats is elected as a board member

Layer East Media is an alliance that aims to unite the top Web3 media in the Asia-Pacific region and help Western projects develop steadily in the region.

On November 9, 2024, Layer East Media, jointly launched by global digital asset giant HashKey Capital and Web3 news platform Decrypt, was officially established. This new media alliance not only covers the most influential Web3 media in the Asia-Pacific region, but also has a huge scale in the region.

The board members of Layer East Media bring together blockchain media from various Asia-Pacific countries, including:

Europe and the United States: Decrypt

Japan: Crypto Times, Coinpost

South Korea: CoinNess, Tokenpost

Vietnam: Coin68

Thailand: Cryptomind Group, Bitcoin Addict

Indonesia: Coinvestasi

China: PANews, Foresight News, Blockbeats, Odaily, Techflow, Chaincatcher, Blocktempo, Wu Blockchain

Formally established

Layer East Media will be officially unveiled at the MOU signing ceremony held at Thailand Blockchain Week on November 10, aiming to help Western Web3 projects smoothly expand their business in the Asia-Pacific region. Due to the unique cultural backgrounds of the Asia-Pacific markets, these factors will affect the company's strategies in product promotion, user market education and customer empowerment.

Layer East Media will help companies cope with the complexity of the Asia-Pacific market. The alliance will also enhance the connection between projects and local users by providing local information. At the same time, as an information and resource center, it serves all stakeholders in the Asia-Pacific market, including Web3 media, innovative Web3 brands, investors and policymakers.

Ilan Hazan, co-founder of Decrypt, said: "We are all excited to launch this top Asia-Pacific Web3 media alliance. This marks that we are moving towards redefining the role of media in the Web3 era. By uniting major crypto media in Asia, Layer East Media is at the forefront of a new media model based on collaboration, transparency and innovation."

Siya Yang, Head of Markets at HashKey Capital, also pointed out that the birth of Layer East Media has opened a new chapter for Web3 media. She said: "This cooperation is the beginning of gathering the power of Asian blockchain media, aiming to promote profound narrative construction, enhance the global influence of Asia-Pacific Web3, and support innovative digital assets and decentralized technology projects in the West."

Layer East Media's three founding principles

Increase transparency: Provide reliable and authentic information in the Web3 field;

Empower innovators and investors: Provide insights and expertise to support wise decision-making;

Promote cooperation: Connect media with Web3 projects to bring innovative experiences to users.

These media were strictly screened and were finally selected based on the quality of their news reports, journalistic ethics, and the ability to provide diversified and real-time information.

Future Outlook

Members of Layer East Media will gain access to exclusive content, industry insights, partnership opportunities, and the chance to expand their readership and customer base.

Web3 businesses will also benefit from direct interaction with the Layer East Media Alliance, gaining coverage of global and local Web3 communities, access to key Asian markets, and partnerships with alliance partners.

Layer East Media will participate in important global crypto, Web3, and fintech events in the future, and work with top venture capital firms and communities to expand its influence.
