Introducing The MEDIA Protocol Blockchain Advisors
We’ve had lots of exciting news to share with our community recently. Beginning with the updated design and messaging on the MEDIA Protocol website and whitepaper, we were then excited to announce the formation of our innovative Marketing Advisory Team, and followed that with the news that our proof of concept CryptoCatnip dApp was going open source.
Following on from all these important milestones, MEDIA Protocol would now like to introduce its team of Blockchain Advisors. They all bring considerable knowledge and experience of the crypto and blockchain space to the wider MEDIA Protocol team. Keep reading and find out more about our Blockchain Advisors.

Collaboration Is Key
As we move into Q4 of 2018 the importance of collaboration has become increasingly more apparent. The crypto and blockchain space is not about competition. Its decentralised nature encourages collaboration in order to drive evolution within the space. MEDIA Protocol is not only excited to collaborate with all our highly experienced advisors, but we continue to partner with other crypto projects, sharing their news and announcements on our CryptoCatnip dApp, and running AMAs with founders and CEOs. Together we continue working towards improving the value exchange between content producers and consumers.
