Konnect Joins Chainlink BUILD Program to Turbocharge Adoption of End-to-End Ecosystem Membership Program
We’re excited to announce that Konnect has officially joined the Chainlink BUILD program. As a part of BUILD, we aim to accelerate ecosystem growth and long-term adoption of Konnect’s on-chain membership program by gaining enhanced access to Chainlink’s industry-leading oracle services and technical support, as well as incentivizing greater cryptoeconomic security, in exchange for a commitment to provide network fees and other benefits to the Chainlink community and service providers, including stakers.
Our participation in BUILD furthers our integration with Chainlink, with the added benefits of priority support from the Chainlink ecosystem, stronger incentive alignment between the Chainlink and Konnect communities, and increased access to oracle services needed within Konnect’s Web3-focused membership program.
We’re confident that through enhanced support, secure off-chain services, and the backing of Chainlink’s vibrant community, we can accelerate awareness of Konnect and realize the adoption of a utility-focused membership program that empowers consumers to benefit from an ecosystem made up of thousands of B2B and B2C businesses.
Konnect: An end-to-end Web3 consumer membership program
Konnect’s mission is to build an end-to-end consumer membership and e-commerce program that provides the Konnect community with exclusive membership perks within a growing ecosystem of legacy B2B and B2C businesses, including:
- HDC Hotels and Resorts — A Hyundai-affiliated 5-star luxury hotel and resort chain that offers refined luxury experiences in the most attractive tourist destinations in South Korea.
- The Shilla Duty-Free — A Samsung-affiliated chain of duty-free stores in airports across Asia.
- Inn Company — An entertainment company in Korea that has collaborations with famous actors and K-pop stars
These are just a few examples of the top-tier consumer brands within the Konnect ecosystem. Whether streamlining operations across many B2B and B2C businesses or offering exclusive e-commerce discounts and digital experiences for Konnect consumers, Konnect provides an end-to-end system that bridges legacy, physical product-based businesses with the emerging Web3 ecosystem.
Why We Joined Chainlink BUILD
Konnect joined BUILD to maximize the benefits of security and reliability that Chainlink’s oracle infrastructure provides. As part of BUILD, Konnect will receive key benefits, including access to and integration of tamper-proof randomness to create verifiably random NFTs in our NFT marketplace. Konnect will also leverage Chainlink to bring secure and reliable data on-chain, as well as decentralized smart contract automation for batch revealing NFT mints within Konnect’s NFT marketplace. Chainlink BUILD also enables Konnect to receive access to new Chainlink product alpha and beta releases, among other benefits.
In exchange for these services, Konnect will make a percentage of its native token supply available to Chainlink service providers, including stakers, over time. These mutually aligned economic incentives enable both communities to support one another.
“We’re excited to join Chainlink BUILD to gain access to industry-standard oracle services and enhanced technical support that empowers us to build a seamless, end-to-end ecosystem that onboards Web3 businesses and consumers to a new world of digital membership and e-commerce. We look forward to continuing our collaboration together and we welcome the passionate Chainlink community into the Konnect ecosystem.” — Jun Seok Kim, CEO of Konnect.
