YG Entertainment, a South Korean company that houses a number of world-famous Kpop stars, including Black Pink, Big Bang, and Winner, has officially jumped into the world of non-fungible token or NFT. The agency just announced it has partnered with Binance for blockchain-related projects and transactions.
According to Pulse News, YG Entertainment’s strategic partnership with the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange will allow it to engage in different virtual asset and blockchain-based businesses. Under the deal, the Kpop agency will be delivering content, and Binance will be providing technical infrastructure for it. Based on the announcement, YG Entertainment and Binance signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for their collaboration on Tuesday, Feb. 8.
