According to the official announcement on the LinkedIn post, the strategic partnership is expected to enhance SK Telecom’s affiliations with customer-preferred mainnets and decentralized applications(dApps). The focus will also be on its Web3 wallet service, T wallet.

• SKT also plans to plan to offer users tangible value by connecting them to the dApp ecosystem within Aptos’ layer-1.
• The company said that leveraging Aptos’ MoveVM blockchain technology represents a significant step forward in making Web3 services more accessible to a wider audience.
• Confirming the development, Aptos co-founder and chief technology officer Avery Ching tweeted,

“Looking forward to unlocking new classes of Internet experiences (with blockchain in the background) through Move, sub-second latency, best-in-class throughput, & enterprise-grade operations.”

• SK Telecom first joined forces with crypto firms AhnLab Blockchain Company and Atomrigs Labs last July to release a digital wallet enabling users to receive, transfer, and store cryptocurrencies, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and “soulbound tokens.”
• A year later, the telecom giant revealed a collaboration with Korean crypto services firm Team Blackbird, which operates the blockchain data and analytics platform CryptoQuant, to introduce the T wallet product.
• SK Telecom also entered a partnership with Polygon Labs to enhance its Web3 ecosystem.
