Together, Mysten Labs and ZAN will
explore building opportunities in areas such as payments, data,
digital identity, and more, with the goal of delivering innovative
solutions that benefit consumers, businesses, and the local
community, with an eye to discovering and supporting web3 super app
opportunities. Both organizations are committed to fostering a
collaborative environment and look forward to sharing updates on
the partnership’s milestones as they are achieved.
