Gm CO community,
Today we have something monumental to announce.The CO Foundation which governs and issues the $CO token will receive a new management board that will carry the torch forward.
From today onwards, I, Vincent Weckström, will be taking over the position as Director of the CO Foundation together with Henrik Hjelte, the Co-Founder of Chromia and ChromaWay.
My background is in business and finance, and I've been working full-time in crypto since early 2022. I have served as a consultant for the CO project for nearly a year now, gaining a clear understanding of both the challenges and opportunities associated with this new position. This insight comes from working closely with the founding team in person at the Stockholm office.
What does this mean for Corite and Project CO?Corite the company, is still led by Mattias, Emil and Emelie and they are continuing working on Aflow in full speed, which has potential to be of great benefit to Project CO funneling in a new segment of artists into our community.
The CO Foundation will continue to develop applications that drive value to $CO holders and further investment into music and culture through tokenization.
We have laid out a 3-step strategy to start with, here’s a broad strokes overview of immediate actions:
- A rebrand of Project CO to create a more crypto-native brand identity and further cement ourselves as one of the top Web3 projects in entertainment.
- Expanding our partnership offering outside of music, while increasingly making our partnerships token-gated to drive value to the $CO token.
- Building up a new advisory board to guide us through this transition from an established brand in the music industry to a crypto-native entertainment hub.
A more detailed roadmap will be shared with you all soon as the rebrand goes live online.
I think CO has huge potential to become a leading community within Web3 entertainment and culture, and I am very excited about taking Project CO to a new level given the market tailwinds we’ve been getting over the past year.
Regarding exchange listings which I know many of you are wondering about, part of the larger roadmap is working up a respectable liquidity for the $CO token. This will be done in collaboration with market makers and top-tier exchanges - so while listings will not happen in the coming months, the year ahead will contain lots of work in this area. Since we are already listed on Bybit, listing on lower tier exchanges will do us no good, which is why we’re aiming high!
