  <p class="paragraph">“We believe that the recognition of our newly introduced ‘Astar zkEVM powered by Polygon’, an Ethereum layer 2 solution by Astar Network, by KDDI Corporation, a major domestic telecommunications operator with significant influence in the content field, and αU, is a testament to the high expectations for Astar zkEVM and the strong reputation Astar Network has built both domestically and internationally.”</p>
 </blockquote>
 <p class="paragraph">He added:</p>
 <blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
  <p class="paragraph">“With world-class tools in the Astar zkEVM ecosystem, businesses can develop services that benefit from Ethereum while offering high UX, low fees, and fast transactions. We feel that we are very compatible with KDDI Corporation and αU, both of which focus on creating platforms and content with a user-first approach.”</p>
 </blockquote>
 <p class="paragraph">All in all, leveraging KDDI’s proficiency in 5G communication and cutting-edge content service operations, together with the global network, Web3 business insights, and technology from Astar Network and Startale Labs, the collaboration aims to enhance the αU service. Their shared vision is to foster a creator economy and craft novel customer experiences through Web3 technology.</p>
