In which region does the project begin its development? In Asia?
Community manager in the comments wrote that from Asia. It is quite a sensible strategy given the financial and human potential in this region.
Totally agree with you. This is a huge market with huge money. If you get even a small (in percentage) share in it, then there probably will not be a need to pursue further expansion, as the profit will be great.
Still, if the platform wants to become global, then it is necessary to expand. But about the Asian market, I agree with your conclusions.
