What EAK Digital does

EAK Digital is a Web3-native marketing and public relations agency founded in 2017 by Erhan Korhaliller, headquartered in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, with offices in London, Istanbul, Los Angeles, and Tokyo, and a remote-first global team spanning five continents. The firm serves cryptocurrency exchanges, blockchain protocols, DeFi platforms, NFT projects, and Web3 gaming studios with services spanning global public relations, influencer and KOL marketing, go-to-market strategy consulting, content creation, social media management, performance marketing, 24/7 Discord and Telegram community management, event management, and SEO.

The firm's primary assets are its proprietary KOL network of more than 1,000 influencers across eight-plus languages with aggregate reach exceeding 100 million, journalist relationships at Tier-1 outlets including Forbes, Bloomberg, CNN, CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, Yahoo Finance, Business Insider, and CNBC, and ownership of three flagship event properties: Istanbul Blockchain Week, W3E Gaming, and the BlockDown Festival.

EAK Digital operates a bespoke professional services model with quote-based pricing on multi-year contracts, supplemented by performance marketing arrangements tied to measurable outcomes and, through EAK Ventures, carried interest from portfolio investments.

• Coinbound: Coinbound is a crypto influencer marketing agency that connects Web3 projects with creators and manages KOL campaigns at scale, directly overlapping with EAK Digital's largest claimed differentiator.

Broad incumbents

• AKQA: AKQA, the WPP-owned creative agency where EAK's founder previously worked, is a broad incumbent in digital marketing and brand experience that occasionally competes for Web3 mandates — relevant contextually given EAK's lineage.

Others

• Cointelegraph: Cointelegraph is one of the largest crypto-native media outlets that EAK regularly secures placements in (alongside CoinDesk and others). It is not a direct competitor but an ecosystem publisher that both enables EAK's PR outcomes and operates adjacent content services.
