Why Korea’s next big export might be…stablecoins In Korea, digital payments are everywhere - KakaoPay, Naver Pay, Toss. And most of them run on prepaid funds. You top up → get points → spend them in a closed loop. Sounds efficient, right? It is. Until you realise... • Points can expire • Can’t be transferred • Are legally capped per user • Can’t plug into global rails Now imagine that same flow - but onchain with KRW stablecoins ⪼ Real-time settlement ⪼ Auditable & transparent ⪼ Transferable across wallets, apps, even borders ⪼ No expiry, no artificial limits Here’s where it gets interesting: @KaiaChain is laying the groundwork to make this a reality. $Kaia is building a modular L1 optimised for compliant Web3 infra in Korea. That means: ➪ Hooks for local fintechs to integrate KRW stablecoins ➪ Rails for dApps, wallets, payment processors ➪ Infra that aligns with Korea’s evolving stablecoin framework Just these should get you excited at the potential a KRW stablecoin will bring about! It’s a shot at replacing closed-loop points w programmable digital won - globally usable, locally compliant. And Kaia wants to be the chain that powers it all.
