This, according to Jinsol Bok, a Research Lead at the South Korea-based blockchain research firm Four Pillars.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bok, who goes by the username \u2018100y\u2019 on X (formerly Twitter), <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/100y_eth\/status\/2032110295150440585\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cautioned<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW stablecoins are actually quite likely to accelerate capital outflows, which is exactly what regulators are concerned about.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stressing that the problem isn\u2019t unique to South Korea, Bok added,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, for most countries, almost everywhere outside the U.S., removing FX (foreign exchange) controls and opening the financial system on-chain would likely lead to more capital outflow than inflow.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bok\u2019s argument mirrors the Standard Chartered Bank&#8217;s projection, with the same estimating that about $1 trillion could exit emerging markets into stablecoins by 2028 to hedge against local currency by holding dollar-pegged assets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides, the research analyst argued that most South Korean players, such as Kakao Pay, are already offering users yield on their digital balances. As such, there could be little incentive to suddenly embrace the KRW stablecoin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Bok, the only viable opportunity for the KRW stablecoin is faster cross-border settlement and fee optimization for service providers. In other words, retail and broader adoption of the products may be limited.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was a contrarian view of venture firm DWF Ventures, with the latter seeing the KRW stablecoin as a massive opportunity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>DWF bets on KRW stablecoins<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To some extent, Bok\u2019s arguments are plausible though. So far, most countries with record USD-based stablecoin adoption either have volatile local currencies or face significant currency devaluation. Nigeria and Iran are clear examples.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even so, some countries with developed banking and digital infrastructures have also seen strong adoption of the products. Especially for cross-border transfers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In particular, Asia leads global stablecoin activity, accounting for 60% of the $30 trillion annual volume, primarily through the China\/Hong Kong\/Singapore corridor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For DWF Ventures, South Korea\u2019s 18 million crypto holders and tech-savvy population would lead to natural adoption of the KRW stablecoin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The firm <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DWFVentures\/status\/2032003732008026369\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">added<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that USDT premium, and the so-called \u2018Kimchi Premium,\u2019 in which crypto assets trade relatively higher across South Korean exchanges, is another reason to hold the KRW stablecoin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This (Kimchi Premium) reflects a need for a KRW stablecoin that could potentially provide deeper liquidity on KRW pairs, while countering the dominance of USD stablecoins to stem capital outflows.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_579412\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-579412\" style=\"width: 1874px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-579412 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin.jpg\" alt=\"South Korea KRW stablecoin\" width=\"1874\" height=\"1052\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin.jpg 1874w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-1536x862.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-1280x720.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-960x540.jpg 960w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-640x360.jpg 640w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-320x180.jpg 320w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-160x90.jpg 160w, https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/South-Korea-KRW-stablecoin-1200x674.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1874px) 100vw, 1874px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-579412\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: CryptoQuant\u00a0<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The FSC is expected to finalize and publish the corporate crypto rules soon.
