Additionally, there are also plans to implement an all-new app-to-app payment system that will enable users to buy\/sell products without the use of credit or debit cards.<\/p>\n<p>As of now, FinTech companies like Toss and banks such as K Bank and Kakao have already started testing out the aforementioned technology, but there is no word as to whether the projects have been successful or not.<\/p>\n<h2>What does the future of crypto look like in South Korea?<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36714\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36714\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-36714\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/south-korea-ico-ban-social-300x158.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/south-korea-ico-ban-social-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/south-korea-ico-ban-social-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/south-korea-ico-ban-social-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/south-korea-ico-ban-social.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36714\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Related Story: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/south-korea-looking-repeal-ico-ban\/\">Is South Korea Looking to Repeal Its ICO Ban?<\/a>&#8220;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>South Korea along with Japan boasts of one the largest crypto markets in the world today.
