In an effort to strengthen its position in the digital finance sector, South Korea is introducing an innovative solution in the form of the Bidan Jumeoni app. The project is carried out by three key players: the investment fund Hashed, Naver's financial division, and Busan Digital Asset Exchange. During the pilot testing phase, the app allows users to exchange foreign currency for the local stablecoin Dongbaekjeon, which is pegged to the Korean won and serves as the digital currency for the Busan region.



This initiative demonstrates the growing trend of implementing territorially anchored stablecoins backed by fiat reserves. Such solutions aim to optimize digital payments and confirm that South Korea is actively developing its own ecosystem of cryptocurrency and blockchain services tailored to the local financial market needs.
