South Korea Unveils Digital Asset Bill Allowing Stablecoin Issuance, Crypto Stocks Rally

South Korea’s Democratic Party on Tuesday proposed a bill to legalize the issuance of stablecoins by local firms, marking the first major crypto policy move under newly elected President Lee Jae-myung. The move triggered a surge in local crypto-linked stocks. KakaoPay Corp . climbed as much as 18% on Tuesday, its biggest jump in over a year, amid growing investor optimism that the government will back a won-based stablecoin initiative. The Digital Asset Basic Act, proposed by the ruling party, would allow local companies to issue stablecoins provided they meet a minimum capital requirement of 500 million won ($367,000) and guarantee redemptions through adequate reserves. The proposed legislation is designed to improve transparency and increase competition in the digital asset sector, according to party officials . The bill also calls for a Presidential Digital Asset Committee to oversee industry policy and introduces entry rules requiring approval, registration, and reporting to the Financial Services Commission. South Korea’s President Follows Through on Crypto Promises The proposal comes just a week after Lee, a progressive politician known for his pro-crypto stance, won the presidential election . His administration is moving swiftly to implement campaign pledges aimed at modernizing South Korea’s regulatory framework for digital assets. Still, the initiative faces pushback from the Bank of Korea, which has expressed concerns about non-bank entities issuing stablecoins. Governor Rhee Chang-yong has argued that such assets could undermine monetary policy, and insists the central bank should lead any effort involving a won-pegged digital currency. Under the proposed law, all asset-linked tokens, including stablecoins, would require approval from the Financial Services Commission, South Korea’s top financial regulator. South Korea edges closer to legalizing tokenized securities as President Lee takes office. Bills to enable STOs for real estate, art & more could soon pass amid bipartisan support. #SouthKorea #Crypto #Tokenization https://t.co/yYjlzqiRyh — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) June 6, 2025 South Korea Joins Race to Regulate Stablecoins South Korea under its new president has joined the race of other major nations moving fast to regulate fiat-pegged digital assets and the overall crypto industry.
