The software developer Polaris Office has become the latest major South Korean company to get aboard the KRW-pegged stablecoin bandwagon. Scores of notable banks, fintech companies, and IT firms have already registered trademarks for Korean won stablecoin projects this month as Seoul prepares to roll out regulations. And per MTN News , Polaris Office has now followed suit by applying for trademarks for a coin named POLAKRW.
