Happy Friday!

Today marks the 100th Anniversary of South Korea’s March 1st Independence Protests, which is now also honored as a national holiday. Amidst the holidays, our global team continues to help to shape the stablecoin industry as we drive forward milestones for KRWb, the world’s first and only KRW fiat backed stablecoin.

Full KRWb Exchange Listing Recap

We’ve spent the first few weeks post-launch focusing on price stability, and organically building a viable marketplace where KRWb can be acquired via KRW, BTC, USDT, ETH, USD and more. Below is an overview of the current KRWb trading markets available.

KRWb live trading on ABCC, BEQUANT, Coblic, Fordex and AirSwap

Next week we also plan to add another domestic Korean exchange to this list!

KRWb in the Media

Our CEO, Hwan Kim, was invited to one of Korea’s economic TV shows to discuss the topic of stablecoins, and our objectives for KRWb. The show was broadcast live on cable TV in Korea, and was also recorded for those who missed it (unfortunately in Korean only):

Community Support: Connecting with Korean Projects

Due to the high price volatility of most cryptocurrency, most project now prefer to convert their raised capital or company treasury into fiat currency, or stablecoins. We strongly believe KRWb’s value proposition is uniquely positioned to support Korean-based projects. Korean projects who prefer to denominate in KRW (to avoid F/X complications) or need easy access to KRW for paying salaries, bills, etc. should reach out to our team.

Join the official KRWb Telegram channel to connect directly with our team.
