Barclays Invests in Stablecoin Clearing Firm Ubyx to Advance Digital Money Strategy 
With new stablecoin rules and the approval of spot crypto ETFs including Bitcoin, South Korea is ready to revolutionize its digital asset environment in 2026. Stablecoin issuers will need permission under the "Digital Assets Second Phase Act," retain 100% reserves in secure assets like bank deposits, and guarantee user redemption rights to reduce risks observed in past failures. Cross-border transaction regulations will give bank-led consortia first priority, therefore settling earlier disagreements between the Financial Services Commission (FSC) and Bank of Korea (BOK), with major structures scheduled for Q1 implementation.
Recognizing Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as legitimate underlying assets following successful examples in the United States and Hong Kong, spot ETFs will be authorized this year. This change hopes to draw major institutional investments from businesses and pensions, therefore offering controlled crypto market access and improving investor protection via direct price tracking.
These changes point to South Korea's effort toward more bitcoin acceptance in the face of international rivalry as part of the bigger 2026 Economic Growth Strategy. Long-range goals include examining blockchain-based payments and "debt tokens" for treasury activities by 2030, which would help to place the nation at the front of incorporating digital assets into its financial system.
