- BDACS launches KRW1, a stablecoin backed by the South Korean won.
- Woori Bank ensures full collateralization and transparent proof of reserves.
- KRW1 aims to revolutionize remittances, payments, and public-sector applications.
BDACS has already released a stablecoin on the South Korean won, KRW1, which is a significant move in the country’s digital asset market. The launch was successful after a proof of concept (PoC) that confirmed the stablecoin’s technical ability.
The milestone presents a complete ecosystem where fiat deposits, stablecoin issuance, and blockchain verification are integrated, making KRW1 a key element in South Korea’s emerging digital economy.
KRW1 was trademarked by BDACS in December 2023 and is intended to be the foundation of the company’s digital asset ecosystem. Through its go-to-market strategy, BDACS has established itself as the first mover in the fast-changing digital market in South Korea.
The business has created a sophisticated framework that consists of peer-to-peer transfers and an app to be used by the users, verification of the transactions, and a system of complete management.

BDACS’s collaboration with Woori Bank has been critical to the creation of KRW1. All the tokens of KRW 1 are fully covered by the South Korean won, which is held in escrow at Woori Bank, ensuring transparency and security.
The API integration of real-time banking also ensures verifiable demonstration of reserves, which increases the stability of the stablecoin and instills confidence in the users. Woori Bank’s direct interest also shows how instrumental a financial institution can be in the future of digital currencies.
To ensure scalability and reliability, BDACS chose the Avalanche blockchain for the issuance of KRW1. Avalanche is known for its high-performance capabilities, which make it stable and secure enough for institutions to use. This option highlights BDACS’s position to develop a flexible and future-oriented blockchain system.
Also, the collaboration with Ava Labs makes KRW1 more reputable in the digital asset market, making stablecoin a reliable future solution for adoption.
In the future, BDACS will increase the application of KRW1 in other fields, such as remittances, payments, and investments. The company’s other objective is to implement KRW1 in the public sector, including low-cost emergency relief disbursements.
KRW1 can simplify procedures and enhance efficiency by decreasing transaction costs. BDACS has also been actively pursuing the idea of collaboration to expand KRW1’s presence and role in South Korea’s digital ecosystem.
