With 5 billion transactions in 2025, if this volume is migrated to on-chain, traditional banks should be feeling nervous.

From payment giant to on-chain finance, KakaoPay's transformation speed is faster than I imagined.

KakaoPay's move is quite significant. If the super wallet can really integrate stablecoins and tokenized assets, the landscape of Korean on-chain finance will change.

500 million offline transactions as a foundation, user habits have been formed, now going on-chain is a natural progression.

The concept of a super wallet sounds intimidating, but the key is whether it can seamlessly integrate with existing payment scenarios, and not end up as two fragmented apps.

The data from Shin Won-geun is interesting—it ranks among the top globally, and it looks like the kimchi premium isn’t only about Bitcoin.
