BTQ Selected as Core PQC Provider for South Korea’s First Bank-Led KRW Stablecoin Proof
BTQ has been chosen as the core post-quantum security provider for South Korea’s first bank-led KRW stablecoin proof-of-concept with iM Bank and Finger, deploying its QSSN framework. Built on Kaia mainnet connecting Kakao and LINE ecosystems, pilot will test real-time reconciliation, dual-signature PQC protections in regulated digital money infrastructure.
1. Selection for Stablecoin Proof-of-Concept
BTQ has been selected as the core post-quantum cryptography security technology provider for South Korea’s first bank-led KRW stablecoin initiative, partnering with iM Bank and Finger. The company will supply its Quantum Secure Stablecoin Settlement Network (QSSN) architecture and strategic advisory support to align security framework and implementation.
2. Kaia Mainnet Integration
The proof-of-concept is deployed on Kaia mainnet, the merged blockchain network of Kakao and LINE ecosystems, linking BTQ’s security layer to two of the region’s largest digital platforms. This integration aims to leverage established messaging and payments infrastructure for regulated digital money distribution.
3. QSSN Dual-Signature PQC Architecture
QSSN incorporates NIST-aligned post-quantum cryptography alongside existing ECDSA signatures to enable dual-signature validation without disrupting operational workflows. The design will validate real-time reconciliation between bank reserves and blockchain-issued tokens, issuance control, and future-proof quantum resilience.
