The Vancouver-based company will implement its Quantum Secure Stablecoin Settlement Network (QSSN) in collaboration with iM Bank and Finger Inc. The project aims to integrate quantum-resilient cryptography into a regulated KRW stablecoin on the Kaia mainnet. The proof-of-concept will evaluate real-time reconciliation between bank reserves and on-chain supply, along with smart contract design and overseas distribution. This initiative is a crucial step in countering quantum threats to digital currencies in Korea."

# BTQ Technologies Powers South Korea's First Bank-Led KRW Stablecoin Pilot

BTQ Technologies has been selected as the core post-quantum security provider for South Korea's first bank-led Korean won (KRW) stablecoin proof-of-concept, according to BeInCrypto. The Vancouver-listed firm will deploy its Quantum Secure Stablecoin Settlement Network (QSSN) across iM Bank's pilot infrastructure, working alongside local technology vendor Finger Inc. The project aims to embed quantum-resilient cryptography into a regulated KRW stablecoin on the Kaia mainnet, a Layer 1 network formed from the merger of Klaytn and Finschia. The proof-of-concept will test real-time reconciliation between bank reserves and on-chain supply, standardized smart contract design, and overseas distribution connectivity. BTQ is also providing strategic advisory support in the partnership with iM Bank and Finger. This initiative marks a significant step in addressing quantum threats to digital currencies and could influence Korea's broader migration timeline to quantum-safe financial infrastructure.
