South Korea to move stocks and bonds onto blockchain from 2027

  • FSC will launch tokenized securities markets from February 2027
  • Phase 1: private corporate bonds and money market funds
  • Phase 3: settlements via stablecoins and DeFi products
  • Jeonbuk Bank has already replaced SWIFT with Ripple's blockchain
Why it matters: Tokenization of traditional South Korean assets could generate major institutional demand for the XRP Ledger and accelerate the shift of markets to round-the-clock trading.
