South Korea’s stablecoin agenda is reshaping the nation’s investment landscape. Backed by President Lee Jae-myung’s crypto-friendly policies, retail investors are surging into digital assets at historic levels. A nationwide Hana Financial survey found that 27% of citizens aged 20–59 currently hold cryptocurrencies. Even more striking: 70% of all respondents plan to invest more within the next year.

This crypto mania isn’t just for the young. In the 40’s age group the largest percentage at 31% followed by 30’s and 50’s. Also seeing that in their 50’s makes up 78% of the participants that see crypto as a long term wealth solution. Within the scope of South Korea’s stablecoin agenda, this shift aligns well with retirement plans. This is a tell-tale sign of a change in the perception of crypto; it is out of the fringe finance world. It is becoming a mainstay as a reliable asset class.

While in many cases Korean men still put in twice the effort of women, improvement across the board in strategy. The number of users of dollar cost averaging grew from 10% to 34%. Medium term traders rose from 26% to 47%. What South Korea’s stablecoin agenda is doing is fueling much of the hype. It is also causing more sound investment decisions.

South Korea’s Stablecoins Agenda Targets Capital Flight

In Q1 2025 South Korea reported $40.6 billion in cross border crypto transfers. Almost half of it went into dollar backed stablecoins like USDT and USDC. To that end South Korea’s agenda for stablecoins includes putting forth won backed alternatives.

Stablecoin issuers must have $500M in equity. They need to get FSC go ahead and at the same time keep 1:1 reserves. Also the creation of national watch dogs like the Presidential Digital Asset Committee is underway. This structure goes beyond international organizations. It signals to the world that South Korea is out to take the lead in digital finance.

President Lee’s administration is also behind the push for crypto ETFs. The opening up of national pension funds to crypto is another step. The stablecoin issue is beyond innovation; it is a play for monetary sovereignty in the face of global economic change.

Markets See Great Gain as Stablecoin Policy Transforms Sentiment

South Korea’s stablecoin plan has already seen great success in the market. The KOSPI index is up almost 30% this year which is the best performance in Asia. Retail investors put in over ₩20.5 trillion in margin loans into the market which was led by fintech firms. This development is all part of South Korea’s stablecoin agenda which continues to influence market dynamics positively.
