Furthermore, the “Basic Policy on Economic and Fiscal Management and Reform 2026 (Basic Policy 2026),” approved by the Cabinet on July 21, 2026, clearly indicated the importance of promoting “on-chain finance” and “AI Transformation (AX).” The government’s definition of on-chain finance refers to “finance where fund settlements using stablecoins, etc., on the blockchain are linked and integrated with data management of commercial and logistics flows and other data through programs.”
