South Korea is still lagging behind in regulation, while Japan has companies leading the promotion of bitcoin investment, and whether Asian countries will include bitcoin as a national strategic asset in the future will become the focus of market attention. Bitcoin as a national reserve? South Korean financial experts and opposition politicians attended a seminar held by the main opposition Democratic Party in the National Assembly last Wednesday to discuss the feasibility of bitcoin as a national reserve and recommend that the government actively study the issuance of a Korean won stablecoin. According to the Korea Herald, the discussion focused on the recent bitcoin reserve policy in the United States and analyzed possible countermeasures in South Korea. It is worth noting that the day after this seminar, former US President Trump signed an executive order to officially launch the US Bitcoin Reserve Program, further deepening the global discussion on digital assets and national strategies. Kim Jong-seung, CEO of blockchain company xCrypton, bluntly said at the conference: South Korea must respond to global changes with more active and clear policies." He stressed that in addition to exploring the possibility of bitcoin as a reserve asset, the South Korean government should also promote the won stablecoin to ensure that it does not fall into the dollar-dominated framework in the digital economy era. He said: "If the dollar stablecoin continues to monopolize the market, we may lose monetary sovereignty in the digital age. We need to create a mechanism that can link the won stablecoin with the dollar stablecoin to make trade transactions more flexible. Backward supervision, South Korea can only passively catch up? Congressman Kim Min-seok, head of the Democratic Policy Readiness Committee, said: If the Democratic Party can return to power, it will push for a comprehensive adjustment of the cryptocurrency regulatory framework. Min Jung, an analyst at Presto Research, is also concerned about the current policy progress: South Korea's regulations have been slow, and companies have only recently been approved to open cryptocurrency trading accounts, but Bitcoin and Ether ETFs are still not allowed. He said bluntly: At present, it seems that South Korea's policy is only passively catching up with global trends, rather than actively setting the future direction of digital finance. Simon Gerovich, CEO of Metaplanet, a Japanese listed company, publicly called on Japan to follow the example of the United States and establish a national bitcoin reserve, and even proposed the idea of building Japan into a "global bitcoin superpower". Gerovich revealed that Metaplanet has recorded a 45.1% return on its bitcoin investments so far this year, and the company currently holds a total value of about $240.2 million in bitcoin with an average purchase price of about $83,172. Bitcoin opportunity fleeting? In his post, Gerovich stressed that he worries every day that he does not hold enough bitcoin, because "the market will not always give you opportunities, and sooner or later the world will be divided into two types of people - those who own bitcoin and those who regret not buying it." Metaplanet has aggressively bought bitcoin in recent years, Gerovich said: "The company is working to accumulate as much bitcoin as possible before the market window closes, ensuring that shareholders can profit from this strategy." 日本も世界のビットコイン超大国にしよう! — Simon Gerovich (@gerovich) March 8, 2025 Related Reports Trump White House Crypto Summit: Reiterating Bitcoin Reserve Executive Order "Only Mention 1 Update", BTC Drops 85,000 Magnesium Microstrategy Michael Saylor: Can provide a "zero-cost" strategy to increase Bitcoin reserves; Grok also gave advice to Paul Krumman: Trump's Bitcoin reserves are the biggest Rug scam in history, and cryptocurrencies are doomed casinos for retail investors "Trend View" South Korea and Japan actively deploy Bitcoin!
