    Viewpoint: South Korea's stablecoin business may be reorganized around a "banking consortium" model
    Jinse Finance reported that, according to local information from the Bank of Korea (the central bank of Korea) in Hong Kong, the number of stablecoin issuer license applications received by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) since August this year has been lower than expected. The HKMA stated that as of the end of September, only 36 institutions had applied. This number is less than half of the 77 institutions that initially expressed interest. The Bank of Korea is also closely monitoring the case in Hong Kong. Even in Hong Kong, where capital flow controls are relaxed and there is no financial-industrial separation principle (“financial-industrial separation principle”), stablecoins still need to be managed under a strict regulatory framework. This situation will provide more substantial grounds for the Bank of Korea’s policy decisions. In response, some predict that the domestic stablecoin business in Korea is also highly likely to be reorganized with a “banking alliance at its core.” On the 20th, at the National Assembly’s state audit meeting, the Financial Services Commission of Korea and the Bank of Korea jointly stated that the issuer of the Korean won stablecoin should be an alliance centered on the banking industry. In response to the question from Democratic Party member Ryu Dong-soo, “Is it more appropriate to adopt an alliance form with bank participation when balancing innovation and stability?” Vice Chairman of the Financial Services Commission Kwon Dae-young replied, “I agree with this view.” The Bank of Korea also emphasized in its business report that it “supports this in principle” and pointed out that “it is necessary to issue (stablecoins) through a bank-centered alliance.”

    Multicoin Capital partner Kyle Samani: More optimistic about FHE compared to TEE and ZKP
    Jinse Finance reported that on October 23, Multicoin Capital partner Kyle Samani joined the recent heated privacy discussion in the crypto community by posting on X, stating that assets are more important than privacy. For 99% of people, the risks of volatility far outweigh the benefits brought by privacy. There are three main ways to achieve on-chain privacy: Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP), and Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). When considering which method is optimal, three variables are important: A. Permissionless; B. Ability to execute arbitrary DeFi; C. Scalability of algorithms and chips. However, TEE does not work in a permissionless environment, and B is exactly where ZKP fails. He cited the recently surging privacy project Zcash as an example: when you submit an anonymous Zcash transaction, this transaction is actually invisible and cannot interact with anyone else's assets, making DeFi impossible. FHE, on the other hand, allows computation on encrypted data, and privacy DeFi using FHE architecture is very straightforward. Therefore, he expressed that he is more optimistic about FHE.

    Japan Plans to Ban Banks and Insurance Companies from Selling Cryptocurrencies, Securities Firms May Be Permitted
    Jinse Finance reported that the Financial Services Agency of Japan is advancing a regulatory proposal for financial products, intending to prohibit banks and insurance companies from selling virtual currencies, while allowing securities firms and similar institutions to conduct virtual currency sales. Previously, the Financial Services Agency of Japan had already regarded virtual currencies as investment targets and has been exploring regulatory measures under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act. The agency believes that virtual currency prices are highly volatile and there is a risk of asset leakage due to cyberattacks, thus it is necessary to protect the interests of depositors and insurance policyholders. However, given that internet securities firms and other institutions are already engaged in virtual currency sales, from the perspective of fair competition, the Financial Services Agency of Japan has preliminarily decided to allow securities subsidiaries under banks or insurance companies to sell virtual currencies. The report also pointed out that "it is expected that only after risk management measures are fully established will the Financial Services Agency of Japan possibly approve banks or insurance companies to hold and operate virtual currencies." The Financial Services Agency of Japan plans to submit relevant legal amendments at next year's regular session of the National Diet.
