Naver Financial to Launch ‘Silk Pocket’ Stablecoin Wallet in December

Published at 2025-11-25 14:45:56

Naver Financial has formally announced it will launch Silk Pocket, a stablecoin wallet service, in December 2025. The product is being developed with blockchain investment firm Hashed and represents a step by the internet giant into stablecoin custody and payments within its broader fintech push.

The rollout could accelerate mainstream stablecoin usage in South Korea by bringing crypto capabilities to a large existing user base, and the Hashed tie-up adds blockchain credibility to the project. Observers will watch regulatory responses and integration with Naver’s services, as the initiative may influence how domestic platforms approach digital-asset payments and on‑ramps moving forward.
