SINGAPORE, Nov. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, leading Korean gaming company WEMADE, parent company of the global blockchain ecosystem WEMIX, announced its partnership with blockchain powerhouses Chainalysis, SentBe, and CertiK to form the Global Alliance for Korean Won (KRW) Stablecoin (GAKS). The strategic partnership is set to strengthen the technical capabilities of StableNet, WEMADE's dedicated blockchain mainnet and infrastructure for KRW stablecoins, and drive adoption of the KRW stablecoin worldwide.
South Korea is fast becoming a leading advocate in the stablecoin sector, with rapid advancement in the building of stablecoin infrastructure and regulatory frameworks quickly taking shape. To meet the growing demand, WEMADE seeks to accelerate the development of KRW-backed stablecoin infrastructure that prioritises security, regulatory compliance, real-world use, and global scalability, through its newly-formed alliance of global giants.
Key highlights of the partnership include:
- Security and Compliance
- Chainalysis: The global leader in blockchain compliance will integrate its Web3 threat detection solution Hexagate, transaction monitoring solution Sentinel, and AI-based scam prevention solution Alterya into StableNet.
- CertiK: The world's largest Web3 security services provider will oversee security audits for StableNet and provide a block explorer to enhance the transparency and reliability of the infrastructure. CertiK will continue to offer node validation services to WEMADE, improving on-chain monitoring and mainnet technical support.
- Real-World Application
- SentBe: The leading overseas remittance fintech company provides remittance and payment services in 33 different currencies to 174 countries worldwide, recording an accumulated remittance volume of approximately $10 billion USD. Leveraging its Singapore Major Payment Institution (MPI) license and its capability to operate proprietary on/off-ramp infrastructure, SentBe will collaborate on verification processes around WEMADE's stablecoin-based cross-border remittance infrastructure.
Shane Kim, CEO, WEMIX, and VP, WEMADE, said: "This collaboration with international leaders is an incredibly significant milestone in securing the technical completeness of StableNet, and providing domestic partners with the opportunity to join a world-class technology alliance. With GAKS, we will present a new paradigm for the KRW-backed stablecoin beyond South Korea. We will concentrate our efforts on adhering to global standards, while establishing top-tier infrastructure that is truly indispensable in the wider financial ecosystem."
The official partnership signing ceremony and the launch of GAKS took place in Singapore. Following the ceremony, participants engaged in a fireside chat to discuss the future of the KRW stablecoin, global market trends, and infrastructure requirements.
CertiK Co-founder and CEO Ronghui Gu said: "CertiK and WEMADE have collaborated multiple times in the past, witnessing WEMIX's evolution from gaming into on-chain financial infrastructure. This partnership will deepen our collaboration and drive the development of a KRW-based stablecoin ecosystem. We look forward to leveraging CertiK's expertise in security and compliance to help Korea build a safe, transparent, and globally competitive digital asset infrastructure."
James Ang, VP, Chainalysis Asia Pacific, added: "The durability of any stablecoin ecosystem depends on uncompromising compliance, robust security, and complete transparency. By joining GAKS, Chainalysis is committed to ensuring that StableNet is built on a globally trusted compliance foundation from day one, capable of detecting threats, mitigating risk, and enabling safe adoption at scale. Together with WEMADE and our fellow alliance partners, we are laying the groundwork for a KRW stablecoin infrastructure that institutions, regulators, and users can rely on as it evolves into real-world financial and cross-border applications."
The testnet source code for StableNet was released publicly in October this year, with the testnet scheduled to be released in December, followed by its official launch in early 2026 after stability verification.
