COINOTAG News, citing CoinDesk on December 22, reports that the JPYC stablecoin issuer has teamed with ITCEN GLOBAL, a major South Korean technology conglomerate, to conduct stablecoin research and explore cross-border opportunities between Japan and South Korea.

The partners will share policy insights and practical data to lay the groundwork for future cross-border stablecoin movement and asset tokenization initiatives.

ITCEN GLOBAL reports roughly 5 trillion won in annual revenue and advances the gold-focused RWA project K-Gold through its Korda subsidiary, which pursues RWA and STO activities in Japan.

Industry observers say the collaboration could enhance regulatory clarity and help establish scalable settlement rails for crypto assets, supporting RWA tokenization and related cross-border payments.
