Shinhan Asset Management and Plume Team Up for Tokenized Fund Pilot

Resumen

South Korea's Shinhan Asset Management has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with blockchain network Plume to develop a pilot version of a tokenized fund denominated in Korean won. The pilot will use Shinhan's ultra-short-term bond fund as the underlying asset, with BlackRock's BUIDL tokenized fund serving as a model for issuance and distribution. The project aims to test the compliance of tokenized investment products, including operations like whitelisted transfers, on-chain activities, KYC, and AML measures. Shinhan stated the pilot will explore the use of won-denominated financial products in on-chain markets, which have traditionally focused on dollar-denominated assets. This initiative follows other Shinhan Group blockchain projects, such as Shinhan Card's partnership with the Solana Foundation for stablecoin payments and Shinhan Bank's 2023 pilot for cross-border stablecoin transfers.

South Korea's Shinhan Asset Management has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with blockchain network Plume, which specializes in tokenization, to develop a demonstration version of a tokenized fund denominated in Korean won.

The pilot project will use Shinhan's ultra-short-term won-denominated bond fund as the underlying asset, with BlackRock's tokenized fund BUIDL serving as a benchmark for testing issuance and distribution, Shinhan said on Friday.

The companies will also test regulatory compliance features for tokenized investment products, including transfers only between whitelisted addresses, on-chain operations, Know Your Customer (KYC) checks, and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) measures.

Shinhan stated that the pilot will validate the use of won-denominated financial products overseas—on on-chain markets that have primarily been built around dollar-denominated assets.

In April, Shinhan Card, part of the Shinhan Financial Group, signed an MOU with the Solana Foundation to test stablecoin payments and explore the use of non-custodial wallets. Another group company, Shinhan Bank, completed a pilot for cross-border stablecoin transfers in July 2023.

Bitcoin Price Drops to $62,470 as Sellers Retest $63,000 Support Level

Bitcoin's price fell below $63,000 for a second consecutive day on Friday, hitting an intraday low of $62,470. The cryptocurrency later recovered to trade just above $63,000, leaving it nearly flat for the past 24 hours and for August overall, with a weekly loss of 2.6%. The volatility triggered significant liquidations, with $26 million of leveraged long Bitcoin positions liquidated over 24 hours. Market sentiment was further dampened by data showing over $131 million in outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs for a second straight day, signaling a potential pullback by institutional investors. Adding to the negative pressure, index provider MSCI has proposed new criteria for "non-operating companies" in its global indexes, which could lead to the exclusion of firms holding significant digital assets like Bitcoin on their balance sheets. Companies such as Strategy and Metaplanet could be affected, potentially forcing index-tracking funds to sell their shares. Strategy publicly criticized the proposal, arguing digital assets are legitimate assets and index providers should not dictate what companies can own. Public consultations on MSCI's proposal end September 30, with a final decision expected by October 16. If approved, exclusions could begin in November, potentially triggering sustained institutional selling and damaging a key bridge for Bitcoin adoption in the corporate sector.
