PANews reported on July 30th that, according to news1, as discussions regarding the Korean won stablecoin continue to heat up, the Bank of Korea recently established a new "Virtual Asset Group" and renamed the "Digital Currency Research Office" to the "Digital Currency Office" to strengthen its organizational structure. This adjustment aims to more effectively respond to the latest trends in central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and stablecoin issuance. The newly established Virtual Asset Group will be responsible for monitoring the market and legislative progress of virtual assets such as the Korean won stablecoin. The Digital Currency Office will be divided into two teams, Technology and Infrastructure, responsible for digital currency-related technology research and development and platform development, respectively. The Bank of Korea stated that it will continue to advance CBDC-related work and actively address the challenges posed by the development of private stablecoins.

BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
