According to Danal Fintech on June 22, the company and BNK Busan Bank successfully completed the second phase of proof-of-concept (PoC) testing for a Korean won-denominated stablecoin platform. The testing validated the stablecoin's capability to function as a payment method with production-grade transaction speed and stability.
The Phase 2 PoC addressed limitations from Phase 1 by deploying a dedicated Avalanche subnet instead of the public C-Chain, achieving significant improvements: transaction response time decreased from an average of 2 seconds to 0.3 seconds, concurrent transaction stress tests completed without failure, and transaction fees were substantially reduced. Danal Fintech plans to conduct Phase 3 PoC focusing on account integration and offline connectivity, with commercialization to follow upon regulatory framework completion.
