Had a ton of fun moderating gigachads @eugene_avax @junkim @degenapeo @ekko_924 in my natural habitat @soohoio

[SOOHO.IO @soohoio]

Purpose-bound money isn't a whitepaper idea for us — we built it into Korea's CBDC pilot, and real-world payments are where we're taking it next, on @AvaCloud.

The design: vouchers that can't be resold, settlement enforced by the contract rather than an operator's promise, and purpose, region, and time all recorded onchain.

A glimpse of what programmable settlement could look like.

[AvaCloud @AvaCloud]

Korea's 33T KRW voucher market runs on bearer certificates, infrastructure that hasn't changed since gift certificates were physical.

Merchants completing sales and waiting weeks to get paid isn't a bug. It's how the system was designed.

https://t.co/5uzJaeP3xF rebuilt the settlement layer on AvaCloud ⤵️

Smart contracts enforce purpose restrictions, vouchers can't be resold

Merchant settlement triggers automatically at redemption

Every transaction recorded onchain, not by operator promise

40,000+ transactions. 30-50% lower settlement costs.

[SOOHO.IO @soohoio]

Key takeaways:

1. B2B is the growth engine of real-world stablecoin payments

2. Emerging markets → USDT/Tron; regulated & institutional → USDC/L2. Dual-track settlement design is the playbook

[SOOHO.IO @soohoio]

Stablecoins are becoming the settlement rail for businesses.

SOOHO tracked on-chain data via @AlliumLabs : B2B stablecoin payment volume hit ~$95.0B YTD (Jan–Jun 23, 2026) — up +60.0% YoY.

A thread on where the money actually moves 🧵

[SOOHO.IO @soohoio]

The rails are concentrated, but the regulated layer is splitting.

Tron/USDT dominates B2B at $73.4B (~77%).
USDC is spread across L2s — Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum.

Team #México just scored but we still love you guys. Now onto the second half

🎯 THE TAKEAWAY

As stablecoins expand to card issuers, AI agents & exchanges, payment pilots are accelerating

Hardening opsec at the same pace as institutionalization is the deciding factor.

💳 PAYMENTS — Stablecoin checkout, live

E-commerce firm Popop completed a stablecoin payment PoC with Vitoz. Validators included Hana Financial TI, Lignex, and Modetour.

Translation: stablecoin settlement has entered the pilot stage in online commerce. https://t.co/PDfHbS154P

Honored to have hosted the "Stablecoins in the AI Agent Era" panel at the 2nd Seoul Economic Daily Stablecoin Forum, part of #BitcoinSeoul 2026 — moderated by our CEO Jisu Park @jisu_soohoio .A real privilege to share the stage with such brilliant minds:

🔹 Niki Ariyasinghe — VP, APAC & Middle East, @chainlink
🔹 Minkang Huh — KB Financial Group
🔹 Byungha Kang — Meritz Securities
🔹 Minseop Yun — Bithumb

Together they explored whether AI agents paying and settling on their own — machine-to-machine (M2M) payments — is reality or future.

The takeaway: the tech is here, the biggest hurdles are regulatory, and Korea is better positioned than most think.

Grateful for a sharp, candid conversation. Thank you to everyone who joined.

https://t.co/g7sCfd6WLe has been selected as a participating company in Korea's national R&D project to build a "Freight Vehicle Weight Information Platform."

We'll develop a blockchain-based platform that connects and distributes freight data scattered across land and ports. Powered by a high-performance oracle and DID-based identity verification, it securely shares weight data generated in different environments and ensures the reliability of every record.

The project will be carried out in stages with partners including Korea Expressway Corporation, marking https://t.co/g7sCfd6WLe's expansion into public-sector data infrastructure.
