๐ฐ๐ EIOB News by Hankyung @hankyungmedia | โVenezuelaโs Broken Economy โฆ UN-Backed Stablecoin Project Aims at Reconstructionโ | September 8, 2025
๐ Key Highlights:
๐ข The Venezuelan economy has been devastated by decades of populist policies, currency collapse, hyperinflation, and institutional breakdown.
๐ข Through the โSPO (Stablecoin Platform Operation)โ initiative, UNDP has selected the Korean deep-tech company EIOB to build blockchain infrastructure in Venezuela.
๐ข Instead of giving local currency that has lost value, aid will be disbursed using stablecoins pegged to the U.S. dollar. This is meant to preserve value for recipients in the face of rampant inflation.
๐ข Several UN agencies that already operate in Venezuela (like UNHCR, FAO, WFP) are involved. The aim is to transform stablecoins into a public good infrastructure for global NGOs, companies, academic institutions, etc.
๐ข Beyond Venezuela, the article notes that stablecoin interest is rising worldwide, with governments and regulators in nations such as the U.S., China, Japan, and the EU actively considering or developing their own stablecoin frameworks.
๐ข In Korea, too, there is momentum: banks, fintech firms, and others are exploring the implementation of a KRW-based stablecoin, while regulators are emphasizing the need for safeguards and oversight.
