The White House digital assets policy chief stated that digital assets and traditional finance will be integrated into a single financial system. He mentioned that now, with the market stabilized, is the right time to establish a regulatory framework to enhance investor protection in South Korea. Dunamu held the 'Upbit Institutional Summit (UIS) 2026' in Seoul on the 29th. During the event, Patrick Witte, the director, evaluated that digital assets can expand payment and financial accessibility while reducing inefficiencies in the existing financial system. He emphasized that digital assets and traditional finance will ultimately become part of a single financial system. Witte explained that the direction of the U.S. government's digital assets policy has not changed despite the lack of legislative progress on the Clarity Act. Regarding the institutional discussions in South Korea, he stated that the current stable market situation presents an opportunity to establish appropriate regulations. The event was attended by officials from the U.S. Treasury and financial authorities from major Asian countries, where discussions on the development of the digital asset market and regulatory directions took place.
