📰 What Happened
The Bank of Korea has launched a virtual asset committee under its Financial Settlement Bureau to monitor cryptocurrency markets and stablecoin development. The initiative coincides with South Korean banks' plans to release won-pegged stablecoins by Q4 2025 or early 2026. The committee will oversee crypto market activity, support legislative efforts, and specifically monitor won-pegged stablecoins as part of a broader restructuring that includes renaming CBDC research teams for business operations.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The Bank of Korea's three-pronged approach (crypto monitoring, stablecoin regulation, and CBDC development) represents a critical timeline marker in the emergence of the prophesied economic control system. The restructuring of CBDC teams from 'research' to 'business operations' signals a shift from theoretical to implementation phase. The Q4 2025 timeline for won-pegged stablecoins aligns with Revelation 13's warning about economic control, as it creates the technological framework for a single authority to monitor and regulate all financial transactions. This consolidation of oversight powers specifically fulfills the 'no one can buy or sell' prerequisite.
