That lineup matters because Ripple has already been building a much larger institutional footprint in Korea.
Kbank has been working with Ripple on blockchain-based overseas payments, including testing digital-asset infrastructure connected to international transfers.
Meanwhile, South Korea has also been exploring tokenized government bond settlement using Ripple infrastructure, pushing Ripple’s role beyond payments and into capital-market infrastructure.
Tokenization and DeFi Are Taking Center Stage
The official agenda is particularly notable for how institutional it has become.
A 30-minute panel will examine how traditional finance is adopting asset tokenization, followed by another session on the future of tokenized assets and a dedicated discussion on institutional DeFi built on XRPL.
Another session focuses specifically on $RLUSD and cross-border payments, while later panels cover institutional $XRP management and the future of $XRP and the $XRP Ledger.
Ripple has also been expanding its broader Asian tokenization stack through integrations such as Ripple Custody and SettleMint, giving regulated institutions infrastructure for issuing, custodying and managing tokenized assets.
