South Korean banks are rapidly stepping up their crypto game, with Kookmin (KB), one of the biggest commercial banks in the country, co-creating a “digital asset management company” with a number of the nation’s leading blockchain players that will safeguard the Bitcoin (BTC) holdings of corporate customers such as crypto exchanges.
