Fusion42 · 4 October 2026 · Fusion42 review

South Korean banks like Woori Bank are actively building XRP custody infrastructure with regulated local partners, moving beyond token investment to operational integration for institutional clients amid growing demand signaled by US XRP ETFs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.
