Stacks Ecosystem in Asia
The Foundation's first institutional program is in active stakeholder discussion, while regional ecosystem and community programs continue across Asia.
Events, education and social programs across Korea, China and Hong Kong, and the Middle East. These are the relationships the institutional work grows out of.
Testing regulated digital infrastructure that plugs into existing banks and payment rails.
Institutional proposals are discussion-stage architectures subject to regulatory, legal and partner approval. Neither assumes a public stablecoin, replacement of local banks or bypass of foreign-exchange controls.
Community and institutional work look different in each market, so we lean on local supporters and advisors in each region. Our ecosystem work across the region continues alongside the institutional program.
We attend key conferences across Asia, connect with local community, and host private, invite-only institutional activations.
We use blockchain when it settles, reconciles or audits better than conventional rails. If it doesn't, we use conventional rails.
Each initiative starts with the economic and regulatory objective. We pick the technology after.
