  • Chainlink Labs will provide strategic support on technical standard establishment and infrastructure enhancement based on global market expertise, as well as opportunities for alliance members to leverage the Chainlink platform for key tokenized asset use cases.
  • Following the recent additions of Chainalysis, CertiK, and SentBe, Chainlink Labs’ inclusion strengthens the security, transparency, and reliability of the KRW stablecoin alliance’s infrastructure.

SINGAPORE, Jan. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, leading Korean gaming company WEMADE, parent company of the global blockchain ecosystem WEMIX, announced that Chainlink Labs, one of the primary contributing developers of Chainlink, the industry-standard oracle platform, has officially joined the Global Alliance for Korean Won (KRW) Stablecoin (GAKS).

Launched in November 2025, GAKS is an alliance formed to expand real-world usage of KRW-backed stablecoins, including the assurance of global regulatory compliance with Korean financial standards. With Chainlink Labs providing strategic support, WEMADE will enhance its competitiveness in the global market and accelerate the establishment of a trusted KRW stablecoin ecosystem.

Chainlink is the leading oracle platform for the digital asset industry, powering the convergence of the traditional financial system with on-chain finance. Many of the world’s largest financial institutions have adopted the Chainlink standard and infrastructure—including Swift, UBS, Euroclear, Mastercard, and Fidelity International—while also bringing key data from the U.S. Department of Commerce on-chain, demonstrating its industry leadership with governments and major financial institutions worldwide. Chainlink’s work with these organizations and market infrastructures, as well as its role in powering the majority of DeFi, makes its expertise an extremely valuable addition to the KRW stablecoin alliance.

Through the GAKS alliance, Chainlink Labs will provide strategic support to enable the establishment of global standards and contribute to the development of institutional digital asset use cases across our set of enterprise alliance members. Chainlink will also play a pivotal role in ensuring that KRW stablecoins maintain data integrity and stability aligned with global financial market standards.

With the addition of Chainlink, GAKS has now assembled a comprehensive alliance spanning security, regulatory compliance, fintech, and data infrastructure, following previous partnerships with Chainalysis, a blockchain data analytics and compliance firm CertiK, a blockchain security audit firm SentBe, a global fintech and international remittance company, and now Chainlink, the industry-standard oracle platform.

WEMADE is accelerating real-world use cases for KRW stablecoins through alignment with global regulatory compliance and collaboration with industry-leading specialized firms, establishing technical standardization and a trusted ecosystem aligned with GAKS’s vision.

Shane Kim, VP of WEMADE and CEO of WEMIX, said: “Chainlink’s participation marks a significant milestone for GAKS in securing global-level technical excellence and trust. Through close collaboration with Chainlink, we will continue to build a sound KRW stablecoin ecosystem.”

Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, added: “WEMADE and the GAKS alliance are building critical infrastructure for the next phase of digital assets in Korea. Through the strategic alliance with WEMADE, Chainlink is providing industry expertise and key opportunities for GAKS members to leverage the Chainlink platform as they continue to develop stablecoin and tokenized asset initiatives in the Korean and APAC region.”

WEMADE has released a recording of a Fireside Chat featuring GAKS alliance members on its official YouTube channel.

REX-Osprey DOJE ETF Launch Drives Dogecoin Surge to $0.28

REX-Osprey DOJE ETF Launch Drives Dogecoin Surge to $0.28

The post REX-Osprey DOJE ETF Launch Drives Dogecoin Surge to $0.28 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. DOJE ETF Offers Direct Spot Exposure to Dogecoin In a press release, REX-Osprey announced the launch of the first-ever publicly traded ETF to provide exposure to Dogecoin (DOGE). The latest fund is the REX-OspreyDOGE ETF (CBOE: DOJE), an innovation in the cryptocurrency market. It is a unique exchange-traded fund (ETF) that offers direct spot exposure to Dogecoin, which has gained legendary popularity due to its Shiba Inu mascot and fan base of Shiba Inu followers. The introduction of the DOJE ETF is revolutionary for several reasons. It is the first ETF in the United States that provides investors direct access to the spot price of Dogecoin, a widely known cryptocurrency, which lacks inherent utility. This provides a controlled and smooth method for people to invest into DOGE through a regular brokerage account. Using this new product, REX-Osprey remains on the edge of digital asset integration into the regulated financial frameworks. Greg King, CEO of REX Financial and Osprey Funds, expressed his pride in this achievement: “Investors look to ETFs as trading and access vehicles. The digital asset revolution is already underway, and to be able to offer exposure to some of the most popular digital assets within the protections of the U.S. ’40 Act ETF regime is something REX-Osprey™ is proud of and has worked diligently to achieve.” SSK’s Success Sets the Stage for DOGE ETF Launch The DOJE ETF follows the successful launch of REX-Osprey’s SOL + Staking ETF (SSK) in July 2025. This fund became the first-ever U.S.-listed ETF to offer spot Solana exposure alongside on-chain staking rewards. Since its launch, SSK has been a significant success, accumulating over $275 million in assets under management. REX-Osprey has now expanded its crypto offerings with the addition of both DOGE and XRP ETFs, offering investors more opportunities to diversify their…
