Hanwha Financial Group to Partner with Standard Chartered for Exploring Stablecoin and Other Digital Asset Businesses

2 hours ago

On March 16, South Korea’s Hana Financial Group—a major financial conglomerate—signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Standard Chartered Group. The pair will partner on digital asset initiatives, including joint digital finance projects like stablecoins. Multiple South Korean media outlets report the pair aims to tap their global networks and fintech capabilities to explore new growth avenues bridging traditional and digital finance. Hana Financial Group Chairman Ham Young-joo noted the collaboration will carve out new growth opportunities in digital assets and the future of finance. Both firms have ramped up digital asset efforts in recent years. In 2023, Hana Bank partnered with crypto custody firm BitGo to build cryptocurrency custody services. In 2024, they co-founded BitGo Korea with SK Telecom, with Hana Group holding a 25% stake. Financial data shows Hana Financial Group posted a record net profit of over 40 trillion South Korean won (roughly $26.7 billion) in 2025. Standard Chartered, meanwhile, launched Bitcoin and Ethereum spot trading for institutional clients that year and rolled out digital asset custody services in Europe and Asia. Additionally, Standard Chartered Bank is poised to be among the first firms to secure a Hong Kong stablecoin issuance license.

A whale has gone long on EUR/USDC with a $1 million position, betting on a weakening dollar amid expectations of a Fed rate cut

**March 16 – Per HyperInsight monitoring, a whale wallet (starting with 0x133) opened a EUR/USDC long position on March 12 with 34x leverage, totaling ~$1.04M in position size. The average entry price was $1.148, and the position now faces ~10% unrealized loss.** From a macro standpoint, the long bet may stem from two key signals: U.S. February non-farm payrolls dropped by ~92k, while the unemployment rate ticked up slightly to 4.4% – pointing to a cooling labor market. Meanwhile, February CPI rose ~2.4% year-over-year, leading some to believe inflation has not rebounded. However, escalating U.S.-Iran geopolitical tensions have significantly slowed the Fed’s pace of rate cuts. The whale’s heavy investment now likely reflects a bet on marginal easing or de-escalation of the conflict. Markets are now turning their focus to the Fed’s interest rate decision, due early March 19.
