Samsung to Distribute Stablecoins to 800M Galaxy Phones

Samsung plans native stablecoin support for 800M devices, leveraging existing 19M user base in Korea and global reach across 61 countries.

Woofun AI reports that Samsung intends to integrate native stablecoin functionality into Samsung Wallet, targeting its installed base of over 800 million Galaxy smartphones. The initiative includes fiat-pegged savings and payment accounts, with SDS and Dunamu providing the underlying infrastructure. Samsung aims to deploy both USD and KRW stablecoins simultaneously. Joseph Goh, Head of Areta's Asia-Pacific region, emphasized that distribution channels represent a scarce resource, noting that Samsung’s network provides a distinct advantage in stablecoin dissemination. Samsung Wallet currently serves nearly 19 million users in South Korea and operates across 61 countries.
