Korean gaming major WEMADE has expanded its presence in the blockchain sector by partnering with Web3 security leader CertiK to establish the Global Alliance for Korean Won Stablecoin, known as GAKS. CertiK representatives traveled to Singapore to participate in the official launch event, which was organized under WEMADE’s leadership.
The alliance includes several other prominent global organizations, among them Chainalysis and SentBe, and aims to broaden the worldwide reach of the KRW stablecoin ecosystem. Members of GAKS intend to work collectively to enhance global adoption and technical readiness for KRW-backed digital currencies.
Strengthening Security and Infrastructure for StableNet
As part of the agreement, CertiK will take on the role of providing extensive security audit services for StableNet, WEMADE’s dedicated blockchain mainnet supporting KRW stablecoins. This mainnet is described as Korea’s first purpose-built infrastructure designed to manage all stages of the stablecoin lifecycle.
CertiK will also assist in improving the blockchain explorer used for StableNet, enhancing transparency, oversight, and overall reliability for users and developers. Alongside this, the company will continue offering node validation services to WEMADE, which is expected to advance on-chain monitoring and strengthen the technical stability of the mainnet.
WEMADE, recognized as a major Korean game publishing and development firm, has spent the past few years integrating blockchain solutions into its gaming ecosystem. Through its WEMIX Web3 platform, the company has been promoting the tokenization of digital assets and enabling value transfer within blockchain gaming. The creation of GAKS is positioned as part of its mission to boost the technical foundation of StableNet while accelerating the establishment of a worldwide stablecoin ecosystem.
CertiK Expands Commitment to the Korean Web3 Market
CertiK, regarded globally as the largest Web3 security services provider, continues to view Korea as one of its key growth regions. The company has maintained ongoing collaborations with several Korean blockchain players, including WEMIX.

Earlier in the year, CertiK held a visible presence at Korea Blockchain Week, where it released a security study centered on the Korean market and discussed plans to scale its local team to support the country’s expanding Web3 landscape.
During the GAKS launch, WEMADE’s leadership emphasized that the alliance was created to unite top global firms in building both the underlying technology and real-world service layers for stablecoins. They noted that the company intended to devote its resources toward meeting international standards while positioning StableNet as a premier KRW stablecoin infrastructure.
CertiK’s leadership conveyed that the collaboration between the two companies had already evolved significantly, transforming WEMIX from a gaming-focused ecosystem into a broader on-chain financial framework. They suggested that the new partnership would help accelerate the development of a stronger, more secure KRW-based stablecoin system. CertiK also indicated its intention to use its compliance and security expertise to contribute to a transparent and globally competitive digital asset environment in Korea.
Building a Competitive Global Asset Ecosystem
Both organizations plan to form a long-term strategic framework covering mainnet support, stablecoin infrastructure development, and security and compliance enhancements. Their shared objective is to promote wider adoption of KRW stablecoins in sectors such as payments, trading, and cross-border financial activity.
Through their efforts, WEMADE and CertiK aim to build a robust, secure, and efficient digital asset ecosystem that strengthens Korea’s position in the global blockchain economy while expanding the international presence of KRW-backed digital currencies.
