BlockBeats News, January 14th - KB National Card, a subsidiary of South Korea's largest financial group KB Financial Group, has applied for a patent for innovative payment technology, allowing users to make payments with a stablecoin using their existing credit card. This hybrid payment system links the user's blockchain wallet to their credit card, prioritizing the use of the stablecoin in the wallet for payments and automatically supplementing any insufficient balance with the credit card.


KB Financial Group stated that this technology preserves the existing card payment infrastructure and user experience while lowering the barrier to entry for digital asset payments, promoting the mainstream adoption of stablecoins in finance.
