PARAMETA Signs Strategic Partnership with Hana Tech, a Global Stablecoin Wallet  Provider

– Joint Research on DID-based Next-generation KYC Model and Global Stablecoin Payment Infrastructure –



September 26, 2025, Seoul – Web3 enabler PARAMETA Corp. (formerly ICONLOOP, CEO Jonghyup Kim) announced that it has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with HanaTech (CEO Mark Jones), the provider of the global stablecoin “ service HanaWallet. Through this agreement, the two companies will jointly research and develop a next-generation KYC-based stablecoin model and stablecoin debit card infrastructure.

HanaWallet is a Web3 wallet company offering multi-chain digital asset management and stablecoin debit card services. Hana Wallet users can instantly convert Bitcoin, Ethereum, Stellar, Stablecoins and thousands of other tokens straight from their phone to a virtual card - ready to use anywhere Mastercard is accepted. Currently expanding rapidly in Australia, HanaWallet allows users to spend stablecoins in everyday scenarios such as hotels, shopping, and daily purchases powered by Immersve.

Under the agreement, PARAMETA and HanaWallet will collaborate on three key areas:

• Validation of a next-generation KYC-based stablecoin model
• Global proof-of-concept (PoC) of stablecoin debit card services
• Exploration of expansion into KRW-based stablecoin services in Korea

The collaboration is driven by the current landscape in Korea, where discussions around issuing and adopting KRW stablecoins are accelerating, yet concrete technical requirements remain underdeveloped. In particular, there is a pressing need to present practical models for KYC and AML compliance.

The next-generation KYC-based stablecoin model differs from the conventional approach in which banks or exchanges, as centralized institutions, directly verify and manage users’ blockchain wallets on each network. Instead, users undergo KYC once to receive a Decentralized Identifier (DID), after which they can simply add wallets that can be reused across multiple networks and services. This approach reduces redundant processes, enhances efficiency, and ensures scalability across multi-chain environments.

In addition, the global PoC for stablecoin debit cards will leverage HanaWallet’s already operational infrastructure in Australia to practically validate the implementation and operation of stablecoin-based debit cards. The project is also expected to provide a foundation for assessing their potential application in the Korean payments market.

PARAMETA CEO Jonghyup Kim stated “This partnership represents a key opportunity to validate both real-world stablecoin payments and next-generation KYC innovation. Together with Hana Wallet, we aim to closely collaborate to bring KRW-based stablecoin debit cards and DID-driven KYC models to the Korean market in the near future.”

Mark Jones, CEO of HanaTech, said “Partnering with PARAMETA allows us to validate a new model that combines DID-based KYC with stablecoin payment infrastructure. With Hana Wallet’s live stablecoin backed debit card already operating across Australia, this collaboration will demonstrate how such services can scale globally, including the Korean market. We see this as a foundation for broader institutional engagement and a next step toward mainstream adoption of stablecoin payments.”
