XRP Seoul 2026 Conference Kicks Off with Institutional Heavyweights

The XRP community is abuzz with excitement as the XRP Seoul 2026 conference gets underway at the Grand Hyatt Seoul as part of Korea Blockchain Week. The event, which kicked off today, October 3, is expected to draw over 3,000 attendees and 100 firms, with a heavy focus on real-world asset tokenization, stablecoins, institutional finance, and decentralized finance. For XRP holders, this conference is one of the most anticipated events of the year.

The speaker lineup carries significant institutional weight, with Ripple President Monica Long and RippleX Senior Vice President Marcus Infanger headlining the event. South Korean financial institutions are also well-represented, with senior representatives from Woori Bank, Kakao Bank, Kyobo Securities, and Kbank taking the stage.

Ripple has made significant strides in South Korea this year, with partnerships with major institutions such as Kyobo Life Insurance, Kbank, and Jeonbuk Bank. These partnerships have paved the way for tokenized bond infrastructure and institutional digital asset wallet infrastructure. With XRP already having a dominant presence in South Korea, the community is eagerly anticipating the conference's potential impact on the asset's price.
