As South Korea’s financial holding companies compete to roll out integrated apps, Shinhan Financial Group is reportedly moving ahead with plans to add a “coin wallet” feature.

According to industry sources on the 24th, Shinhan Financial Group plans to completely revamp its existing “Shinhan Super SOL” and launch a group-wide integrated app in June. It is also reviewing a plan to add a coin wallet function after stablecoins are legally recognized. The move aims to expand capabilities so users can access not only banking transactions but also investment and virtual-asset-related services within a single app.

Meanwhile, observers say that if a stablecoin wallet function is added, it could enable a structure in which users can buy stablecoins immediately using funds in their bank accounts.
