Kresus, a U.S.-based wallet and blockchain infrastructure company, has raised approximately KRW 18 billion (around $13 million) in a strategic investment from Hanwha Investment & Securities, one of South Korea’s major financial institutions, according to an announcement shared with Finbold on February 19.
The investment follows a memorandum of understanding signed by the two companies during Abu Dhabi Finance Week in December 2025 and is intended to support Kresus’ expansion in enterprise digital wallet infrastructure, real-world asset (RWA) tokenization platforms, and on-chain financial workflows.
Investment to support enterprise wallet and tokenization expansion
Kresus develops digital asset tools for both consumers and institutions, including seedless wallet recovery technology, MPC-based security systems, and enterprise-grade wallet and RWA tokenization platforms.
Hanwha Investment & Securities said it plans to use Kresus’ technology to strengthen its client-facing digital asset services and to develop real-world asset tokenization initiatives linked to its existing financial products.
Kresus stated that the new capital will be directed toward product development, enterprise deployments, and expanding global partnerships.
