PANews reported on September 22nd that South Korean blockchain technology company SOOHO.IO recently launched Project Namsan, an alliance initiative aimed at promoting the development of a South Korean won stablecoin ecosystem, with Chainlink participating as a key technical partner. The alliance has successfully launched a pilot application for foreign tourists as its first use case. Users can deposit US dollar stablecoins and receive digital South Korean won tokens for spending, at a 30% lower cost than traditional foreign exchange channels. SOOHO.IO and Chainlink previously partnered in 2024 to develop use cases for tokenized assets and central bank digital currencies in Asia, laying the foundation for this new partnership. Furthermore, SOOHO.IO's previous collaboration with the Bank of Korea on Purpose Bound Money (Purpose Bound Money) also laid the foundation for this alliance, leveraging a programmable approach to controlling the use of stablecoins. The Namsan Network is powered by the Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), enabling integration with multiple public and private blockchains. Chainlink also provides continuous verification of stablecoin reserves. This collaboration ensures that Korean won tokens are issued only after stablecoin settlement has been verified, creating a delivery-versus-payment (DvP) model that ensures transparency and reliability in the foreign exchange trading process.PANews reported on September 22nd that South Korean blockchain technology company SOOHO.IO recently launched Project Namsan, an alliance initiative aimed at promoting the development of a South Korean won stablecoin ecosystem, with Chainlink participating as a key technical partner.

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets.

The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
