CertiK and WEMIX Deepen Collaboration to Drive Web3 Security, Compliance, and Stablecoin Innovation in Korea
Seoul, South Korea, Oct. 22, 2025 – CertiK, a leading global provider of Web3 security services, and WEMIX, a prominent global Web3 gaming platform and Layer1 ecosystem, have solidified their strategic alliance. This collaboration aims to propel advancements in Web3 security, regulatory compliance, and stablecoin development within Korea.
At Korean Blockchain Week (KBW) 2025, a fireside chat took place featuring Professor Ronghui Gu, CertiK Co-Founder and CEO, and Shane Kim, CEO of WEMIX and Vice President of Wemade. The discussion centered on the future of blockchain security, the emerging threats posed by AI, and the evolution of stablecoin development. They emphasized how the combined strengths of CertiK’s verification technology and WEMIX’s extensive infrastructure are fostering a more secure and transparent Web3 ecosystem.
The continuous evolution of blockchain ecosystems inevitably leads to increased security requirements. Kim observed that despite the inherent security of Layer 1 blockchains, the expansion of infrastructure, services, and decentralized applications introduces new potential vulnerabilities. Professor Gu recounted that CertiK and WEMIX initiated their partnership in 2023 specifically to tackle these evolving security issues.
In the two years since, CertiK has conducted over 120 security audits for WEMIX, concurrently developing sophisticated monitoring frameworks designed to boost operational visibility and ensure system integrity. This extensive collaboration highlights CertiK’s capacity to adapt its technology stack for securing complex, real-world Web3 ecosystems.
Navigating one of the globe’s most stringent regulatory landscapes, WEMIX has utilized CertiK’s formal verification technology and compliance insights to uphold enterprise-level internal controls.
“Achieving a balance between rapid innovation and stringent compliance proved exceptionally difficult,” stated Kim. He added, “CertiK’s assistance enabled us to satisfy global audit standards while preserving the agility essential for Web3 expansion.”
CertiK’s “Elevate Your Web3 Journey” initiative persistently aids enterprises migrating from Web2 to Web3, providing strong compliance and security frameworks specifically adapted to Korea’s regulatory environment.
Professor Gu issued a warning about the swift increase in AI-generated scams, disclosing that “more than fifty percent of new tokens on prominent chains originate from bots with malicious intentions.” In response, CertiK’s latest AI-based behavioral analytics now monitor suspicious transaction groupings and identify exploit patterns instantaneously.
Confronting comparable difficulties within its gaming sector, WEMIX recently blocked upwards of 100,000 bot accounts in a single 24-hour period. Both firms are now jointly developing AI-powered defenses to safeguard token economies and uphold user confidence across decentralized ecosystems.
The two executives additionally addressed Wemade’s stablecoin project, STABLE ONE, which is backed by KRW and engineered for seamless interoperability and enterprise-level performance within Korea’s financial IT infrastructure.
Drawing upon its extensive experience with entities like Tether, Paxos, Ripple, and PayPal USD, CertiK guarantees that WEMIX’s stablecoin framework adheres to international compliance and technical benchmarks. Professor Gu commented, “Through the mathematical verification of stablecoin smart contracts, we can demonstrate compliance prior to deployment. This degree of assurance is crucial for stablecoin systems to achieve global scalability.”
Both companies reiterated their dedication to enhancing Korea’s Web3 infrastructure by prioritizing security, transparency, and trust.
