Hashed Research CEO Appointed Chief Policy Officer at Korea's Presidential Office

South Korea's presidential office just handed the keys to crypto policy to Hashed Research's CEO—because nothing says 'blockchain adoption' like poaching talent from the private sector.

The move signals a potential shift from Seoul's historically cautious stance—or just another bureaucratic reshuffle dressed as innovation. Either way, the wonks at the Financial Services Commission just got some unwelcome competition.

Funny how governments suddenly want crypto expertise after spending years pretending it didn't exist—almost like they noticed those tax revenues slipping away to friendlier jurisdictions.
