Pegatron Chairman Sees B2B, RWA Driving Taiwan Dollar Stablecoin

Stablecoins combine the price stability of fiat currency with blockchain-based settlement, offering potential gains in transaction speed and cross-border efficiency. Pegatron Chairman T.H. Tung said a New Taiwan dollar stablecoin should focus less on competing in everyday retail payments and more on business-to-business transactions and real-world asset tokenization, or RWA. Those uses could give Taiwan’s manufacturers and financial institutions a practical route into digital finance.

Tung recently identified B2B settlement and RWA as the two most promising areas for a New Taiwan dollar stablecoin, citing opportunities to improve corporate payments, asset liquidity and cross-border transactions. He also cautioned that Taiwan’s virtual-asset framework must balance financial oversight with market efficiency, privacy and individual freedom. The comments frame stablecoin development as infrastructure for businesses and tokenized assets rather than a race to replace existing consumer payment systems.
