Danal Fintech announced on February 10 that it has signed an MOU with U.S.-based AI technology company Sahara AI for strategic cooperation in the fields of stablecoins, payments, and finance, and will begin enhancing next-generation digital financial services.


Sahara AI is a global platform company aiming to build a decentralized AI ecosystem. It has secured investments totaling approximately 43 million dollars (about 63 billion won) from global top-tier investors such as Samsung Next, Binance Labs, Pantera Capital, and Polychain Capital, gaining recognition for its technological competitiveness and growth potential. Based on its collaboration network with global technology companies and major research institutions, including Microsoft, Amazon, and Snap, it is expanding a Web3-based AI economic ecosystem.


Through this agreement, Danal Fintech and Sahara AI will work to advance next-generation digital financial services by combining stablecoin-based financial infrastructure with AI technology. Danal Fintech will provide a stable payment and settlement infrastructure, while Sahara AI will contribute its AI technology capabilities, with the aim of creating mutual synergies. Furthermore, by integrating payment services into the recently spotlighted "AI agents," the two companies plan to solidify their leading position in the market.


The two companies will first jointly explore ways to enhance service efficiency and stability by applying AI technology across all aspects of stablecoin operations. Their strategy is to strengthen the reliability and scalability of stablecoin-based financial infrastructure through transaction flow analysis, operational automation, and more advanced risk management. They also plan to gradually expand their competitiveness in the market by promoting the expansion of a digital asset network targeting global markets.


In addition, they plan to carry out joint marketing for "Sorin," an AI crypto trading and asset management solution to be launched by Sahara AI. Through this, they intend to expand the global use cases of Paycoin (PCI) and improve user convenience in asset management, thereby gradually broadening the scope of AI technology utilization across payment and financial services.


A Danal Fintech representative said, "This agreement is a starting point for jointly exploring the potential of next-generation digital financial services that combine stablecoins and AI technology," adding, "We will lead the global market with innovative fintech services that integrate stablecoins and AI."



A Sahara AI representative said, "The convergence of financial infrastructure and AI technology is a key direction for the future AI economy and the digital finance industry," and added, "Through our collaboration with Danal Fintech, we will continue working to ensure that Web3-based AI technology can be applied in real-world financial services."
