Dunamu, which operates the digital asset exchange Upbit, announced on February 11 that it is recruiting participants for the “Senior Online Financial Education Challenge with the Financial Supervisory Service and Upbit: Financial Golden Bell” (hereinafter “Senior Financial Golden Bell”) to strengthen the digital financial capabilities of the senior generation.
This year’s program will be conducted together with the Financial Supervisory Service during the “Global Money Week” (held annually around the fourth week of March), organized by the International Network on Financial Education (INFE) under the OECD. It focuses on helping seniors build a foundation for economic independence and preventing financial crimes such as voice phishing.
This event is open to anyone aged 50 or older. Prospective participants can apply through the Senior Financial Education Council website from February 11 to 26, 2026. For the first 1,200 confirmed participants, a YouTube lecture link will be sent along with learning materials on February 27, 2026, and they will be able to study, at their own pace, a curriculum covering financial information and investment, pensions, financial fraud prevention, digital assets, and financial consumer protection for about two weeks from March 3 to 16, 2026. The Golden Bell event will be held a total of four times from March 17 to 19, 2026 via the video conferencing platform Zoom. Among high performers, a total of 300 people will receive Shinsegae gift certificates and coffee vouchers, including 500,000 won for first place, 300,000 won for second place, and 100,000 won for third place.
