South Korea is becoming a hub of domestic cryptocurrency usage. A recent study on SK reveals that 9.6 million residents in the region are using digital assets for domestic usage by 2024.&nbsp;Published reports say that the adoption rate has increased by 52.6% over time, which clearly mirrors the growth of such products in South Korea.
