Diamond Hands Partners with Bitcoin Social Layer in South Korea to Strengthen Bitcoin Adoption Across Asia
Diamond Hands, Japan’s leading Bitcoin-focused business consultancy and community builder, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Bitcoin Social Layer (BSL), a grassroots initiative based in South Korea dedicated to expanding real-world Bitcoin usage.
This cross-border collaboration aims to accelerate Bitcoin education and adoption in Asia by combining the strengths of both organizations. BSL brings extensive experience in onboarding merchants for Bitcoin payments in South Korea, while Diamond Hands contributes deep local insight and years of experience driving Bitcoin awareness and business development in Japan.
Together, the two teams will carry out joint research on wallet usage, market needs, and job interest in the Bitcoin industry as the first collaboration.
These findings will help guide businesses and developers in building more effective tools and services. The partnership also seeks to support job creation and foster new business opportunities by connecting Bitcoin-accepting merchants with local communities and service providers.
The initial results of this collaboration will be presented at Bitcoin Seoul 2025, and merchant data will be updated regularly on btcmap.org, helping users discover Bitcoin-friendly businesses across both countries.
