I don't subscribe to fact that kakao is one of the most used chatting application, this messaging app has 80% of it users based in Asia with the remaining 20% from other countries who understands some part of asian languages. Although this is a great steps from kakao developers but I believe cryotocurrency is meant to be for everyone but limiting it to one part due to language barriers is not so good.

One of the most popular? I don't think so and the hype of this messenger is over.I've actually tried this out in previous years but I decide
to make use another messaging app.About the integration of crypto wallet, its a good sign of adoption but wondering if there are still
people who do make use of this stuff.

It is still unclear how everything gonna work. Large companies are less likely to issue a cryptocurrency with a free price.
The other thing is that they may use their own blockchain without a chance to use their currency outside their messenger. Then it will cause no influence on the rest of crypto cimmunity.

This is too normal. Some electronic applications always need quick payments without the need for credit cards.
I really enjoyed this. Sometimes I want to use an app service but I have to provide a Visa or MasterCard. But I'm too small to get those cards.
I think crypto will help us pay more quickly.

Well it's not surprising that there's a like kakaotalk that will enter in crypto because we all know that many apps or platforms are enter in crypto like telegram and many more. And also kakaotalk is not the most popular app today.

Kakaotalk maybe is the South Korean's biggest messaging application but I dont think it is one of the most popular app worldwide. As what I heard, they are going to have their own Blockchain network called Klatyn. I'm not really sure if it will be a success project but I think it will be more hype if the app that is going to integrate crypto wallet is Whatsapp which is the number one used messaging app all around the world.
hopefully all digital messaging applications can be integrated with crypto immediately. if we can easily use applications that can support crypto trading, the future of digital money can spread very quickly throughout the country.
right, of course this will trigger other applications so as not to miss. of course we have a good impact with this news, with more and more people who understand bitcoin, increasing demand

I think Kakaotalk focuses only in some countries that's why they can't be matched with some other large messaging apps.
Well, these geographically oriented platforms are quite important for adoption considering that competitors like whatsapp aren't allowed to operate everywhere. This is how you reach every spot of the world.

I think that with time, even the Chinese government will have to admit that they can't stop Bitcoin and open up more instead of trying to shut down and ban everything. People think China is out of crypto, but they aren't.

It wouldn't even surprise me if China is still leading in terms of being the country with the most crypto related users. It's not for nothing that weird Asian exchanges became so popular. Chinese traders use them.
True, they have their own territory to spread the adoption and it's really good to see that Kakaotalk is doing it. They can have their own reason for doing this such as riding the popularity of crypto's or it's just they really see the future of it.

China isn't really out of crypto, I've seen some videos on how some people shows on how you can avail goods there with bitcoin. They probably just want to lowkey themselves while the market is on this phase. The question that runs on my mind, what will be the next big messaging app to have an announcement like this?

As the article says, nothing has been decided yet, this is just an idea. There is a lot of time between the idea and the launch. And we are not immune to seeing a company coin which will have maybe nothing cryptographic, just a random token. If the company isn't dealing with the existing cryptos (BTC, ETH,etc) and prefer to create its own then there is nothing usefull in term of "adoption".

KakaoTalk user here. Though not confirmed yet, taking it into consideration is already a good news imo. As other members said, KakaoTalk is not as popular and widely use compared to other messaging apps, but hey 44 million local users is a huge number.

We won't know, other apps might take it into consideration too after hearing the news or right after it has been integrated by KakaoTalk (if ever it happens).

First is telegram and now KakaoTalk? It's very unusual when a communication company enters the business of cryptocurrency. Some of the analyst seen a progressive income when having learnings in cryptocurrency.

All of the social media platforms are taking a step towards advanced technology, they have stocks and now a cryptocurrency. Even mobile company like Samsung that allows their device for a hardware wallet.

Such a great news. There are still so many users around the globe until now that uses messaging apps like kakaotalk. Id they are about to finally decide to make it a crypto wallet then it may attract new users to download that app. I also be agreed that it may somehow affect the market's situation of these will finally decided.

Every news like this for the benefit of crypto should be taken in a positive way. KakaoTalk might have less users as compare to other messaging apps, but integrating crypto wallet is like a good marketing ploy for their services. Because we all know the more and more people are engaging in crypto and them adding a wallet will surely bring interest on their apps again, specially around the South East nations. So still a very welcoming news for everyone.

im sure that almost all of us do already heard of kakaotalk because this messaging app/platform is being advertise before on local t.v's  and maybe around the net like on social media platforms such as on facebook and youtube and its actually quite popular before but it didnt last a long time because other messaging apps are being created every single day and people also loves to try other new stuff's   .  

i believe this idea of kakaotalk partnering with crypto can again bring its fame and other popular apps that dont currently support crypto are now going to be left behind  .

KakaoTalk still discussing to integrate a cryptocurrency wallet functions to KakaoTalk, but nothing is confirmed yet.

I read at
Quote
“It’s true that we are [internally] discussing whether we will add cryptocurrency wallet functions to KakaoTalk, but nothing is confirmed yet.”

So, it still needs time before the user of KakaoTalk can use cryptocurrency in those apps. It will be a long time before they can get one vote to integrate with cryptocurrency. But this is good news for cryptocurrency user because it will help crypto to spread up in the KakaoTalk user. So, let's wait for the next information from them.
From the quote it is clear about the integration of the wallet hasn't taken place yet. I believe this beginning of integrating wallets to the apps existed once after Samsung's entry through recent launch of S10 series having access to store five different cryptocurrencies and it is inbuilt. Few of which are the top crypto's. Can expect more applications integrating cryptocurrency wallets.

It's not yet confirmed by the company itself but it shouldn't be surprising. East Asia tends to be more open to online payments, the Chinese already do a lot of transactions through Wechat for example.

Add to that South Korea's less strict policies towards crypto and you get a cryptowallet in Kakao. Hopefully this is true. So far Kakao is still popular in SEA. Not as much as FBM but if it offers a wallet and payment options, crypto enthusiasts might try it out.

I don't think that kakaotalk is not as popular as you said. However, it is good news related to cryptocurrency world. It seems many big companies especially on social network field are racing for adopting cryptocurrency to their platform.

There has been a lot of news like this before but what I remember is that no news like this has been realized to be applied in the various applications mentioned.

I'm not sure about this as the messaging app has less than 60M concurrent users every month, and only a limited part of the Southeast Asian region really utilizes the said app (popular in Singapore, Malaysia and SoKor, if I'm not mistaken) for everyday use. Integrating a crypto wallet into something that people uses everyday is a great start, no matter how few or how many the users are. They will get curious and it will spark their interests even further, causing a surge in searches for the term and possibly, surge in investors. A good move, I'd say, though I don't think the change or effect would be substantial/
