South Korea to establish guidelines for crypto exchanges

06/08 23:46

According to CryptoPotato, top officials have now asked cryptocurrency exchanges to devise guidelines with respect to the listing and delisting of digital tokens to safeguard the investors from yet another debacle. Yun Chang-Hyun, a lawmaker who heads the ruling People Power Party’s virtual assets committee, has called for a second meeting with domestic cryptocurrency exchanges Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax next week. The politician revealed in an interview that the main objective of the meeting is to agree on a draft of the non-binding guidelines. South Korean policymakers are looking to implement a self-regulatory system similar to Japan. The official also said the cryptocurrency industry was “neglected for too long without order and discipline” while highlighting the “shortcomings” when compared to traditional finance. Further details of the draft guidelines have not been divulged, but much of the efforts are likely to be centered around employing stricter reporting requirements to ramp up transparency instead of tightening trading procedures, according to Bloomberg’s sources familiar with the matter.
