Bithumb hit with $25M fine and 6-month suspension after 6.6M compliance breaches

South Korea's Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) has imposed a $25 million fine and a six-month partial business suspension on crypto exchange Bithumb. The penalty follows the discovery of over 6.6 million violations of financial compliance rules, primarily failures in customer identity verification and transaction monitoring. The exchange's CEO received a formal reprimand and its reporting officer was suspended for six months. Despite the enforcement action, Bithumb's trading remains strong, with Korean won pairs dominating over 92% of its $724 million 24-hour trading volume.
