The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) is under pressure to impose significant fines on cryptocurrency exchange Upbit following a comprehensive investigation into its operations. Democratic Party of Korea member Min Byung-duk has highlighted the possibility of a fine reaching a staggering 183 trillion won, based on the scale of legal breaches identified. According to data released by Min Byung-duk's office, Upbit's operator, Dunamu, committed over 9.5 million violations across 10 distinct categories. While the FIU has already sanctioned Upbit with a partial business suspension (3 months) and disciplinary actions against executives and employees, a monetary fine has yet to be levied. The FIU's decision on whether to impose this substantial fine will be closely watched by the cryptocurrency industry and regulators alike. It could set a precedent for future enforcement actions against exchanges failing to comply with regulations and anti-money laundering (AML) requirements. The severity of the potential fine reflects the FIU's commitment to holding virtual asset service providers accountable and protecting the integrity of the financial system. ```
