South Korea is once again setting the pace for the entire crypto industry

From July 1, 2025, a new law on digital assets will come into force in the country, which for the first time introduces a clear distinction between cryptocurrencies as investment assets and as means of payment.

Regulators require exchanges to provide full disclosure of information, and projects are obliged to provide a white paper in the style of IPO documentation.

All of this is not just bureaucracy. It is preparation for the next step: the legalization and introduction of institutional money into Web3.

Important:
– Crypto exchanges in Korea are now required to hold reserves in banks
– Token fraud will be punishable by criminal liability
– Special attention to DeFi protocols and gaming tokens, where many gray areas still remain

South Korea is not just tightening control - it is showing what a mature crypto market can look like, where both innovation and investor protection are possible.

The rest of the world has to watch... or catch up.
