#韩国加密政策 South Korea's cryptocurrency policy mainly includes the following aspects:

Regulation of trading platforms

- "Virtual Asset User Protection Act": imposes stricter compliance requirements on trading platforms, including asset custody mechanisms, prevention of insider trading, and separate management of user assets. Virtual asset service providers are required to segregate user funds from their own, maintained by reputable institutions, with a certain percentage of deposits kept in cold wallets, purchasing insurance or reserves, and retaining transaction records for 15 years.

Tax policy

Originally planned to implement capital gains tax on virtual asset transfers in 2025, now postponed to 2027. The ruling party had planned to impose a tax rate of 20% (including local tax 22%) on cryptocurrency earnings exceeding the tax-free threshold, with the tax-free threshold raised from 2.5 million KRW to 50 million KRW.
