$BTC South Korea strengthens regulation of the crypto market, including Bitcoin (BTC) trading. New rules regarding exchange licensing and anti-money laundering will take effect in 2024. BTC, as the primary cryptocurrency, is subject to mandatory reporting for large transactions. A profit tax on BTC operations is planned to be implemented in 2025. At the same time, the government supports the development of blockchain technologies and is testing CBDC (central bank digital currency). This policy aims to protect investors and legalize the market, making BTC in South Korea increasingly regulated but also an accepted asset.
