South Korea is accelerating its crypto reforms in 2025. The Financial Services Commission will lift the institutional trading ban in two phases: non‑profits, universities, and government bodies can trade in H1, while listed firms and professional investors gain access in H2 . Simultaneously, an enhanced regulatory framework is coming in H2 2025—covering exchange transparency, stablecoin oversight, and issuer disclosure rules . The broader plan, led by the ruling People Power Party, also targets scrapping the one‑exchange‑one‑bank policy, approving spot ETFs, and easing fintech ownership limits .

These coordinated steps aim to balance innovation with investor protection—📈 watch closely! #SouthKoreaCryptoPolicy
