South Korea crypto policy 🪙🪙

South Korea is rapidly shifting its stance on crypto regulation. The Financial Services Commission (FSC) will lift a years‑long ban on institutional crypto trading in two phases during 2025, first enabling nonprofits, universities, law enforcement, and exchanges to trade in H1, followed by public companies and professional investors by Q3 . Simultaneously, broader regulatory reform is underway: new stablecoin rules, stricter user disclosures, and updated exchange requirements are expected in H2 2025 . Cross‑border crypto flows will also be regulated, with mandatory reporting to the Bank of Korea from mid‑2025 . This marks a major step toward institutional adoption and market maturation in South Korea.
