#SouthKoreaCryptoPolicy South Korea is tightening its crypto regulations while preparing for institutional investment. New rules, finalized in May 2025, target nonprofits, exchanges, and token listings, aiming for market stability and investor protection. Nonprofits can sell donated crypto under strict conditions, requiring audited history and verified accounts. Exchanges face sales caps and cannot self-list, with tighter listing standards for new tokens. The government also plans to allow institutional crypto access, starting with nonprofits in Q2 2025, followed by corporations and professional investors in Q3. A proposed 20% crypto gains tax has been postponed to 2027.
