Crypto.com 進軍韓國數位資產市場

Crypto.com 很快就會透過其最近收購的本地授權交易所 OK-BIT 在韓國推出零售交易服務。雖然Crypto.com 的目標是透過4 月29 日推出的應用程式提供廣泛的加密貨幣服務，但韓國的監管限制可能會限制該交易所的產品，可能會排除機構交易者並限制加密貨幣到加密貨幣的交易選項。

Crypto.com Establishes Foothold in South Korean Digital Asset Market

Crypto.com 進軍韓國數位資產市場

Singapore-based digital asset exchange Crypto.com has announced its imminent entry into the South Korean market, marking a significant expansion in the company's global footprint. The move comes after Crypto.com's acquisition of OK-BIT, a locally licensed crypto exchange, in 2022.

總部位於新加坡的數位資產交易所 Crypto.com 宣布即將進入韓國市場，這標誌著該公司全球足跡的顯著擴張。在此之前，Crypto.com 於 2022 年收購了本地授權的加密貨幣交易所 OK-BIT。

On April 29th, Crypto.com will launch its retail trading services in South Korea, offering a comprehensive suite of features to its customers. The exchange plans to replace OK-BIT with its proprietary trading app, providing access to over 150 cryptocurrencies, exclusive NFT projects through Crypto.com NFT, educational resources via Crypto.com University, and a loyalty program with attractive rewards.

4 月 29 日，Crypto.com 將在韓國推出零售交易服務，為其客戶提供一整套功能。該交易所計劃用其專有的交易應用程式取代OK-BIT，提供對150 多種加密貨幣的存取、透過Crypto.com NFT 的獨家NFT 專案、透過Crypto.com University 的教育資源以及具有有吸引力獎勵的忠誠度計劃。

Eric Anziani, President and Chief Operating Officer of Crypto.com, expressed his enthusiasm for the expansion, stating, "We are incredibly excited to be launching the Crypto.com App for retail users in South Korea – a market of tremendous importance to the growth of our business, and one where consumers are very interested in crypto."

Crypto.com 總裁兼營運長 Eric Anziani 表達了他對此次擴張的熱情，他表示：「我們非常高興能夠為韓國的零售用戶推出Crypto.com 應用程序，這是一個對成長至關重要的市場我們的業務，也是消費者對加密貨幣非常感興趣的業務。”

Despite this milestone, Crypto.com faces potential challenges in offering a full trading experience in South Korea due to the country's stringent digital asset regulations. According to local media reports, the exchange plans to operate under OK-BIT's VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider) rights until September 2023. This arrangement may limit Crypto.com's app to crypto-to-crypto trading due to OK-BIT's lack of a bank partnership for won market operations.

儘管取得了這一里程碑，但由於韓國嚴格的數位資產法規，Crypto.com 在提供完整交易體驗方面仍面臨潛在挑戰。根據當地媒體報道，該交易所計劃在 2023 年 9 月之前在 OK-BIT 的 VASP（虛擬資產服務提供者）權利下運作。由於 OK-BIT 缺乏韓元市場業務的銀行合作夥伴關係。

Furthermore, institutional traders based in South Korea are prohibited from investing directly in crypto, which could hinder Crypto.com's ability to serve this segment of the market.

此外，韓國的機構交易者被禁止直接投資加密貨幣，這可能會阻礙 Crypto.com 服務該市場領域的能力。

Despite these regulatory hurdles, Crypto.com remains committed to fostering the growth of the digital asset industry in South Korea. Anziani emphasized, "We are dedicated to working closely with South Korean regulators to help grow the domestic digital assets industry responsibly."

儘管存在這些監管障礙，Crypto.com 仍然致力於促進韓國數位資產產業的成長。 Anziani 強調，“我們致力於與韓國監管機構密切合作，以負責任的方式幫助發展國內數位資產產業。”

The exchange's entry into South Korea is seen as a positive sign for the country's digital asset ecosystem, bringing a reputable player with a global presence and a commitment to innovation. As South Korea continues to explore the potential of digital assets, Crypto.com's presence is expected to contribute to the industry's development and adoption by retail investors and businesses alike.

該交易所進入韓國被視為該國數位資產生態系統的積極信號，帶來了一家具有全球影響力並致力於創新的信譽良好的參與者。隨著韓國不斷探索數位資產的潛力，Crypto.com 的出現預計將有助於該行業的發展以及散戶投資者和企業的採用。
