韓國的金融情報分析部門（FIU）正在打擊加密貨幣交流

韓國的金融情報分析部門（FIU）大大提高了該國境內和國際運營的加密貨幣交易所的執法。

South Korea’s Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit (FIU) is intensifying its crackdown on cryptocurrency exchanges operating within and outside the country.

韓國的金融情報分析部門（FIU）正在加強其對國家內部和外部運營的加密貨幣交換的鎮壓。

As reported by Block Mena, the FIU is putting several trading platforms under scrutiny for potential violations of regulatory compliance. This move showcases the unit’s hardline stance against crypto-related service providers.

正如Block Mena報導的那樣，FIU正在對幾個可能違反監管合規行為的行為進行審查。此舉展示了該部門針對加密相關服務提供商的硬線立場。

The FIU is also targeting major unregistered overseas exchanges, including BitMEX and CoinW, for offenses linked to the country’s Specific Financial Transaction Information Reporting and Use Act.

FIU還針對包括BITMEX和COINW在內的主要未註冊的海外交易所，涉及與該國特定的財務交易信息報告和使用法有關的罪行。

Authorities are planning to block access to these non-compliant platforms for Korean users, aiming to curb cryptocurrency trading in domains lacking the necessary legal framework. Another foreign exchange was also reportedly targeted in this action.

當局計劃阻止韓國用戶對這些不合規平台的訪問，旨在遏制缺乏必要法律框架的域名的加密貨幣交易。據報導，這一行動中還針對另一個外匯。

This development has raised concerns among market participants regarding restricted access to widely used trading platforms.

這一發展引起了市場參與者對限制使用廣泛使用交易平台的關注。

Upbit, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in South Korea, has also faced regulatory hurdles. The FIU reportedly issued a suspension notice against Upbit in January for alleged breaches of Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations.

Upbit是韓國最大的加密貨幣交流之一，也面臨監管障礙。據報導，FIU因涉嫌違反您的客戶（KYC）法規而在一月份針對UPBIT發出了暫停通知。

Moreover, Dunamu, the exchange’s partner firm which manages Upbit’s operations in South Korea, received a three-month suspension notice in late February due to a violation of the obligation to prevent transactions with unnotified virtual asset operators.

此外，管理UPBIT在韓國運營的交易所合作公司Dunamu在2月下旬收到了三個月的停賽通知，這是由於違反了防止與未註明的虛擬資產運營商進行交易的義務。

In a separate development, South Korean prosecutors raided the offices of Bithumb on March 20th following allegations of significant financial misconduct by former CEO Kim Dae-sik.

在另一項發展中，韓國檢察官在3月20日襲擊了Bithumb的辦公室，此前曾指控前首席執行官Kim Dae-Sik涉嫌重大財務不當行為。

Prosecutors suspect Kim embezzled a large sum of funds from the exchange, including a 3 billion Korean won (more than $2 million) apartment lease deposit, to invest in real estate.

檢察官懷疑金從交易所挪用了大量資金，其中包括30億韓元（超過200萬美元）的公寓租金，以投資房地產。

The funds were allegedly used to purchase an apartment in Gangnam, Seoul, and a villa on Jeju Island.

據稱，這些資金用於購買在江南，首爾和濟州島的別墅中的公寓。

Earlier this month, the Democratic Party was asked to urge the Bank of Korea to discuss the potential benefits of a strategic Bitcoin reserve, an idea U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration reportedly mulled in 2019.

本月早些時候，民主黨被要求敦促韓國銀行討論戰略比特幣儲備的潛在利益，這是美國總統唐納德·特朗普的政府在2019年進行審議的想法。

However, the central bank quickly shot down the idea due to the cryptocurrency’s volatility. Bitcoin surged to an all-time high of $109,114.88 two months ago and is currently trading at $84,106.10, down 22% from those levels.

但是，由於加密貨幣的波動，中央銀行迅速降低了這個想法。兩個月前，比特幣飆升至歷史最高點109,114.88美元，目前的交易價格為84,106.10美元，比這些水平下降了22％。
