韩国禁止Apple App Store的14个加密货币应用

作为目前的监管计划的一部分，韩国政府对不受管制的加密货币平台迈出了决定性的一步。

The South Korean government continues to take steps against unregulated cryptocurrency platforms as part of its broader regulatory initatives.

韩国政府继续采取措施反对不受管制的加密货币平台，这是其更广泛的监管初始化的一部分。

Financial authorities in the country have blocked 14 crypto exchange applications from the Apple App Store after discovering that the foreign operators failed to meet South Korean legal requirements. The Financial Services Commission (FSC) announced the new digital asset oversight plan on April 11.

该国的金融当局在发现外国运营商未能满足韩国法律要求后，封锁了Apple App Store的14个加密货币申请。金融服务委员会（FSC）于4月11日宣布了新的数字资产监督计划。

The blocked applications, which include KuCoin and MEXC among others, were operating illegally because they failed to register properly. The move comes as South Korea seeks to protect investment funds while the government is battling financial crimes that occur in the country’s expanding digital currency market.

包括Kucoin和MEXC在内的被阻塞申请非法运行，因为它们未能正确注册。此举是因为韩国试图保护投资基金，而政府正在与该国不断扩大的数字货币市场中发生的金融犯罪作斗争。

The regulatory initiative highlights the increasing concern over unregistered platforms. The country has 16 million crypto users, which is about 30 percent of the population.

监管倡议强调了对未注册平台的日益关注。该国拥有1600万加密使用者，约占人口的30％。

The Financial Supervisory Commission issued its ruling soon after Google Play established restrictions on 17 matching apps on March 26. Through these enforcement measures, the country is showing its commitment to making Virtual Asset Service Providers follow established regulations. Unregistered crypto operations expose users to risks, which include both scams and data theft incidents, according to the authorities.

金融监督委员会在3月26日对17个匹配应用程序建立限制后不久就发布了裁决。通过这些执法措施，该国表明了其致力于使虚拟资产服务提供商遵守已建立的法规。当局称，未注册的加密操作使用户面临风险，包括骗局和数据盗窃事件。

Why South Korea Is Targeting Crypto Apps

为什么韩国针对加密应用程序

The country maintains rigorous oversight over the regulation of cryptocurrencies throughout its territory. The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) under the Act on Reporting and Use of Specific Financial Transaction Information requires registration from all Virtual Asset Service Providers who operate in South Korea.

该国对整个领土的加密货币进行了严格的监督。根据《特定财务交易信息》的报告和使用法案，金融情报部门（FIU）要求所有在韩国运营的虚拟资产服务提供商的注册。

The 14 banned financial exchanges operated against the financial regulations established by South Korea. FIU reported that the unregulated exchanges posed a threat to money laundering operations because of their non-compliant operations. On April 14, the FSC published a report in which it identified these platforms as “unregistered overseas virtual asset operators.”

针对韩国制定的金融法规进行的14次禁止财务交易所。 FIU报告说，由于不合规的运营，不受管制的交流对洗钱业务构成了威胁。 4月14日，FSC发布了一份报告，其中将这些平台确定为“未注册的海外虚拟资产运营商”。

Penalties for non-compliance are severe. Failure to comply leads to potential imprisonment of up to five years together with maximum fines of 50 million won which equals approximately $35,200. In order to prevent financial loss, the FIU has demanded that platform users verify exchange registration listings before transferring assets from unregistered platforms.

不合规的处罚是严重的。不遵守最多可判处五年的监禁，最高罚款为5000万韩元，相当于35,200美元。为了防止财务损失，FIU要求平台用户在从未注册平台转移资产之前先验证交换注册清单。

This situation has previously occurred in the country. The year 2022 began with sixteen unregistered platforms getting blocked, followed by an additional six more blocked platforms during 2023. The recent surge in crypto enforcement measures reflects what experts identify as the main reason for the new crypto ban. Industry analysts predict that the platform will attract 20 million users by the end of this year, according to the Traders Union report.

这种情况以前发生在该国。 2022年始于16个未注册的平台，随后在2023年又有了另外六个被阻塞的平台。最近的加密执法措施激增反映了专家认为是新加密禁令的主要原因。根据Traders Union的报告，行业分析师预测，该平台将在今年年底之前吸引2000万用户。

A Growing Crypto Market Under Scrutiny

在审查下越来越多的加密市场

The South Korean crypto industry maintains its growth momentum despite growing government supervision. South Korean regulators show interest in digital asset trading because more than 30% of the population takes part in this market. The FSC and FIU maintain security and stability through innovation through their implementation of platform anti-money laundering compliance standards.

尽管政府的监督不断增加，但韩国加密工业仍保持其增长势头。韩国监管机构对数字资产交易表现出兴趣，因为超过30％的人口参与了这个市场。 FSC和FIU通过实施平台反洗钱合规标准通过创新来保持安全和稳定。

The Apple Store restriction prevents users from installing new applications and updating existing ones for specific software programs. The applications function for current users, but their performance decreases because the platforms lack updates. Because it operates among the affected platforms, KuCoin is following exchange developments while prioritizing compliance.

Apple Store限制可防止用户安装新应用程序，并为特定软件程序更新现有应用程序。该应用程序可用于当前用户，但由于平台缺乏更新，其性能会降低。由于它在受影响的平台之间运行，因此Kucoin正在遵循交换开发项目，同时优先考虑合规性。

The restrictions that Google previously established became the building blocks. Google Play eliminated seventeen of the twenty-two unregistered platforms that the FSC had identified. Website blocking has become an official component of the FIU’s approach to enforcing standards compliance from operators.

Google先前建立的限制成为了基础。 Google Play消除了FSC确定的22个未注册平台中的17个。网站阻塞已成为FIU方法实施运营商标准的官方组成部分。
