韩国扩大了对为其公民服务的数字资产应用程序的禁令。

The country’s Financial Services Commission (FSC) announced that 14 crypto exchanges had their apps blocked on the Apple store. Among the affected exchanges are KuCoin and MEXC.

该国金融服务委员会（FSC）宣布，14个加密货币交易所在Apple Store上被封锁。在受影响的交流中有Kucoin和MEXC。

The report, which was made public on April 14, says the banned exchanges were operating as unregistered overseas virtual asset operators. The Financial Information Analysis Institution (FIU) will continue to promote the blocking of the apps and internet sites of such operators to prevent money laundering and user damage, the report adds.

该报告于4月14日公开，说被禁止的交易所正在以未注册的海外虚拟资产运营商的身份运行。该报告补充说，财务信息分析机构（FIU）将继续促进该操作员的应用程序和互联网站点的阻塞，以防止洗钱和用户损害。

The request to block applications on the Apple Store comes after Google Play blocked access to several unregistered exchanges on March 26. KuCoin and MEXC were also targeted during the blocking of the Google Play apps. The FSC published a list of 22 unregistered platforms operating in the country, with 17 of them already blocked on Google’s marketplace.

According to the FSC report, users will not be able to download the apps on the Apple Store, while existing users will not be able to update the apps. The FSC notes that “unreported business activities are criminal punishment matters” with penalties of up to five years in prison and a fine of up to 50 million won ($35,200).

根据FSC报告，用户将无法在Apple Store上下载应用程序，而现有用户将无法更新应用程序。 FSC指出，“未报告的商业活动是刑事处罚事务”，最高五年监禁，最高可罚款5000万韩元（35,200美元）。

FIU considers sanctions against unregistered VASPSEarlier in March, the FIU and the FSC were reportedly considering sanctions against crypto exchanges operating in the country without registration with local regulators.

FIU认为3月对未注册的Vaspsearlier进行了制裁，据报道，FIU和FSC正在考虑对在该国进行的加密交易所进行制裁，而无需与当地监管机构进行注册。

According to a report by Korean publication Hankyung on March 21, the sanctions included blocking access to the companies’ apps. In South Korea, operators of crypto sales, brokerage, management, and storage must report to the FIU. Failure to comply with registration and reports is subject to penalties and sanctions.

根据韩国出版物Hankyung于3月21日的一份报告，制裁包括阻止对公司应用程序的访问。在韩国，加密货币销售，经纪，管理和存储的运营商必须向FIU报告。不遵守注册和报告将受到处罚和制裁的约束。

The latest sanctions come as crypto is reaching a “saturation point” in South Korea. As of March 31, crypto exchange users in the country passed 16 million — equivalent to over 30% of the population. Industry officials predict that the number could surpass 20 million by the end of 2025.

最新的制裁是因为加密货币达到韩国的“饱和点”。截至3月31日，该国的加密货币用户通过了1600万，相当于30％以上人口。行业官员预测，到2025年底，这个数字将超过2000万。

Over 20% of Korean public officials hold cryptocurrencies, with the total amount reaching $9.8 million on March 27. The assets varied and included Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), XRP (XRP), and Dogecoin (DOGE).
