South Korea’s regulatory approach to cryptocurrency continues to evolve, with authorities taking a cautious stance on corporate investments in digital assets. During the second Virtual Asset Committee meeting hosted by the Financial Services Commission (FSC) on January 15, the progress of new crypto investor protection laws was discussed.
