It has come to our attention that the Korea Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) is about to further their mystical investigations into the elusive world of cryptocurrencies.
Industry insiders in South Korea have been whispering to one another – with a side of iced coffee – that the FIU is gearing up to unleash some brutal magic on the likes of Korbit, Gopax, Bithumb, and Coinone. Why? Because they had the audacity to follow in the footsteps of Dunamu, who, like a hapless chocolate teapot, managed to melt under the intense scrutiny of a 35.2 billion KRW fine (a neat sum, indeed).
FIU Enforcement Targeting Major South Korean Crypto Exchanges
More on this magical carousel: The violators believe these penalties will be as delightful as a Vogon poetry reading and as consistent as the price of fish in the off-peak season. As a result, violators are bracing themselves like a Bongoonian preparing for a Great Green Toad invasion.

The financial grandmasters have decided it is their divine right to impose not only institutional but also personal sanctions. It’s all very excitingly orderly, following a mystic “first-in, first-out” system!
And so, the FIU has been conducting its shadowy on-site inspections since last year, seemingly dealing with anti-money laundering ADs disguised as mundane to-do lists and whose KYC compliance mysteriously resembles a confounding riddle of quantum mechanics.
Bringing us up to the status quo – most inspections are complete, with sanctions dancing merrily towards finalization. This dance appears to be choreographed in exact order, because priority is probably all about timing as much as melody.
Stricter Regulations Under Virtual Asset User Protection Act
Behold the grand Virtual Asset User Protection Act! Activated on 19 July 2024, it grants the FSC and FIU the omnipotence of ancient cosmic forces to monitor, prod, and fine virtual asset service providers (VASPs).
South Korea, ever the strategist, is not content with just that. Next year, apparently, they will instal a monitoring system capable of watching cross-border transactions blithely cross borders-if that’s even possible. And, in part two of their grand legal saga, they will introduce disclosure requirements as diligently as an accountant on April 14.
Moreover, February saw Dunamu’s CEO receive a disciplinary warning – along with a delightful three-month suspension and a fine that made Bernard Picard salivate.
Thus, we await the culmination of this grand bureaucratic performance with bated breath. The remaining penalties are expected to near their grand ending in the first half of next year-unless, of course, Inspector 42 has plans of his own. 🧙♂️🎩
