韓國加密市場繼續簽約，因為註冊的虛擬資產服務提供商在一年內下降了26％以上

政府數據現在證實，該國註冊的虛擬資產服務提供商的數量在一年內下降了26％以上。

South Korea's crypto exchange landscape has undergone a drastic shift, with the number of registered virtual asset service providers (VASPs) declining by over 26% within a year. This development comes amid a broader market downturn and increasing regulatory scrutiny.

韓國的加密交易所格局發生了巨大的轉變，一年內註冊的虛擬資產服務提供商（VASP）的數量在一年內下降了26％以上。在更廣泛的市場經濟下滑和監管審查越來越大的情況下，這種發展是出現的。

According to a report by the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) on February 7, only 31 crypto exchanges remain active in South Korea, down from 42 in the previous year. Many of the firms that exited the market, such as GDAC, ProBit, Huobi Korea, and Bitrade, primarily operated as token-only platforms that lacked fiat trading support, making it difficult to sustain operations.

根據2月7日金融情報部（FIU）的報告，只有31個加密貨幣交易所在韓國保持活躍，低於上一年的42個。退出市場的許多公司，例如GDAC，Probit，Huobi Korea和Bitrade，主要是僅作為缺少菲亞特交易支持的僅代幣平台，因此很難維持運營。

A key reason behind these closures is the failure to renew registrations, which resulted in the removal of several exchanges from the country’s official registry. Apart from these restrictions, South Korea's martial law in early December 2024 also caused a significant Korean crypto market decline.

這些關閉背後的關鍵原因是未能續簽註冊，這導致從該國官方註冊表中刪除了幾次交流。除了這些限制外，韓國的戒嚴令在2024年12月上旬還導致韓國加密貨幣市場下降。

Token-Only Exchanges in Deep Trouble

在深度麻煩中唯一的象徵交換

Among the exchanges that faced difficulties were those known as "token-only" platforms. These exchanges lacked real-name bank accounts, which made it difficult to attract users. Without fiat trading options like the Korean won or the U.S. dollar, user interest in these platforms remained low.

在面臨困難的交流中，有那些被稱為“僅象徵性”平台的交流。這些交易所缺乏真名銀行帳戶，這使得很難吸引用戶。如果沒有諸如韓國贏得的菲亞特交易選項或美元的美元，對這些平台的用戶興趣仍然很低。

According to the FIU report, "Over 90% of these exchanges were in a state of complete capital erosion last year." This eventually led to the shutdown of platforms such as Qubit and Coinbit, among others.

根據FIU報告，“這些交易所中有90％以上是去年完全侵蝕的狀態。”這最終導致了Qubit和Coinbit等平台的關閉。

As the market continues to contract, the FIU warns that more exchanges could soon follow. Some firms still registered in South Korea have already expressed intentions to exit the market, while others are looking toward overseas expansion to escape domestic regulatory uncertainty.

隨著市場的繼續收縮，FIU警告說，可能會很快進行交流。一些仍在韓國註冊的公司已經表示打算退出市場，而另一些公司則希望在海外擴張以逃避國內監管不確定性。

South Korea's regulatory environment has made it difficult for crypto businesses to operate smoothly. The nation’s strict anti-money laundering (AML) policies and Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements have placed an additional burden on exchanges, especially those lacking direct banking support.

韓國的監管環境使加密貨幣企業難以順利運營。該國嚴格的反洗錢（AML）政策並了解您的客戶（KYC）要求對交易所增加了負擔，尤其是那些缺乏直接銀行支持的人。

Upbit Faces Potential Sanctions

UPBIT面臨潛在的製裁

One of South Korea's largest exchanges, Upbit, is now under scrutiny and could face sanctions for allegedly failing to comply with the country’s AML and KYC regulations. Local news outlet Maeil reported that the Financial Information Analysis Institute (FIU), under the Financial Services Commission, has already notified Upbit of the pending penalties.

韓國最大的交易所之一UPBIT正在受到審查，並可能因涉嫌不遵守該國的AML和KYC規定而面臨制裁。當地新聞媒體Maeil報導說，金融服務委員會的金融信息分析研究所（FIU）已經通知UPBIT未決處罰。

If the sanctions are confirmed, Upbit could be prohibited from onboarding new customers for up to six months. Such restrictions would pose significant challenges for the platform, which has remained one of the few dominant players in South Korea’s shrinking crypto market.

如果確認制裁，則可以禁止將新客戶入職長達六個月。這種限制將對該平台構成重大挑戰，該平台仍然是韓國加密貨幣市場縮小的少數主要參與者之一。

Upbit informed users that the decision would limit new customers from moving virtual assets off the exchange for a specific duration.

UPBIT告訴用戶，該決定將限制新客戶在特定持續時間內將虛擬資產從交易所脫離交換。

South Korea's Kimchi Premium Hits 3-Year High

韓國的泡菜高級命中3年高

Even as local exchanges struggle, South Korea's Bitcoin kimchi premium has surged, reaching a 10-month high. According to a recent post by CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young, the premium reached 12% on Monday, marking a three-year high. At the time of writing, it has settled at 8.20%.

即使當地交流鬥爭，韓國的比特幣泡菜溢價也飆升，達到了10個月的高點。根據CryptoQuant首席執行官Ki Young的最新一篇文章，週一的溢價達到了12％，標誌著三年的高點。在撰寫本文時，它的定價為8.20％。

South Korean Kimchi Premium Index hits 3 years high (Ki Young)

The kimchi premium refers to the price difference when Bitcoin trades higher on South Korean exchanges compared to other global platforms. This gap arises because foreign investors cannot access South Korea’s crypto market, and local investors who attempt arbitrage could face penalties under capital control laws.

Kimchi Premium是指比特幣交易在韓國交流中與其他全球平台相比的價格差。由於外國投資者無法訪問韓國的加密貨幣市場而出現這一差距，而嘗試套利的當地投資者可能會在資本管制法律下面臨罰款。

The premium is often a sign of strong local demand for crypto despite market downturns. However, it also underscores the regulatory walls that prevent the free movement of digital assets, limiting opportunities for traders.

儘管市場低迷，但溢價通常是對加密貨幣的強烈需求的標誌。但是，它也強調了防止數字資產自由流動的監管牆，從而限制了交易者的機會。
