TechFlow news — On December 30, according to South Korean media NAVER, the Financial Services Commission announced that the decision on whether to allow enterprises to open cryptocurrency accounts will be postponed until 2025. Following the first Virtual Asset Committee meeting, the second meeting scheduled for January next year will revisit the discussion on permitting won-denominated corporate virtual asset accounts.
Previously, the Financial Services Commission had been considering allowing non-profit entities such as central government agencies, local governments, public institutions, and universities to issue real-name accounts in the initial phase, but this matter has not yet been finalized. In particular, the recent impeachment situation may lead the government to further delay deliberation on the outcomes of the Virtual Asset Committee discussions.
