The FIU removed 14 unregistered foreign exchanges, including #KUCOIN , #MEXC , and #Poloniex , from the Apple App Store and Google Play.
These platforms operated without mandatory registration or ISMS certification.

Violators face up to 5 years in prison or ₩50M fines (~$38K).

This move is part of South Korea’s broader push to regulate crypto under its AML laws & protect investors, especially after past market failures (e.g., Terra/LUNA).
A clear signal that global crypto regulation is accelerating.
