The state has taken a decisive step toward total control over digital assets. The Supreme Court's decision, announced on December 11, 2025, establishes that Bitcoin on exchanges is an "immediate seizure object".
Why should you care?
1️⃣ End of Privacy in Custody: The court now treats BTC on exchanges as any other physical asset, enabling mass seizures.
2️⃣ Preventive Lockdowns: The government is already considering blocking withdrawals and transfers at the slightest sign of "suspicious activity," even before you can defend yourself legally.
3️⃣ Full Tracking: The net around KYC and monitoring systems will be tightened, turning exchanges into direct tools for financial surveillance.
The precedent has been set. What was once considered an "independent digital asset" is now under the direct scrutiny and control of the South Korean judiciary.
