O número de cidadãos estrangeiros com contas em corretoras de criptomoedas domésticas atingiu 560.000, mas apenas 90 deles são usuários ativos, mostraram dados no domingo. Acredita-se que as contas tenham sido abertas antes que o investimento estrangeiro fosse efetivamente proibido em 2021.

De acordo com dados do Serviço de Supervisão Financeira, as cinco principais corretoras de criptomoedas — Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, DigitalX e GOPAX — tinham um total combinado de 566.352 contas mantidas por cidadãos estrangeiros. Os dados foram obtidos e divulgados pelo deputado Park Sang-hyuk, do governista Partido Democrata da Coreia.

Destas, apenas 517 contas mantidas por estrangeiros, ou 0,09%, haviam concluído a verificação de "conheça seu cliente" (know-your-customer). O número de contas ativas que registraram pelo menos uma negociação, transação de staking, depósito ou retirada no mês passado foi ainda menor, com apenas 90, ou 0,01%.

A Bithumb teve o maior número de contas mantidas por estrangeiros, com 484.846, seguida pela Upbit com 42.449, Coinone com 15.914, DigitalX com 11.622 e GOPAX com 11.521.

A Coreia proibiu efetivamente os cidadãos estrangeiros de investir por meio de corretoras de cripto domésticas após uma revisão de 2021 na Lei de Relatórios e Uso de Informações de Transações Financeiras Especificadas. Embora a negociação de cripto seja permitida por meio de contas bancárias verificadas com nome real, os estrangeiros geralmente não conseguem obter tais contas em meio a preocupações com lavagem de dinheiro e transações cambiais ilegais.
