KOREA OPENING DOORS TO CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN CRYPTO AFTER 9 YEARS
South Korea officially allows corporations to list and professional investors to participate in the crypto market, marking a major turning point after nearly a decade of restrictions on institutional entities.
According to the Financial Services Commission of Korea (FSC), companies are allocated a maximum of 5% of their equity each year into crypto, provided they only invest in the top 20 listed digital assets on five major exchanges, in order to control systemic risk. Approximately 3,500 organizations are expected to qualify for participation when the regulations take effect.
This move is part of the 2026 growth strategy, linked to the plan for developing a domestic stablecoin and the roadmap for a Spot Bitcoin ETF.
Previously, the ban caused the Korean crypto market to be nearly 100% retail-driven and led to capital outflows of around $52 billion. Opening the market to institutions is expected to improve liquidity, reduce extreme volatility, and bring crypto back into the mainstream financial system.
👉 This is not a short-term "pump" signal, but rather an indication of institutional capital returning and a long-term accumulation cycle forming. Do you still believe in $BTC ? Leave a comment
