Given the increasing number of hacker attacks that cryptocurrency exchanges suffered in the past year, the Republic of South Korea is particularly inclined to pass measures that improve transparency, an official press release states.

"We have had a presence in the South Korean market for over three years and are continuing to invest to ensure we provide top-notch, on-the-ground support for our customers," Bonds said.
