South Korea may launch regulated crypto investment products by the end of 2025
According to a report by Jinse Finance, South Korea is undergoing a significant shift from its previous cryptocurrency policies by integrating spot ETFs and stablecoins into the core of its financial system. As the government formulates detailed plans, the country could see regulated crypto investment products launched as early as the end of 2025. This week, South Korea’s top financial regulator—the Financial Services Commission (FSC)—submitted a new proposal outlining its plans to introduce spot cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds. The roadmap has been presented to the Presidential Policy Planning Committee and includes a framework for legitimate, regulated crypto ETFs, marking a sharp departure from the country’s previously cautious stance. According to the roadmap, the FSC will prepare the necessary legal and technical foundations for these funds. This involves establishing infrastructure for custody, pricing, operations, and fund management, as well as setting clear investor protection standards.
