Odaily Planet Daily News: The Financial Services Commission (FSC) of South Korea announced that it will allow non-profit organizations and virtual asset exchanges to sell their cryptocurrencies from June, while tightening the listing rules for exchange tokens. Non-profit organizations must meet conditions such as at least five years of audited operating records and the establishment of a donation review committee, and can only accept tokens listed on at least three won exchanges and must sell them immediately. The sale of cryptocurrencies by exchanges is limited to raising operating funds, with daily sales limits and prohibiting trading through their own platforms. Only the top 20 tokens in terms of market value are allowed to be traded, and anti-money laundering standards must be complied with. The FSC simultaneously strengthened the review of listings, requiring local exchanges to filter out "zombie coins" with too low trading volume or market value, and set higher listing thresholds for meme coins such as user base or transaction history to curb price fluctuations and strengthen investor protection. The FSC said that the new regulations are a policy adjustment after the ban on institutional trading of cryptocurrencies in 2017, aimed at balancing regulation and market flexibility, and plans to extend the rules to corporate and institutional investors by the end of 2025.
