Currently, crypto is NOT taxed in korea. If they do this, it most likely WILL be taxed in korea.
Please everyone, for the sake of me, lets all sign a petition to stop the Korean government from doing this to ME and everyone like me. This will not raise trading volumes on korean exchanges and will only hurt those invested in crypto in korea.
Damn you Korean government! Damn you all to hell....! Source:
