Upbit, the first crypto exchange to register with South Korea’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), said it will start tightening restrictions on customers whose identities have not been verified. The restrictions will kick in on Wednesday to meet the country’s anti-money laundering laws, the exchange said in a statement on its website. Members who do not have real-name verification will be restricted from depositing or withdrawing more than 1 million won ($850) until they are verified. Unverified customers will face stiffer restrictions later in the month.
