Recall that in December the Minister of Justice of South Korea said that the country’s authorities would consider a complete ban on digital currencies in the country. As a result, residents of the country began to collect signatures for a petition, which called on the government not to introduce this ban.
A total of 300,000 signatures were collected. In response, the South Korean authorities stated that they would not introduce a ban.
