[Bithumb, FIU clash in court over sub-$1K crypto withdrawals]

South Korea’s financial authorities and crypto exchange Bithumb clashed in court over a six-month partial business suspension imposed on the exchange, Hankyung reported.

On Oct. 22, the Seoul Administrative Court’s Second Administrative Division held the first hearing in Bithumb’s suit seeking to overturn a partial business suspension ordered by South Korea’s Financial Intelligence Unit, or FIU. The two sides disputed whether exchanges were required to verify counterpart exchanges for virtual-asset withdrawals under 1 million won and whether Bithumb knowingly left illegal transactions unchecked. Bithumb argued it had no duty to verify the receiving exchange for small withdrawals, making it difficult to fully block illicit transactions. The FIU countered Bithumb knew of its obligation to ban transactions with unregistered overseas exchanges and still failed to take the necessary blocking measures, amounting to intent or gross negligence.

[Ki Young Ju says continued fresh capital into BTC makes another bear market unlikely]

Bitcoin’s realized cap has been rising since around Aug. 19, when the price rebound began, indicating fresh capital inflows and leaving little reason to expect another bear market, CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju said.

Ju said stablecoin issuance does not necessarily lead to BTC buying, and funds flowing into futures exchanges can also coincide with falling prices as exchanges may need to secure liquidity to settle profitable positions. While stablecoin liquidity remains important over the long term, the more important question now is who is buying and who is selling, Ju said. Realized cap confirms new money is entering the market, while existing whales have stopped selling, miners are increasing production and sentiment in traditional financial markets remains positive, according to Ju.
