S. Korea’s Crypto-Friendly Policy Battle Ahead of Elections

The upcoming South Korean legislative elections are expected to be greatly impacted by the cryptocurrency community which consists of roughly 6 million crypto enthusiasts.  With major parties competing to include their supporters, a crypto-friendly policy is now something that both campaigns are battling for. 

The Democratic Party promises no fiscal authority over spot ETFs on Bitcoin and altcoins, while the People’s Power pledges will procrastinate the capital tax on profit from crypto investments as well as favor investor protection.

Although some skeptical traders want to figure out if politicians have selfish benefits in mind, the others who hope to reap tax incentives and surges in trade remain hopeful. 

Moreover, voters will probably witness a tight competition between the People’s Power Party and the Democratic Party as indicated by the election observers with the People’s Party having a slight leading edge over the current front-runner, the Democratic Party. 

Another admirable issue is that the Seoul treatment court remarks that cryptocurrency “personal rehabilitation” applications among the youth go up due to purchases of cryptocurrency. 

This reflects the fact that bitcoin-oriented policy-making has pertinent organizational influence. In the election process, the crypto community can play different roles, but there should be no doubt that it has a huge influence and will continue to do so.
