South Korean President-elect Lee Jae-myung Advocates for Crypto Integration

South Korean presidential candidate Lee Jae-myung secured a clear victory in the 20th election, marking a significant shift in the country’s approach to cryptocurrency. Lee’s platform is centered on integrating cryptocurrencies into South Korea’s financial system through pension fund investment and the legalization of spot ETFs. He aims to address concerns about capital outflow while fostering long-term wealth building through regulated crypto investments. His stance contrasts with previous elections, which have often focused on caution and regulatory control over cryptocurrency. Lee’s plan involves utilizing national pension funds for crypto exposure, aligning with his goal of creating a more stable investment landscape.
