Steve Young Kim, the Binance director for Asia Pacific, provided details on the sale. He said that the sale would be completed in the coming months and that all details would be announced by March.
As is known, Binance entered the South Korean market by acquiring Gopax last year. This was a good technological opportunity in the Web3 and Blockchain field.
However, the South Korean government’s imposition of certain requirements on Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) led to problems. In addition, Gopax was negatively affected by the bankruptcy of Genesis and suffered financially.
In addition, Gopax decided to suspend withdrawals in November 2022 after the Genesis bankruptcy.
Taking into account such unfavorable conditions, Binance announced that it would sell its shares.
