About this document

English translation of the FSC and FSS joint press release dated July 1, 2026, announcing the referral of suspects in two virtual asset market manipulation cases to investigative authorities. Case (i) involves a long-term whale manipulation scheme exploiting cross-exchange price synchronization mechanisms. Case (ii) involves a short-term Kimchi Coin scheme combining API market-order trading with strategically placed high-priced limit buy orders to artificially inflate asset prices.
