The “Virtual Currency Tracking System” will be launched by The Ministry of Justice in South Korea
To prevent money laundering schemes and reclaim cash associated with criminal activity, the South Korean Ministry of Justice revealed intentions to implement a crypto-tracking system.
The “Virtual Currency Tracking System” will be used to keep track of transaction history, extract data about transactions, and verify the origin of funds both before and after remittance.The South Korean government announced plans to construct a standalone tracking and analysis system in the second half of the year, even though the system is scheduled to be deployed in the first half of 2023.
