According to Crypto界.net, market sources indicate that Korea's leading securities firm, Korea Investment & Securities, is conducting a preliminary review of acquiring shares in Korea's third-largest crypto exchange, Coinone. They are currently working to persuade financial regulators and the National Assembly's Political Affairs Committee, following a similar process to the previous acquisition of Korbit by Future Asset Group. Coinone's current CEO, Cha Myung-hoon, holds a 53.44% stake, but upcoming regulatory changes may set a maximum shareholding limit for major shareholders at 15% - 20%, creating an entry window for external buyers.
