Entry Amid New Crypto Regulations in Taiwan

JuCoin Exchange is entering the crypto market of Taiwan only a day after Taiwan’s Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) released the VASA Act Draft on March 25 for regulating the operations of Virtual Asset Service Act (VASA) providers and the country’s cryptocurrency industry.

The proposed framework seeks to establish clear guidelines for Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs), enhancing investor protection and ensuring compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations.

Key aspects of the draft include mandatory registration for VASPs, requiring all crypto exchanges operating in Taiwan to obtain a license. The FSC also introduces segregation of customer funds, ensuring that user assets are stored separately from company funds to prevent mismanagement. Additionally, foreign crypto firms must register locally to serve Taiwanese users, reinforcing government oversight.

Notably, between Q3 2021 and Q3 2022, crypto market of Taiwan experienced a 43% increase in cryptocurrency ownership, with a significant upward trend in adoption.

And now these new legislation enforces strict AML measures, requiring platforms to comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) policies and report suspicious transactions. Furthermore, the FSC seeks to ban unregistered platforms from operating within the country, ensuring a more secure trading environment.

What’s  Next? Building the Taiwanese version of ‘Web3 Silicon Valley’

Apart from marking its entry in the crypto market, JuCoin has also announced its future plans for the evolving crypto landscape in the country by aspiring to build a Taiwanese version of ‘Web3 Silicon Valley’.

The company has pledged investing 200 million TWD to empower the Taiwanese community which will fund its to-be launched “Taiwan Web3 Accelerator” initiative.

The Developer Support Fund will provide up to $500,000 in seed investments to support local AI, DePIN, and RWA projects, with priority listings on JuCoin Launchpad. This funding basically aims to accelerate blockchain innovation and encourage local startups to develop cutting-edge solutions.

In collaboration with National Taiwan University and the Blockchain Association, JuCoin will also be establishing the “Web3 Talent Training Camp” to train 500 compliance and technical professionals annually.

Thus, with another new player entering the crypto market of Taiwan, we can expect more advancements and adoption as the new regulation also takes shape.
