Digital Asset Market Research Group Launched... First Outcome: "Trends in Regulation" Report

The Digital Asset Exchange Alliance (DAXA) and the Korea Capital Market Institute announced on September 11 that they have launched the "Digital Asset Market Research Group," a joint research initiative aimed at fostering the healthy development of the domestic digital asset market and establishing an academic foundation. As the first outcome of this collaboration, they have published a report titled "Trends in Digital Asset Market Regulation."

The report is divided into two main sections: "Focus on Overseas Digital Asset Market Regulation" (authored by Kim Gaprae, Head of the Financial Law Research Center) and "Trends in Domestic Digital Asset Market Regulation" (authored by Senior Researcher Shin Kyunghee). It features an in-depth analysis of the significance of the GENIUS Act, enacted by the U.S. Congress in July, and provides a detailed examination of major digital asset-related bills proposed in the 22nd National Assembly, offering a comprehensive overview of regulatory changes both in Korea and abroad. The report will be distributed through the DAXA website and the Korea Capital Market Institute website.

Through the launch of the "Digital Asset Market Research Group," DAXA and the Korea Capital Market Institute plan to continuously select topics aligned with the new government's digital asset policy pledges and to conduct ongoing research and investigations. Their goal is to provide reliable information and in-depth analysis to stakeholders such as policymakers, market participants, and investors, thereby supporting rational decision-making.

Kim Sewan, President of the Korea Capital Market Institute, stated, "I hope that the trends in digital asset market regulation will serve as a knowledge base that practically supports the national agenda of building a digital asset ecosystem." Oh Sejin, Chairman of DAXA, commented, "The publication of this report is highly significant as it marks DAXA's first research and investigation activity covering the entire domestic digital asset market. We are pleased to offer in-depth analysis that combines academic expertise with the practical needs of the market through close cooperation with the Korea Capital Market Institute."
