Asia’s weekly TOP10 crypto news: China Cracks Down Illegal Cross-border Trading, India Blocks Kalshi and Polymarket, Russia Monitors Large Crypto Transactions and Top10 News
1. China’s CSRC & 7 Departments Crack Down on Illegal Cross-Border Securities Activities link
Eight authorities including the China Securities Regulatory Commission jointly issued the Implementation Plan for Comprehensive Rectification of Illegal Cross-border Securities, Futures and Fund Business Activities. It explicitly bans overseas institutions from illegally providing account opening, trading, fund transfer and other services within the country in any form, and sets a two-year concentrated rectification period to clear existing illegal businesses. The plan also proposes strengthening cross-border regulatory cooperation and full-chain governance covering securities supervision, foreign exchange administration, cyber governance and crime crackdown.
The China Securities Regulatory Commission announced that Tiger Brokers (NZ) Limited, Futu Securities International (Hong Kong) Limited and Longbridge Securities (Hong Kong) Limited have conducted illegal cross-border businesses in violation of China’s securities, fund and futures laws and regulations. Without approval, the three institutions carried out securities marketing and transaction order processing services domestically, and illegally engaged in public fund sales and futures brokerage businesses. The regulator intends to confiscate all illegal gains and impose severe penalties in accordance with the law.
Futu Securities stated that it will comply with the latest regulatory guidelines of both regions and help existing mainland clients make proper arrangements. The company said it has fully suspended account applications from mainland applicants. Mainland clients holding assets accounted for 13% of the total by the end of the first quarter of 2026. Detailed regulatory rules have not been finalized, and subsequent arrangements will be released after the official rollout.
2. Hong Kong’s CRS2.0 Expands to Crypto, Exchanges & ATMs Included link
The global tax information exchange system CRS 2.0 is accelerating its rollout, with crypto-assets, CBDCs and certain e-money products included in the scope of financial asset reporting. Hong Kong plans to implement CRS 2.0 by 2026 and simultaneously advance the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). In the future, crypto exchanges, brokers and crypto ATM operators may be required to report information on crypto-asset conversions, swaps and transfers. It is reported that although mainland China has not yet announced a timeline for CRS 2.0 implementation, tax authorities in some regions have started notifying taxpayers since 2025 to self-examine overseas income and pay taxes in accordance with the law.
3. South Korea’s Crypto Tax Repeal Petition Hits 50k Signatures; Parliament to Review link
A Korean national petition to abolish the crypto tax plan scheduled to take effect in 2026 reached the 50,000-signature threshold at around 11:23 a.m. local time on Thursday and has been submitted to the National Assembly’s Legislation Committee for review. The plan imposes a 22% tax on crypto income exceeding 2.5 million won (approximately 1,650 U.S. dollars) and has been delayed three times due to disputes over fairness and inadequate infrastructure. Petitioners argue that taxing crypto gains is unfair to investors after South Korea scrapped capital gains tax on traditional financial investments such as stocks and bonds, and claim the current policy overly focuses on regulation and taxation while neglecting innovation and competitiveness in the domestic crypto industry.
4. Japan Opens Door to Foreign Trust Stablecoins as Electronic Payment Tools link
Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) announced on May 19 the final amendments to the Cabinet Office Ordinance on Electronic Payment Instrument Transaction Providers, etc., following public consultation, which will take effect on June 1, 2026. The core of the amendments is to explicitly include trust beneficiary rights established under foreign laws that meet the equivalence requirements of Japan’s electronic payment instrument system into the scope of electronic payment instruments under Japan’s Payment Services Act. The amendments also clarify that when handling foreign electronic payment instruments, electronic payment instrument transaction providers shall use equivalence with Japan’s system as the eligibility criterion; the relevant foreign trust beneficiary rights will be positioned as electronic payment instruments under the Payment Services Act and not regarded as securities under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.
In addition, Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) has formally approved a policy proposal titled “Next-Generation AI and On-Chain Finance Concept”, which aims to build a future financial system based on AI and blockchain technologies. The proposal focuses on supporting the construction of an automated financial infrastructure that underpins 24/7 AI Agent commercial activities, while promoting the development of tokenized deposits and yen stablecoins, including tokenizing Bank of Japan current account deposits and supporting the joint stablecoin issuance project by Japan’s three major banks.
5. India to Block Kalshi, Polymarket Censorship Order Issued link
An official from India’s Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology stated that the Indian central government has issued a blocking order against Polymarket and is advancing to issue a blocking order against Kalshi as early as Friday, enforcing the ban on prediction market platforms still operating in India. Reports indicate that Kalshi and Polymarket were previously ordered to cease operations in India but have continued to allow Indian users to register and trade. The relevant orders are expected to be issued under Section 69A of the Information Technology Act, requiring internet service providers to block access at the network level; intermediaries failing to comply may face up to seven years’ imprisonment and fines. India’s Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025, which took effect on May 1, prohibits real-money online games, as well as their provision, advertisement and related financial transactions.
6. Russia Mandates Monitoring for Crypto Transactions Over $138k link
Russia’s State Duma is reviewing a supporting bill parallel to the Digital Currency and Digital Rights Act. It plans to bring digital currency and digital rights transactions worth over approximately 13,800 US dollars under mandatory monitoring. Operations related to foreign economic contracts exceeding 138,000 US dollars between Russian residents and non-residents will also be monitored. The bill requires crypto exchanges to conduct customer identification, detect suspicious transactions, implement internal control, submit data to government authorities and cooperate with the Central Bank of Russia.
Ivan Chebeskov, Deputy Minister of Finance of Russia, stated at the Russian Digital Financial System conference that the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Russia intend to complete revisions to the cryptocurrency market regulation bill early next week for the second reading at the State Duma. Digital currencies and stablecoins will be classified as foreign exchange assets under the central bank’s previous regulatory framework.
7. Iran Launches Hormuz Safe, Bitcoin-Based Marine Insurance Platform link
Iran has launched the state-backed digital maritime insurance platform Hormuz Safe, which issues marine insurance policies for vessels transiting the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, with settlements made in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Backed by Iran’s Ministry of Economy, the platform aims to bypass SWIFT and Western intermediaries, reducing reliance on traditional financial infrastructure. Proponents within the Iranian government estimate that if it secures a meaningful share of the Persian Gulf shipping insurance market, revenue could exceed $10 billion. The platform still faces issues of international recognition and risks of U.S. secondary sanctions, with initial clients likely limited to vessels already operating in the sanctions gray area.
8. Tether Registers Trademark in Korea, Local Unit Likely link
The world’s largest stablecoin issuer, Tether, is accelerating its expansion into the South Korean market. Tether has recently filed seven trademark applications in South Korea, including for the corporate name “tether”, its logo, and the gold-backed stablecoin Tether Gold (XAUT). Previously, Tether’s trademark applications in South Korea focused mainly on stablecoin product names. Industry insiders believe this move indicates that Tether has begun preparing to enter the South Korean market and establish a local branch in the future.

Based on the latest estimates from a data firm, Iran currently controls approximately $7.7 billion in digital assets.
