The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority targeted 146 crypto companies in a new warning, following the rollout of the new promotional rules which require companies to register with the FCA.



The warning, which is the first since the rules went into effect, is the latest in a series from the FCA to attempt curbing illegal financial promotions targeting UK customers.&nbsp;



As part of the warning, the FCA published a warning list of those who have not registered with the FCA. The list includes KuCoin and Huobi, among others.



“We take a risk-based approach, so not all firms of potential concern will be added straight away. This list will be continually updated as we identify firms which may be illegally communicating crypto asset promotions and are failing to engage with us constructively,” the FCA <a href="https://www.fca.org.uk/news/statements/fca-issues-146-alerts-first-24-hours-new-crypto-marketing-regime">said</a> in its warning.



Some companies, including OKX and Binance,<a href="https://blockworks.co/news/okx-uk-marketing-fca-compliance"> announced that they’re working to comply</a> with the FCA’s promotional rules.&nbsp;



Komainu joined the ranks of <a href="https://blockworks.co/tag/fca">FCA</a>-registered companies on Friday, Oct. 6. Under the new rules, Komainu is registered as a custodian wallet provider. 



“This is a key regulatory milestone as the UK remains one of the most important hubs for financial technology and innovation that will spur the convergence of traditional and decentralized finance,” CEO Nicolas Bertrand said.



<a href="https://blockworks.co/news/paypal-halts-uk-crypto">PayPal announced in August that it was “temporarily” pausing</a> the ability of UK customers to buy crypto on its platform so that it could ensure it followed the new regulations. PayPal is aiming to offer the services again in 2024, according to reports.&nbsp;



ByBit also <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/bybit-uk-market-activity-suspended-crypto-regulations">announced that it would be suspending services</a> in late September.&nbsp;



“Bybit has made a choice to embrace the regulation proactively and pause our services in this market,” it said in a blog post at the time.&nbsp;

FCA issues another warning to unregistered crypto firms as promotional rules take effect

Sebastian Sinclair

Several exchanges popular throughout Asia have updated their terms of service, tightening know-your-customer (KYC) protocols ahead of upcoming regulatory changes across the region.



Seychelles-based Bitget said Sunday it was updating its KYC measures in a bid to comply with requirements, including the city-state’s recently updated guidelines for banks.



Directives from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) — both a central bank and regulator — are advising financial institutions to put in place appropriate <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/on-chain-monitoring-risk-management">risk management procedures</a>.&nbsp;



It comes as MAS shut down Digital Payment Token (DPT) service providers from “facilitating lending and staking of DPT tokens by their retail customers,” <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/singapore-thailand-ban-crypto-staking">Blockworks previously reported</a>.



As such, Bitget, alongside KuCoin and OKX — considered to be some of the more popular platforms for Asia-based crypto traders, including Singapore — is advising users to update their KYC verification ahead of next month.



“Starting from Oct. 1, users who have not completed level 1 KYC verification will only be able to withdraw, cancel orders, redeem subscriptions and close positions, being restricted from creating new trading orders,” the exchange said.



KuCoin and OKX, both headquartered in Seychelles following China’s crackdown on digital assets in 2017, have also recently updated their KYC policies. Bitget currently ranks 16th among exchanges ranked by trading volume over a 24-hour period, Coingecko data <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/exchanges">shows</a>. OKX and KuCoin rank 7th and 22nd respectively.



While KuCoin had implemented KYC on its platform back in 2018, the exchange said it has strengthened its identity verification procedures — with users needing to upload documents and complete face checks. The changes are expected to take effect at the <a href="https://www.kucoin.com/support/360015102254">end of this month</a>.



OKX, which also updated its terms last week, said users would need to submit a selfie using a government-issued ID — to be stored by the exchange — in order to use all its services.



While Singapore represents the clearest jurisdiction digital asset service providers are shifting focus towards, it isn’t the only one.&nbsp;



Earlier this year, Japan <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/japan-crypto-anti-money-laundering-rules">sought to tighten anti-money laundering measures</a> designed to better track crypto transactions, answering calls from other countries.



Also, starting next year, South Korea&#8217;s <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/financial-statements-must-include-crypto-south-korea-regulator">Financial Services Commission</a> will require companies to include details about their crypto holdings, anticipated value, and related business models in their financial statements to align crypto accounting with conventional financial reporting.



All measures point towards a tightening regulatory environment across the region, with crypto service providers adhering to, or seemingly positioning for, changes long-overlooked by financial officials.

Regulatory landscape across Asia prompts exchanges to enhance KYC measures

James Cirrone

KuCoin said its mining pool will go offline “until further notice” in less than two weeks from Wednesday.



The pool, which supports proof-of-work coins such as bitcoin and litecoin, will suspend operations on Aug. 15 at 12 pm ET.&nbsp;



KuCoin told Blockworks the move is the result of shifting priorities for its broader business.



“The decision to suspend operations of KuCoin Pool was made to align with our evolving business strategy of focusing on core businesses and providing users with a safer and more user-friendly trading platform,” a KuCoin representative told Blockworks.



In its <a href="https://www.kucoin.com/announcement/en-announcement-kucoin-pool-to-temporarily-suspend-operations">announcement</a>, the crypto exchange recommended that users move their miners to alternative mining pools before the Aug. 15 deadline. The firm also advised users to back up their mining data before Aug. 27.



“We wish to emphasize that the security and integrity of your assets are our utmost priority. Throughout this suspension, you will retain complete access and control over your assets, and all other KuCoin offerings remain operational as usual,” the exchange wrote in a statement.



According to <a href="https://btc.com/stats/pool">BTC.com</a>, KuCoin’s mining pool is the ninth-largest in terms of hash rate share, comprising 1.2% of the network total over the past three days. 



KuCoin’s bitcoin mining pool produced 8.24 exahashes per second (EH/s) by the time of publication, while the litecoin pool produced 3.84 terahashes per second (TH/s).&nbsp;



By comparison, <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/bitcoin-miners-growth-2023">Riot Platforms reported a deployed hash rate of 10.7 EH/s as of June 30</a>.



KuCoin has faced other headwinds in the last few months. <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/eth-security-alleges-nyag">New York Attorney General Letitia James sued the crypto exchange in January</a>, and more recently, <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/layoffs-at-atmta">reports emerged of layoffs</a> at the company. Representatives for KuCoin have denied the characterization of layoffs.

KuCoin’s mining pool to halt operations ‘until further notice’

Reports of layoffs at crypto companies dominated the headlines this week.&nbsp;



Among them is Blockchain gaming company ATMTA, which cut positions by about 80% compared to its peak in late 2022.&nbsp;



After laying off 122 employees in the latest round, ATMTA CEO Michael Wagner said in a letter that a core team of 45 people would remain. That team, Wagner said, will focus on building Star Atlas, an upcoming blockchain-based game.



Wagner reiterated that ATMTA was impacted by the FTX collapse, which perhaps spurred <a href="https://medium.com/the-hologram/star-atlas-developer-atmta-begins-staff-reductions-e2edbbda516f">the first round of layoffs</a> that began in December. <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/estefanr_today-marks-the-end-of-my-journey-with-star-activity-7009637343762468864--NH7/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop">One notable departure</a> was <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/estefanr/">Estefan Vazquez</a>, the former head of growth for Star Atlas.



“We lost approximately $15 million from our treasury with the collapse of FTX, which represented a significant portion of our liquid cash balance. Even with the recovery in January of a sizable portion of those funds, our runway was greatly reduced,” Wagner wrote in his letter.



KuCoin is reportedly laying off about 30% of its workforce of nearly 1,000 employees, crypto journalist Colin Wu&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/WuBlockchain/status/1683821842447106048" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a>&nbsp;Tuesday. Wu cited three employees with knowledge of the situation.



When reached for comment following Wu&#8217;s report, KuCoin denied the layoff characterization.



In June, <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/kucoin-enforces-kyc-verification">KuCoin made know-your-customer verification mandatory</a>, a move that came months after <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/eth-security-alleges-nyag">New York Attorney General Letitia James sued the Seychelles-based company</a> for operating as an unregistered securities and commodities broker-dealer.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Block makes changes to its board</h2>



Block, the financial services company behind Cash App, Square and Spiral, appointed <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nnarula/">Neha Narula</a> to its board of directors on Thursday, according to an <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1512673/000119312523196098/d539859d8k.htm">SEC filing</a>.&nbsp;



Block also increased the size of the number of directors on the board from 11 to 12 with Narula’s appointment.&nbsp;



Narula was selected for her “valuable experience” in the field of Bitcoin and open-source technology, according to the filing. She has served as the director of the Digital Currency Initiative at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology since January 2017.&nbsp;



“Neha’s passion for building intuitive, scaled systems to move money across the Internet efficiently fits into our company’s purpose,” Block CEO Jack Dorsey said in a <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1512673/000119312523196098/d539859dex991.htm">statement</a>.&nbsp;

Crypto hiring: More layoffs at ATMTA, Dorsey’s Block gains new board member

KuCoin is making know-your-customer verification mandatory to better comply with regulations.



The exchange will restrict users who don’t go through know-your-customer, or KYC, registration from accessing certain features. According to a press release, non-KYC users will only be able to use “spot trading sell orders, futures trading deleveraging, margin trading deleveraging, KuCoin Earn redemption, and ETF redemption.”&nbsp;



Withdrawals will still be available, but deposit services will not.



“With the development of the cryptocurrency industry, crypto has gradually moved from a geek towards mass adoption. However, this process has also brought about certain security issues concerning on-chain assets,” KuCoin CEO Johnny Lyu <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230628022769/en">said</a> in a statement.&nbsp;



The new KYC registration goes into effect on July 15.&nbsp;



Binance, in 2021, made a similar move. It <a href="https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/important-changes-about-binance-identity-verification-51bf294e26324211a4731ca998e110ca">announced</a> that new users had to go through an “intermediate verification” process to access Binance’s services and products. Through the process, users had to verify their country of residence and nationality and provide a government-issued ID.&nbsp;



KuCoin’s move comes after it faced legal action from multiple countries.&nbsp;



In March of this year, <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/eth-security-alleges-nyag">New York Attorney General Letitia James sued KuCoin</a>, claiming that the Seychelles-based company operated in New York without registering as a securities and commodities broker-dealer.&nbsp;



KuCoin, however, was not the only crypto company targeted by James as the <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/crypto-fraud-needs-order">NYAG cracks down on crypto</a>. 



In June 2022, Canada’s Ontario Securities Commission <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/canadian-regulator-fines-bybit-kucoin-for-securities-law-violations">banned KuCoin from operating in the Ontario province</a> and fined the company 2.1 million Canadian dollars, or roughly $1.6 million.

KuCoin enforces mandatory know-your-customer verification

Casey Wagner

New York Attorney General Letitia James became the first regulator in the US to claim in court that ethereum is a security in a lawsuit against exchange KuCoin.&nbsp;



Seychelles-based KuCoin has been operating in New York without registering as a securities and commodities broker-dealer, James alleged in the <a href="https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2023/attorney-general-james-continues-crackdown-unregistered-cryptocurrency-platforms">suit</a>.&nbsp;



KuCoin facilitates trading of ETH, James added, “a speculative asset that relies on the efforts of third-party developers in order to provide profit to the holders of ETH.” The exchange should have registered before offering ETH, LUNA and TerraUSD — all of which fall under the securities classification, according to James.



However, the NYAG may not have the final say on the issue. Rostin Behnam of the CFTC told the Senate Agriculture Committee as recently as Wednesday that <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/ethereum-stablecoins-commodities-not-securities-cftc">ETH is in fact a commodity</a>, not a security. 



“We would not have allowed the Ether futures product to be listed on a CFTC exchange if we did not feel strongly that it was a commodity asset,” he explained.



SEC leaders have made similar statements. In 2018, <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/sec-emails-highlighting-alleged-conflict-of-interest-set-to-take-center-stage-in-ripple-trial">William Hinman</a>, the then-Director of Corporate Finance at the SEC, said in a speech that both bitcoin and ETH are not securities. His justification was that bitcoin is “decentralized” and ETH, despite its 2014 initial coin offering, had become “sufficiently decentralized” over the past four years to make it a non-security.&nbsp;



The Office of the State Attorney General (OAG) confirmed KuCoin’s alleged unlawful actions because OAG Detective Brian Metz has been transacting on the exchange from New York since May 2022, the lawsuit states.&nbsp;



KuCoin’s lending and staking product, KuCoin Earn, is also an unregistered security offering, the lawsuit alleges.&nbsp;



The OAG served KuCoin a subpoena on Jan. 10, 2023 but respondents did not reply and failed to appear to testify on the date specified in the subpoena, the lawsuit claims.&nbsp;



The lawsuit is similar to a suit brought against exchange <a href="https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2023/attorney-general-james-sues-cryptocurrency-platform-failing-register-new-york">CoinEx</a> in February alleging the exchange offered trading services for tokens including AMP, LUNA and LBC, all of which the Attorney General’s office says are securities.&nbsp;

<div id="highlights-block_62ceb4c0f75f0" class="highlights">
 <ul>
 <li>KuCoin found sentiment is shifting negative among Saudi Arabian crypto investors</li>
 <li>76% of local digital asset holders have less than one year’s experience in the market</li>
 </ul>
 
</div>



Bitcoin discourse has been swept by a fresh conspiracy-meme that posits Saudi Arabian investors are ready to bid billions on the top cryptocurrency, saving us all from the ongoing bear market.



Such a move would diversify the Kingdom’s reserves away from oil into ‘digital gold,’ securing its financial future in a world that hopes to one day shed its fossil fuel dependency — or so goes the theory.



But if a recent report from cryptocurrency exchange KuCoin is anything to go by, it’s mostly unfounded.



Based on a commissioned survey, KuCoin found the estimated total number of Saudi crypto investors has remained relatively stable all year, at around 3 million. But their sentiment is shifting negative, the exchange found.



The report states: “In the first quarter, around half (49%) of crypto investors intended to increase investment in crypto over the coming six months, followed by the bearish market when we saw the intention slightly drop in the second quarter of 2022, as more investors changed their strategies.”



KuCoin highlighted crypto adoption in Saudi Arabia is lower than the global average, and comes in third across the Arab world in terms of raw investor numbers. Growth in the number of registered KuCoin users from Saudi Arabia did however lead the other <a href="https://www.gcc-sg.org/en-us/AboutGCC/MemberStates/pages/Home.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">GCC countries</a> throughout 2021.

</div></figure>



A majority (63%) of Saudi crypto investors are men, according to the survey, and persons below 30 years of age make up at least one third of all investors, with that figure rising to 37% throughout this year’s second quarter.



The report noted that the high proportion of fresh investors across Saudi Arabia is unique to their profile.&nbsp;



“Roughly three-quarters (76%) of crypto investors have less than one year of experience in crypto investment, including half (49%) of investors who first started trading crypto in the past six months, suggesting strong demand for crypto education in the market,” KuCoin wrote.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Saudi investors adopt trading bots to beat bear market</h3>



Saudi Arabians are generally investing in cryptocurrency for the long-term, the report found. 51% of surveyed digital asset holders are in crypto as they believe it’s the future of finance, while 44% reckon crypto can reap higher returns than other types of financial investments.



Although, KuCoin relayed that in this year’s second quarter, 42% of crypto investors adopted auto-trading strategies — such as trading bots — to see them through the bear market, a 7% rise from Q1.&nbsp;



Cryptocurrency exists in a legal gray area across the country, with local banks banned from handling transactions related to digital assets since 2018. And while there are no legal dangers for trading cryptocurrency, Saudi-based investors often pay close attention to what types of investments are approved under Islamic law (halal).



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_diuIiQUGG9YRKpcNOmwy-NahZTJQCZuhRgpqNZn887zMDAY2gpnewob_RkwGhYwJf_04kyJSVjVgjJLt6PAKmogYtO_wW-Zdc_M5dOu6dEOEAo0W8K1XKFpfux15XCxiLXmEr82iymY822olH5sLJc" alt=""/><figcaption>Source: <a href="https://www.kucoin.com/blog/kucoin-into-the-cryptoverse-reveals-increase-in-number-of-saudi-arabian-crypto-investors-adopting-auto-trading-strategies-in-bearish-market">KuCoin</a></figcaption></figure>



According to KuCoin’s report, which was based on just 539 survey respondents, almost half of Saudi crypto investors buy crypto with fiat and spot trade every month, as it’s the only form of crypto trading considered halal by some scholars in the Arab world.&nbsp;



Staking, futures trading and margin trading — involve interest and even gambling — are less popular.



As for what investors plan to do with their potential gains, 42% said they plan to improve their families’ living conditions, with other goals including buying a new house, saving for retirement or emergencies and other creature comforts like traveling and shopping.

‘Saudis Bidding’ Meme Undermined by Crypto Investor Survey

Shalini Nagarajan

<div id="highlights-block_62b4597cb0d8f" class="highlights">
 <ul>
 <li>“Unlike KuCoin, Bybit responded to the OSC’s enforcement action,” the OSC said</li>
 <li>KuCoin is barred from operating in Ontario, while Bybit continues to work on registration</li>
 </ul>
 
</div>



The Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) has hit two foreign cryptocurrency exchanges with enforcement actions after finding they failed to comply with securities laws there. KuCoin has been banned from operating in the Ontario province, while Bybit agreed to pay a fine as it works with the authority to register appropriately.



“Bybit and KuCoin both operate unregistered cryptoasset trading platforms and allowed Ontario investors to trade securities without a prospectus or any exemption from the prospectus requirements,” the regulator said in a <a href="https://www.osc.ca/en/news-events/news/osc-holds-global-crypto-asset-trading-platforms-accountable" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">statement</a> on Wednesday.



KuCoin, based in Seychelles, has been ordered to pay an administrative penalty of about C$2.1 million ($1.6 million), including investigative charges. Meanwhile, Singapore-based Bybit has reached a settlement with the regulator for about $2.5 million.



“Foreign cryptoasset trading platforms that want to operate in Ontario must play by the rules or face enforcement action,” Jeff Kehoe, OSC’s enforcement director, said.&nbsp;



Bybit has agreed to continue working with the OSC to register its platform. In the event that registration talks fail, the exchange will close its operations with Ontario, the regulator said.&nbsp;



“Unlike KuCoin, Bybit responded to the OSC’s enforcement action, maintained an open dialogue, provided requested information, and committed to engaging in registration discussions,” the regulator said.



Existing Bybit retail customers in Ontario will be asked to close their positions in some restricted products involving leverage, margin or the extension of credit. The exchange <a href="https://cms.blockworks.co/bybit-to-slash-staff-citing-turbulent-markets/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">told Blockworks</a> this week it’s looking to cut employee headcount by removing overlapping functions. 



The penalties come a little more than a year after the Canadian regulator warned exchanges operating in Ontario to contact the OSC by April 19, 2021 for registration or face enforcement action.



“Despite this warning, Bybit and KuCoin did not contact the OSC by the deadline and continued operations in Ontario,” the regulator said.



Authorities have been keeping a closing eye on cryptocurrency products as interest grows in the relatively nascent investment space. Earlier this year, crypto lender BlockFi agreed to pay <a href="https://cms.blockworks.co/crypto-lender-blockfi-to-pay-100m-in-fines-to-us-regulators/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">$100 million in penalties</a> to the Securities and Exchange Commission over allegations it illegally offered a high-interest yield product. 



The rulings could lead to hesitation among North American investors to invest in cryptoassets as a result of the jurisdiction&#8217;s harsh regulatory framework, according to Sheraz Ahmed, managing partner at STORM Partners.&nbsp;



He thinks the exchanges themselves won’t be too concerned about financial penalties, as they have been operating successfully for years. “Fines are always preferable to complete bans, and sometimes it is better to ask for forgiveness than permission,” he said.
