  • Mimblewimble Extension Blocks (MWEB) upgrade violates the country’s laws
  • Users in South Korea cannot trade the crypto asset using the won currency
  • Litecoin Price at the time of writing – $43.17

Five South Korean digital money trades as of late said they will delist litecoin in light of the fact that the crypto resource’s Mimblewimble Extension Blocks (MWEB) update disregards the nation’s regulations. 

Subsequently, the trades’ clients can’t utilize the Korean won to exchange the crypto resource, which has since been named a dark coin.

Redesign Violates Specific Financial Information Act

Following the new Mimblewimble Extension Blocks (MWEB) move up to litecoin, five of South Korea’s significant digital money trades, specifically Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax, answered by reporting that they would delist the crypto resource. 

The trades contend that the redesign has made litecoin exchanges unknown, which is against the nation’s regulations.

As per a News1 report, the namelessness that was achieved by the Mimblewimble update disregards an arrangement in the Specific Financial Information Act which specifies that digital currency trades can’t deal with crypto coins that conceal move records.

In a proclamation, Upbit purportedly said that as per the Special Act, trades should check whether the transmission records can be confirmed for computerized resources with unknown transmission innovation, and go to proper lengths in the event that mysterious transmission innovation is found.

The upgrade that has seen LTC being labeled a dark coin

In May, an assertion from the Litecoin group said the exceptionally expected MWEB redesign had been enacted. The assertion made sense of that the overhaul is a fungibility-further developing innovation that upgrades secrecy between the shippers and recipients in an exchange. The sum being sent is just known between the source and beneficiary, the proclamation added.

In any case, because of this update that has seen LTC being marked a dull coin, clients in South Korea can’t exchange the crypto resource utilizing the won money on these trades. In any case, the News1 report said the trades have made plans to keep supporting LTC withdrawals for essentially a month.
