Catchy title again. Title should be -> Korean exchange halts crypto trading due to its incompetence.

If you can't get your shit together, then it's logical and the only legal option to halt your operations till you sort it out, because otherwise you're basically operating on illegal ground. This incompetence again leads to user damage because there is no way for people to buy or sell in a market being as heavily active as it is right now. I definitely understand that the higher demand and quickly changing laws are quite hard to catch up on in some cases, but if you run an exchange where you are supposed to serve the users, at least try to do your best in making them not experience any problems. Seriously, shame on the shitty centralized exchanges of current times.
