Most hilarious the part where the govt complains about the premiums that South Koreans pay, but it is their OWN STALINIST CRAP RULES that prevent arbitrage!!!
Governments are such filth, brrrrrrrrrrr........

Maybe this Mr. Park (or family and friends?) needed cheap coinz? This was fucking market manipulation, the guy should be thrown out of office and into jail.

If South Korea ban BTC trading, we will have the same effect as the "china will ban btc trading" : a big drop (panic selling + FUD) then a big raise of the price, because BTC price is not driven by south korea.
It did, but the huge increase hasn't happened yet, maybe it will happen in a few weeks from now or maybe in some days.
I am a little bit bored about the price, it is always going up, and then going down, when is all this kind of manipulation going to stop ? i am tired.
Those fluctuations are really killing my entire portfolio, more than -30% since all this dip started, it is all bleeding right now.
Lol, why not take advantage of the fluctuation? It will surely gives you pumped up! Especially when you are raking reward and profit from your genius move!. Though I admit The rading ban in South Korea do creates a huge impact in Bitcoin but then, I believe Bitcoin will rebound sooner than we expected
. Bitcoin crash means buying more Bitcoins!!.
Regulation is always the biggest obstacle for bitcoin development, especially if it comes from a Big country which has huge trading volume such as South Korea.
However, it may takes a long time for South Korea to ban cryptocurrency trading as: Once a bill is drafted, legislation for an outright ban of virtual coin trading within South Korea will require a majority vote of the total 297 members of the National Assembly, a process that could take months or even years.
Although, there is a chance that South Korea will not ban crypto trading if majority vote of 297 members of the National Assembly decide no to ban it.

Remember what happened after we had similar reports from China earlier.
I have also read that this is only related to certain exchanges.

Yeah, it all was a giant fud that made people sell their cryptos like crazy, and that is exactly what is happening on the market right now.
No offense, but i am not believing in this kind of FUDS anymore, it has already been clarified by the government if i am not wrong
And a lot of people who are from Korea have already said that trading/mining/exchanges were not going to be shutted down, so stop creating this kind of non-sense threads.
This news will clearly push the price down more as people will digest the impact and content of that article. Specifically, people who are new to crypto will most likely sell (already sold) their BTC after reading this article. The veteran ones will just likely shrug this off as they experienced this same kind of "FUD" in the past in a more greater scale. I think, South Korea will not ban it but they will put a very strict rule/regulation regarding tax payment for crypto trades. Well, I'm just hodling my BTC stack and will not budge because of this issue.
This is just an opportunity to make more money with bitcoin, the price will go down but after this the people that are now unable to trade at South Korea will move their money to other countries and exchanges, and then we will see a pump, this is nothing new, people making a fortune in crypto are not going to be stopped by something as small as this and true holders do not care at all about these news as well. 
I read the refutation of this news. It turned out that this is not true and panic is premature. South Korea did not prohibit bitcoin.
And I doubt that this could happen in the future.
The whole crypto space will be so big in the future, a tech savvy country like South Korea will definitely try to have a lead position in that new economy.
It definitely could happen in the future. It doesn't matter whether the country is big or small, tech-savvy or not, they can act against Bitcoin if they feel threatened. China has banned bitcoin exchanges while Venezuela is cracking down all miners and users. If bitcoin becomes too big, there is no reason why South Korea shouldn't act.
I saw that news new Users are in panic they should educate themselves bitcoin is good at all, governments should punish this employee who created this FUD https://news.bitcoin.com/no-mainstream-media-that-country-did-not-ban-bitcoin-again/?utm_source=OneSignal%20Push&utm_medium=notification&utm_campaign=Push%20Notifications
“There are great concerns regarding virtual currencies and [the] justice ministry is basically preparing a bill to ban cryptocurrency trading through exchanges,” justice minister Park Sang-ki said.[1]
News of the ban follows the raiding of local cryptocurrency exchanges by police and tax authorities over alleged tax evasion, as one of the key nations driving the demand for bitcoin and other virtual currencies attempts a clampdown.[2]
The value of bitcoin plunged 13.5% in the early hours of Thursday after news hit that South Korea is planning to ban cryptocurrency trading.[3]
Do you think the price will lose more?

If we get some more clarity and it is a definitive ban on crypto then that would push the price down some more but I feel not much more, while a major player in the market, the market can survive without South Korea if it comes to that. My understanding in fact is they're banning unregulated trading which makes sense.
The ban of one country will not become an obstacle to the development of bitcoin and other crypto-currencies. Only after the release of this news, many will sell their coins in a panic and slightly reduce the price of bitcoin.
they are consistently making negative comments about bitcoin, things like "ban bitcoin"; "bitcoin is used to commit crimes" have been very frequent to hear from South Korea in recent weeks, they have created a task force, they have invaded the exchange and all this events happened in less than a month... this is one more case that people should be prepared and forget the South Korean market just like China. Nothing good for bitcoin can come from South Korea if things continue as they are
And I doubt that this could happen in the future.
The whole crypto space will be so big in the future, a tech savvy country like South Korea will definitely try to have a lead position in that new economy.
they are very close to ban bitcoin and I do not see them changing their position so early

It looks like the Korean government is now arguing among themselves about the ban. It was a proposal from the Ministry of Justice but the Ministry of Finance said:
"We do not share the same views as the Ministry of Justice on a potential cryptocurrency exchange ban."

After the CHINA FUD dip the price shoot up and the market cap doubled or tripled, I learned my lesson - bought more BTC!
It looks like this whole panic is down to tax authorities visiting Bithumb (Korean exchange) and asking to audit them. See

It also looks like the Korean govt will be enforcing regulation rather than doing an outright ban.

I’m hearing that this is just being proposed by in person in the South Korean government and will not likely happen. But if I had coins on a South Korean exchange, I would consider taking those funds out. I think Binance is in Hong Kong so it should be ok. I don’t think these governments realize the impact to regular people that banning cryptocurrencies would have.
It seems right now that this is not true. Seems that the clarification coming out after a single person in government said they will ban cryptos is that they are just going after exchanges that aren't compliant with their rules. Basically South Korea is making crypto trading highly regulated and are cracking down on those who don't follow their laws, not in any way banning cryptos.
If South Korea ban BTC trading, we will have the same effect as the "china will ban btc trading" : a big drop (panic selling + FUD) then a big raise of the price, because BTC price is not driven by south korea.
