ChainCatcher news, the latest report released by Tiger Research points out that despite South Korea's leading global position in cryptocurrency trading volume, the development of the country's Web3 industry is hindered by unclear regulations and a lack of specific guidance, resulting in accelerated outflow of capital, talent, and enterprises. The report mentions that in 2024, the transfer of South Korean crypto assets to overseas exchanges and DeFi platforms is expected to increase by 2.3 times year-on-year, primarily influenced by service interruptions at local exchanges and the attraction of external investment opportunities. Additionally, South Korean Web3 companies such as Nexpace, Klaytn, and Wemix have relocated their headquarters to regulatory-friendly countries like the UAE.The report also highlights that the outflow of talent has exacerbated the decline in the technological competitiveness of South Korea's Web3 ecosystem, while countries like the United States and the UAE have attracted high-end technical talent through clear policies. If South Korea wants to maintain its competitiveness in the global Web3 industry transformation by 2025, it urgently needs to promote regulatory reforms, allow corporate accounts to engage in crypto trading, and formulate policies related to stablecoins and DeFi to build a sustainable innovation ecosystem.
