KBank is strengthening its blockchain transaction analysis capabilities and anti-money laundering (AML) framework to prepare for the institutionalisation of digital assets, including stablecoins. The bank said it has adopted TranSight, a blockchain transaction analysis solution from blockchain compliance specialist Bonanza Factory. TranSight analyses wallet addresses and transaction flows to assess risks linked to money laundering and other financial crimes. KBank said it plans to further upgrade on-chain monitoring, AML and risk management, and expand cooperation and technical verification with global financial institutions.

South Korea\'s Financial Services Commission warned that offshore platforms are offering ultra high-risk perpetual futures linked to Korean stocks, making investor protection difficult. It said some products offered by overseas digital asset exchanges allow leverage of several dozen times or more on shares such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. The FSC cited structural differences from conventional futures, round-the-clock trading and the lack of established oversight in many countries. It also flagged risks from high leverage and limited legal remedies for domestic investors.
