The MODA’s primary focus is on information security related to these evolving sectors.
Taiwan’s Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC), headed by Huang Tian-mu, recently announced its responsibility for regulating the local cryptocurrency market.
This involves ensuring a clear distinction between crypto trading platforms’ assets and customer holdings, supervising product listings on exchanges, and implementing protective measures for customers.
