What the law actually says

Is Nasdaq 100 (XYZ100) trading legal in South Korea?

Spot crypto is legal in South Korea and sits inside a registration regime with two layers. On top of that, the Act on the Protection of Virtual Asset Users took effect on 19 July 2024 and added protection of user deposits and assets, rules against unfair trading such as price manipulation, and supervisory and sanctioning powers over VASPs. The regime is still tightening: on 11 August 2026 the cabinet approved a revision to the Enforcement Decree imposing stricter registration requirements and enhanced AML duties on VASPs.

What the contract is

The contract itself does not change by geography: a XYZ100 perpetual settles in USDC everywhere.
