DAXA Criticized for Lack of Records on VIP Benefit Disclosure Standards

South Korea's Digital Asset Exchange Alliance (DAXA) has been criticized for lacking records of its decision-making process behind recently implemented VIP benefit disclosure standards.

DAXA, a self-regulatory organization formed by major South Korean cryptocurrency exchanges, aims to promote market transparency and establish industry standards. However, the absence of procedural records makes it impossible to verify whether the rules were developed fairly or with adequate consideration of market impact.

The lack of documentation undermines the purpose of requiring exchanges to disclose VIP benefits, which was intended to shed light on potential preferential treatment among a select group of traders.
