Bitcoin Price Surges Past $83.5K as Kucoin and MEXC Go Dark in Korea

A UK court has restricted the legal path for victims regarding a £3.8bn Bitcoin seizure. Simultaneously, South Korea's Financial Intelligence Unit, the anti-money laundering arm of the Financial Services Commission, has ordered domestic access blocks on 27 unregistered offshore crypto exchange websites. This action includes Kucoin, MEXC, and BingX, extending previous mobile app bans to web access due to risks. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin price has surged past $83.5K amid these regulatory developments in both regions.
