This is a money grab isn't it the South Korean goverment sees a lot of money moving about in crypto currency and they want to 'tax' it because why not?

The entire article sounded like excuses to me for why they need to be 'monitored' and of course if they are monitoring the might as well tax it right?

Baning it is no going to solve much so it sound more like a threat to me to make the exchanges more cooperative.
