> That was more South Korea’s own bad crypto policy’s fault

South Korean here, I wouldn’t say it was the government’s fault to enforce better security/crypto tech on the web when banking, right? To be strict, everything really started because of the US’s IMO useless export restrictions. Then it became a legacy that couldn’t be third of for ~20 yrs. I don’t think the policy was great, but it was reasonable at the time.

I think the point is that it wasn't better security. And nowadays it likely has no improvement or actually decreases security.
