82.9% of Korean crypto investors oppose tax rollout, survey finds

  • 73.7% oppose the tax; 51.5% of them would accept it after revisions
  • 73.5% call the 22% rate excessive; 65.2% say the 2.5M won deduction is too low
  • 69.7% plan to cut or stop investing once the tax takes effect
  • Report projects a 30% drop in trading volume at Korea's top three exchanges in 2027
Why it matters: The survey signals a risk of capital moving from Korean exchanges to global platforms and self-custody wallets once the tax starts.
