#Japan ’s financial regulator, the Financial Services Agency (FSA), has officially requested Apple and Google to block five unregistered cryptocurrency exchanges from their app stores.
According to Nikkei, these exchanges are Bybit, MEXC Global, LBank, #KUCOIN and #Bitget . #Apple removed the relevant apps from the store in Japan on Thursday in response to the request. It has been learned that Google has not yet responded to this request.
It was determined that these companies were providing services in Japan through their apps and websites, despite the fact that they were offered a “cryptocurrency exchange” within the scope of the Payment Services Agreement that is required to operate in Japan. The FSA had previously warned them to stop their activities by publicly disclosing their names.
The removal process from app stores prevents new users from downloading these apps, and the opening through the website cannot be prevented. It is stated that the FSA is currently taking additional measures to ensure that users can access the service through the sites.
