When investigating virtual currency transactions in Korea, the authorities may use a variety of tools and techniques to gather information and evidence. They may examine the blockchain, which is a public ledger that records all cryptocurrency transactions, to trace the flow of funds and it’s important to note that virtual currency transactions are complex and can involve parties from different jurisdictions. As a result, investigations can be challenging and time-consuming, and it may take some time for the authorities to gather all of the necessary information and evidence.
