According to Decenter, the Financial Services Commission's Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) stated, "Bithumb's review of changing banks for real-name accounts is still in progress, and no conclusion has been reached." Earlier, a domestic media outlet reported that Bithumb's change of partner bank had been canceled due to the financial authorities' decision. A Bithumb official also clarified, "Nothing has been finalized regarding the conversion to a real-name account. We have not previously disclosed whether or not we will renew our real-name account with the virtual asset exchange or the contract period."
