The South Korean police have formally named Bithumb CEO Lee Jae-won as a suspect in their ongoing bribery investigation, mentioning that the CEO hired the son of an independent lawmaker as a political favor. The development is part of a series of charges and fines aimed at the exchange, leaving it managing one crisis after the other since the beginning of 2026.  As a show of trust, the board is expected to reappoint Lee to a new two-year term, betting on continuity over change.
