PANews reported on February 13 that, according to foreign media reports, due to a Bithumb incident where a "unit error" led to the erroneous distribution of BTC to event winners, Coinone's partner KakaoBank and Upbit's partner K-Bank are closely evaluating and carefully considering the renewal of their real-name account contracts. KB Kookmin Bank, which also partners with Bithumb, has requested strengthened internal controls before renewing its contract next month, concerned about the potential spillover of reputational risks.
