South Korea Unleashes Cutting-Edge AI to Crush Crypto Market Manipulation in 2026

2 min read

South Korea’s financial regulatory authority, the Financial Supervisory Service (FSS), has intensified its surveillance of the digital asset market through increased use of artificial intelligence (AI) to uncover and stop crypto market manipulation.

The FSS has upgraded its Virtual Assets Intelligence System for Trading Analysis (VISTA) by adding an automated detection algorithm that can identify potential price manipulation scenarios even without human involvement.

Automated Detection and Analysis

The recently developed algorithm incorporates a sliding window grid search technique in order to identify all possible sub-periods of a trading dataset, thus allowing for a complete investigation of potential manipulation windows.

The technique is highly efficient since it detected the entire previously identified times of manipulation and marked suspicious periods that were very hard to detect by usual analysis.

Extensive Enhancements

The FSS has received a budget of 170 million won ($116,000) for the year 2026 to upgrade VISTA’s functionalities by including state-of-the-art tools for the automated detection of coordinated trading account networks, abnormal trading pattern analysis, text analysis of thousands of crypto assets, and fund source tracing.

Summary

An expansion of the AI-based surveillance by the FSS marks a significant shift from human to automated, data-driven, legal enforcement in South Korea’s digital asset markets. As trading becomes ever more complex, this update will enable regulators to anticipate the tactics of potential manipulators, which in turn will result in a safer and more transparent crypto ecosystem.

Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown

Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown

The post Trump Owns $870 Million Bitcoin Amid Crypto Market Meltdown appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. President Donald Trump has quietly become one of the world’s largest Bitcoin (BTC) holders, even as the crypto market faces a historic meltdown. The revelation comes as Bitcoin and the broader crypto market struggle through one of their steepest declines in recent years. Trump Media’s $2 Billion Bitcoin Bet Makes President A Major Investors According to a Forbes report, Trump’s indirect Bitcoin exposure is now valued at around $870 million, placing him among the biggest investors in the digital asset space. Despite the crash, Trump’s holdings remain strong, showing his business’ growing ties to the crypto market. Forbes found that Trump’s holdings are not listed in any official government filings or financial disclosures. Instead, his exposure comes through his 41% stake in Trump Media and Technology Group, the parent company of Truth Social. Earlier this year, Trump Media raised $2.3 billion through debt and stock sales, using most of the proceeds to buy $2 billion worth of Bitcoin. The move aligns with MicroStrategy’s renewed interest in buying Bitcoin after not buying any last week. That move gave Trump a massive indirect stake in the world’s largest cryptocurrency. Trump Media’s Bitcoin Strategy Shows Trump’s Shift From Crypto Disbelief When the company chose to start holding BTC on its balance sheet, it represented a radical turning point from just being a social media company. Through the adoption of the same corporate treasury technique popularized by Michael Saylor’s Strategy Inc., Trump Media has become a U.S. company holding large amounts of Bitcoin. This shift mirrors the growing wave of institutional adoption. Recently, trillion-dollar asset manager Morgan Stanley opened crypto investments to all its wealth clients. According to Forbes, the company’s overall evaluation has fallen since its Bitcoin purchase. However, its Bitcoin reserves now make up the strongest part of its balance sheet. Trump’s…
