A court in South Korea has supported the decision of local exchanges to delist Wemade’s Wemix (WEMIX) tokens, dismissing Wemade’s request to cancel the delisting.
The Seoul Central District Court ruled on Dec. 7 to justify the decision of the Digital Asset eXchange Alliance (DAXA) to delist WEMIX from major South Korean exchanges, The Korea Herald prijavljeno u četvrtak.
The DAXA, a crypto exchange group representing South Korea’s largest firms like Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit and Gopax, said that Wemade has failed to properly disclose the number of tokens outstanding.
The court has reportedly podržano the position of the DAXA, emphasizing the importance of transparent reporting of token’s distribution, stating:
“Kripto imovina nema regulatora niti apsolutno sredstvo za određivanje njihove cijene poput tržišta dionica […] Stoga je broj distribucije ključan jer se cijena odlučuje kao rezultat ravnoteže između ponude i potražnje.”
In response to the latest ruling, Wemade argued that the firm will continue the legal battle against DAXA and will appeal the court’s order.
“We will continue to make efforts to prove the injustice of DAXA’s decision,” the firm reportedly said, adding that it also plans to file a suit. Additionally, the firm is planning to send a complaint to the Korea Fair Trade Commission, which is a major regulatory authority for economic competition in the country.
The court’s ruling came shortly after Wemade filed a petition for a preliminary injunction on Nov. 28, after DAXA member exchanges first delisted WEMIX in late November.
Founded in 2000, Wemade is a South Korean video game developer, podržan by major global tech companies, including Microsoft. The firm pokrenut its gaming-related Wemix blockchain platform alongside the eponymous token in late 2019.
