Abstract

We propose a plan to reduce the operational risk of domestic cryptocurrency exchanges for protecting cryptocurrency exchange users and establishing a stable operating environment. For market participants using cryptocurrency exchanges, cryptocurrency exchange risk is greater than the price risk. In the cryptocurrency market, illegal transactions using the anonymity of cryptocurrency are occurring frequently. In addition, loss accidents due to cybercrimes and insider corruptions are continuing. And the resulting losses are passed on to the users of the exchange. In terms of operational risk, we analyze the current situation of domestic cryptocurrency exchanges and present the direction of development of each exchange platform to attract and protect users.

본 논문에서는 암호화폐거래소 이용자를 보호하고 거래소의 안정적인 운영환경을 확보하기 위한 국내 암호화폐거래소 운영리스크 경감방안을 제시한다. 암호화폐거래소를 이용해 암호화폐시장에 참여하는 시장참여자에게 암호화폐의 가격변동 리스크만큼 위협적인 리스크는 암호화폐거래소 리스크이다. 암호화폐시장에서는 암호화폐의 거래 익명성을 악용한 탈세, 범죄이용, 유사수신 사기, 자금세탁 등 불법거래가 빈번히 발생하고 있고 이외에도 사이버 침해사고와 내부인력에 의한 손실 사고가 끊이지 않고 있으며, 이로 인한 손실이 거래소 이용자에게 고스란히 전가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 국내 암호화폐거래소의 운영 실태와 이용자 손실 발생 사고에 대한 대응 등을 거래소 운영리스크의 관점에서 분석하여, 이용자를 고객으로 유치하고 고객인 이용자를 보호하기 위한 거래소 플랫폼의 발전 방향을 제시한다.
