Korean exchange UpBit has stated that it will not accept anonymous Litecoin transactions through MimbleWimble. If such a need arises, then the platform may even delist the altcoin.
A similar statement was made by the Bithumb exchange. Other leading Korean exchanges Korbit and Coinone have not yet published any official comments in connection with the update of the Litecoin network, which took place on May 20.
