South Korean crypto asset management platform Haru Invest has suspended withdrawals and deposits, citing problems with service partners.
“Now we are further investigating the issue with them and developing a contingency plan to remedy the situation,” the statement said.
Representatives of the platform did not name a partner who influenced its activities.
