The FMA stated that the total turnover of the 36 exchanges was around 60 billion Kazakhstani tenge ($112.8 million), with authorities seizing approximately 2.5 billion tenge ($4.8 million) in assets.<\/p>\n<p>This crackdown is part of Kazakhstan\u2019s ongoing campaign against unlicensed crypto services. In 2023, the FMA took action against 980 illegal exchanges and initiated nine investigations related to money laundering. Despite these efforts, several globally licensed exchanges, including Binance, Bybit, and Upbit, continue to operate legally within the country.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1\">Read More:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row post-145991\" href=\"\" title=\"\">\n        <div class=\"contentRight col-4\">\n            <span class=\"imgContainer mt-0\">\n                <img class=\"image img-defer\" src=\"\">\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"contentLeft col-8\">\n            <h4 class=\"title mb-0\"><\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Kazakhstan has been actively working with other government agencies, such as the National Security Committee and the Ministry of Culture and Information, to eliminate unlicensed exchanges.
