Crypto Exchangers from Taiwan

*Ordering in whenever I learned about them.

*Very brief Bitcoin situation in Taiwan, currently there is no regulation to crypto-currency, nor recognized as fiat money, it is rather a "Virtual Good". However, the regulation is being actively discussing, a proposal call, "regulatory sandbox" will meant to contain all financial activities that is not being regulated, and open to conversation. More official information please search: "Financial Supervisory Commission".

*New Taiwan Dollar = NTD, often use as TWD.
