[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Paul Lee] Bithumb, a virtual asset exchange, has extended its partnership contract with NH Nonghyup for one more year to issue a real-name deposit and withdrawal account (hereinafter referred to as a real-name account). Originally, Bithumb was reported to have contacted other Internet banks, including Kakao Bank, to increase customer accessibility, but it was concluded to renew the contract with NH Nonghyup Bank.
Bithumb announced on the 17th that it is in the final stage of renewing its contract with NH Nonghyup to issue a real-name account. The contract between Bithumb and NH Nonghyup expires on the 24th.
Bithumb has signed a real-name account contract with NH Nonghyup Bank for five years from 2018. Since signing the first real-name account contract, the company has renewed its contract through due diligence at banks every six months, and has signed a one-year contract for the first time since March last year.
