Speaking at an internal meeting of the Internet Finance Rectification Working Group on Monday, Pan Gongsheng reiterated that ICOs, “disguised” ICOs and crypto asset trading are illegal in the country, and represent illicit forms of fundraising and securities issuance.
Although China issued an outright ban on ICOs in September 2017, Pan said a lot of the projects that moved overseas as a result are still making themselves available in the Chinese market, according to a report from local business media source Yicai.
The report did not offer details on how the body intends to curb access to foreign ICOs and crypto trading.
In January, Pan notably pushed for wider cryptocurrency trading ban in China according to an internal memo circulated at the time.
In March, however, the platform issued a statement saying that it would monitor threads and ban those who use the platform to solicit investors in ICO tokens.
