Crypto Traders On Edge As Korea Stalls Key Law — Is The “Kimchi Premium” At Risk Next?

The National Policy Committee of Korea has delayed the debate on the "second-phase" crypto framework until after the June local elections, creating uncertainty in the industry. The proposed Digital Asset Basic Act was excluded from the legislative agenda, despite its importance in regulating stablecoins and exchange ownership. Two major conflicts are stalling progress: first, a dispute between the Bank of Korea and the Financial Services Commission (FSC) over whether banks must hold a 51% stake in won-denominated stablecoin issuers. The FSC opposes this, arguing it would exclude tech firms and exchanges. Second, there is disagreement over equity caps for crypto exchanges, with proposals to limit major shareholders to 20%, affecting giants like Upbit and Bithumb. The delay leaves KRW stablecoin issuers in a gray zone and increases operational costs. Post-election, a bank-heavy stablecoin framework and tighter rules could favor large incumbents, reshaping market liquidity and altcoin listings. Weakening these rules could signal greater openness for crypto in Korea.

Flow Foundation Fights Korean Delisting After Binance Clears Crypto Security Fears

Flow Foundation and Dapper Labs have filed a motion with the Seoul Central District Court to halt the planned delisting of FLOW on major South Korean exchanges Upbit, Bithumb, and Coinone. The delisting followed a December protocol-level exploit that allowed the minting of duplicate tokens, though no user funds were lost. While global exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, and Kraken have since reviewed and fully restored FLOW trading—with Binance removing its monitoring tag—Korean platforms maintained heightened scrutiny. Flow expressed gratitude for the Korean community’s support and emphasized its commitment to the market through legal action, potential new listings, and ecosystem development. Despite regulatory challenges, Flow’s network continues to attract major partners like Disney and the NBA, with strong consumer adoption and NFT distribution.

Flow Foundation Seeks Court Order to Stop FLOW Token Delisting on South Korean Exchanges

Flow Foundation and Dapper Labs have filed a legal request with the Seoul Central District Court to halt the planned delisting of the FLOW token from major South Korean exchanges, including Upbit and Coinone. The delisting decision followed a December 2025 security exploit on the Flow blockchain, where an attacker duplicated tokens worth approximately $3.9 million. Although user funds were unaffected and validators quickly paused the network, exchanges proceeded with the delisting. The Foundation argues that FLOW continues to trade normally on global platforms like Binance and Coinbase, indicating its viability. The legal action aims to protect Korean investors and allow for further review, highlighting growing tensions between blockchain projects and exchanges after security incidents.

South Korea moves to block USDT and USDC from corporate trading – Details

South Korea's Financial Services Commission (FSC) is moving to exclude USD-based stablecoins like USDT and USDC from its upcoming corporate crypto trading guidelines. This decision aims to prevent indiscriminate investments in the early market stages and is partly due to the current legal framework not recognizing stablecoins as a valid external payment method. The proposed rules will allow eligible firms to invest up to 5% of their capital in crypto, but only in top assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, traded through regulated exchanges. This aligns with South Korea's broader push to promote the Korean Won-pegged stablecoins and reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar, a trend also emerging in other countries like China and Russia.

Korea Tones Down 20% Crypto Exchange Stake Ban as Regulators Seek Governance ‘Middle Ground’

South Korean regulators and the ruling party have agreed to impose a 20% ownership cap on major shareholders of cryptocurrency exchanges, following months of debate. The policy includes a three-year grace period for large platforms like Upbit and Bithumb, and up to six years for smaller exchanges. The cap, part of the broader Digital Asset Basic Act, aims to limit founder control while allowing limited exceptions for new businesses. Opposition from industry groups and some lawmakers may still affect the bill's final passage.

Korean Stock Market Crashes, Are Koreans Rushing into Crypto Again? This Project Team Got Slammed...

Amid a significant downturn in the South Korean stock market, there is growing discussion about Korean retail investors shifting heavily into cryptocurrency as an alternative. Observers note that Koreans have a strong cultural tendency toward leverage and speculative investment, which may be driving renewed interest in crypto assets like Bitcoin, seen as a potential safe haven during economic instability. Bitcoin’s price recovery and increased institutional buying are also highlighted, with price targets such as $87,000 and even $100,000 being discussed. Some attribute Bitcoin’s strength to its perceived reliability during times of geopolitical tension. Additionally, former U.S. President Donald Trump is mentioned as pushing for clearer cryptocurrency regulation, which could bring more certainty to the market—though some express skepticism about his motives. The article also covers controversy around the project "Opinion" on the BSC chain, which has drawn criticism for its handling of user rewards and airdrops, leading to broader discussions about the sustainability of airdrop models and the need for genuine user engagement rather than speculative farming. The content is compiled from social media platforms and does not constitute investment advice.

Will Espresso [ESP] hit $1B valuation? Korean listings spark 80% explosion

Espresso (ESP) surged 80% in 24 hours to $0.173, driven by aggressive capital inflows following its listings on major Korean exchanges Upbit and Bithumb. The breakout was supported by explosive volume of $881M and record Open Interest of $56.03M, indicating strong speculative and spot demand. Historically, Korean listings fuel extended rallies, and with support from Binance and Coinbase, the project's infrastructure narrative gained significant momentum. This capital rotation suggests a potential path toward a $1B valuation, though sustainability depends on continued demand and stable liquidity.

Bank of Korea Urges Bank-Led Won Stablecoin Issuance

The Bank of Korea (BOK) has urged that the issuance of Korean won-pegged stablecoins should be led by commercial banks, warning that private issuance could undermine monetary policy and create foreign exchange and financial stability risks. In a report submitted to the National Assembly, the central bank described stablecoins as "currency-like substitutes" and emphasized that their rollout must consider broader economic impacts, not just industrial profits. The BOK expressed concerns that stablecoins could be used to circumvent foreign exchange regulations and stressed that non-bank issuers might conflict with Korea’s separation of banking and commerce principles. It recommended that banks, which are subject to strict regulatory standards, should be the primary issuers, with any expansion beyond banks proceeding cautiously after risk assessments. The report reflects ongoing debates among policymakers about who should be allowed to issue won stablecoins and echoes the BOK’s previous warnings on the matter. While acknowledging stablecoins' potential role in the digital asset revolution, the bank proposed structural safeguards, including a bank-focused consortium model and a statutory interagency policy body for oversight. The BOK cited the U.S. GENIUS Act as an example of cross-agency supervision. However, this bank-led approach has faced opposition from industry members, including some policymakers, who argue that clearer rules for issuers could sufficiently mitigate risks.

XRP Sees Re-Accumulation Signals From Korean Trading Desks As Traders Quietly Build Positions

Despite months of bearish performance, XRP is showing signs of re-accumulation, particularly from South Korean trading desks. Data from major exchanges like Bithumb indicates renewed buying interest, with trading activity gaining momentum. Since this signal emerged, the altcoin's price has increased by 38%. On an institutional level, Ripple-backed company Evernorth has accumulated nearly 0.5% of all XRP supply, amassing over 473 million tokens. Analysts note that XRP is positioned in a favorable spot with cleared liquidity below and stacked liquidity above, potentially leading to swift upward price movements as short positions are forced to close, triggering further buying pressure and momentum.

$1T XRP trades on Upbit – Are Korean traders ignoring Bitcoin, Ethereum?

XRP has recorded nearly $1 billion in 24-hour trading volume on South Korean exchanges Upbit and Bithumb, significantly surpassing both Bitcoin and Ethereum in local markets. This dominance is driven by strong retail participation, with altcoins comprising 80% of trading volume on major platforms. Upbit alone accounts for approximately 70% of domestic market share, and XRP/KRW pairs often represent 30–35% of daily turnover. South Korea has become a major retail liquidity hub, with KRW trading volume reaching $1.1 trillion in 2024, rivaling USD as a leading fiat gateway for crypto. Retail-driven speculative activity, characterized by small average order sizes under $1,000, fuels XRP’s outperformance. Despite its spot market strength, XRP’s derivatives engagement remains limited due to local leverage restrictions, with open interest and funding rates staying neutral compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Premium pricing of 2–10% above global levels further highlights intense local demand. Ultimately, XRP serves as a key indicator of retail sentiment in Korea’s crypto market.
