Recent statistics reveal the astonishing rise of the South Korean crypto assets market. From 2025 to now, the settlement amount of Korean Won in crypto asset transactions has reached $663 billion, second only to the US dollar, surpassing all other fiat currencies. This data highlights South Korea's significant position in the global crypto assets market.



The enthusiasm of the South Korean public for Crypto Assets is unprecedentedly high. According to reports, about one-third of South Korean adults hold Crypto Assets, a proportion that is twice that of the United States. Such a high level of participation makes South Korea an important player in the global cryptocurrency space.

It is noteworthy that the Korean Crypto Assets market has long experienced the so-called "Kimchi Premium" phenomenon. Currently, the trading price of Bitcoin in South Korea is nearly 2.5% higher than the global average, reflecting the strong demand from Korean investors for Crypto Assets.

Despite certain restrictions on institutional investors participating in the Crypto Assets market in South Korea, which has led to a degree of separation from the mainstream global market, South Korea still firmly holds the position of the second largest Crypto Assets market in the world. This achievement fully demonstrates South Korea's influence and competitiveness in the field of Crypto Assets.

The booming development of the cryptocurrency market in South Korea has attracted widespread attention both inside and outside the industry. Analysts point out that the South Korean case may provide valuable references for other countries, while also reminding market participants to pay attention to potential risks and regulatory changes. As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve, South Korea's performance will undoubtedly remain a focal point of global interest.
