Upbit Adds Squid to its Trading Platform

The South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Upbit has added Squid (QUID) for trading against the Korean won (KRW), Bitcoin (BTC), and Tether (USDT).

This move provides QUID with significant liquidity and accessibility, particularly for Korean retail investors. The inclusion of KRW trading pairs allows direct fiat-to-crypto trading, a key factor in mainstream adoption.

The listing on Upbit comes at a time when South Korea's cryptocurrency market is experiencing renewed interest, with improved regulatory clarity and exchanges actively reviewing projects to ensure compliance.
