Upbit Lists Four Altcoins with Eight Trading Pairs, Delays Launch

South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Upbit has announced that it will be listing four new altcoins on August 21, each paired with Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether (USDT). The tokens are Biconomy (BICO), Bubblemaps (BMT), Nillion (NIL), and ETHGas (GWEI).

The original trading schedule was to open at 13:00 Korea Standard Time, but Upbit has pushed back the launch time by three hours to 16:00 KST due to concerns over liquidity. The exchange warned that if deposits and withdrawals do not establish sufficient liquidity before the revised opening time, trading may be delayed again.

Each of the four tokens will receive one BTC pair and one USDT pair, with BICO, NIL, and GWEI deposits using the Ethereum network and BMT transfers requiring Solana network support. Users are advised to verify contract addresses and blockchain before transferring funds.
