XRP Overtakes Bitcoin on South Korea's Top Exchanges

Instruments
BTC XRP
Share

XRP briefly edged out Bitcoin in trading volume on South Korea's largest crypto exchanges, Upbit and Bithumb.

A YouTube host claims XRP became South Korea's most-traded asset by value, overtaking Bitcoin on both platforms. The market can generate concentrated demand that occasionally pushes local prices above global levels.

XRP trading volume rose 273% in a day, reaching around $1.84 billion. This figure represents the dollar value of trades, not proof that Korean investors hold more XRP than Bitcoin.
