Korea drives a third of the world’s crypto trading—KWM is turning that unstoppable force into a new class of public company.

With over 30% of global crypto volume, Korea is a superpower—KWM is weaponizing that dominance to redefine equity markets.

Key Highlights:

  • Top 3 globally for Bitcoin and altcoin trading volume

  • Home to major exchanges like Upbit, Bithumb, and Coinone

  • Korean investors drive more daily crypto volume than most countries combined

  • Known for the “Kimchi Premium”—a market phenomenon where BTC often trades 5–15% higher locally due to intense demand

  • Crypto is widely used not just for speculation, but increasingly as a store of value amid inflation concerns and global macro volatility
