Bithumb exchange News -

South Korea's Bithumb exchange sparked a cryptocurrency rally with its February 24 listing of Espresso Token (ESP), propelling the asset up 84% to $0.17 within hours. The debut of the KRW trading pair at 5:00 PM KST capitalized on the nation's retail trading frenzy, with deposit channels opening two hours before launch to meet surging demand.

Market analysts view the listing as both a liquidity catalyst and a validation of Espresso Systems' blockchain infrastructure. The sharp price increase reflects speculative bets on continued volatility—a characteristic of South Korean crypto markets where high retail participation often amplifies price movements.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
