Kaiko: South Korea Accounts for 30% of Global Cryptocurrency Trading Volume, Altcoins Represent 85%

2 hours ago

April 15th — Crypto data firm KaikoData reports that South Korea accounts for 30% of global crypto trading volume, with altcoins making up 85% of that share. Bitcoin and Ethereum, meanwhile, represent just 9% and 6% of the country’s crypto trading activity, respectively. South Korean exchanges post an average weekly trading volume of $2.622 billion, which is dominated by altcoins and shows strong speculative tendencies. By contrast, Japan’s monthly crypto trading volume stays steady at $20–30 billion (far lower than South Korea’s monthly equivalent, based on its weekly average). However, Japan’s Bitcoin 1% market depth is 3–5 times that of South Korea, offering better liquidity.
