The South Korean stablecoin market is experiencing a significant boom, mirroring the renewed interest in cryptocurrencies. A recent report highlights a 50% surge in domestic stablecoin transaction volume, fueled by the overall positive sentiment in the virtual asset space. 50% Increase in Stablecoin Trading Data from CryptoQuant indicates that the top 5 South Korean crypto exchanges – Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax – collectively saw a stablecoin trading volume of ₩2.226 trillion KRW between July 13th and 19th. This impressive figure encompasses buy and sell transactions of leading stablecoins like Tether (USDT) and Circle (USDC). Factors Driving the Stablecoin Growth This substantial increase represents a 50.18% jump from the ₩1.4822 trillion KRW recorded just two weeks prior (June 29th - July 4th). The resurgence in crypto prices, coupled with the perceived stability offered by stablecoins during market volatility, are likely key drivers behind this increased activity. Investors often turn to stablecoins to preserve profits or to strategically re-enter the market. The trend shows a strong and potentially sustained interest in digital assets within South Korea. ```
