$SHIB surges 36%, with Korea premium driving this round of the market
In the short term, SHIB spikes 36%. Its market cap increases by roughly $1 billion in a single day, with a large portion of the buy orders concentrated on Korean exchanges—an example of a liquidity-driven move caused by a typical Korea premium.
This rally is mainly driven by FOMO sentiment among retail traders in South Korea, with a lack of fundamental support and on-chain cash flows. When retail traders in a specific region pile in at higher prices, it often happens during a phase when market sentiment is overheated. Once profit-taking kicks in, it can easily trigger a chain of liquidations for leveraged long positions.
At the sector level, in the short run, this market move is likely to cause other Meme coins to follow in a rotational “catch-up” pattern, drawing capital into the broader MEME track. However, once the Korea premium gradually fades and arbitrage funds exit, prices may face strong pressure to quickly revert to the mean.
It’s difficult to predict the top of a sentiment-driven market fueled by capital from a single region. The sustainability depends on whether Korean market buy orders can continue. Once buying weakens, the pullback could be extremely severe.
