South Korea’s Cryptocurrency Market Sees Significant Shift with XRP Trading Volume Increase

South Korea Just Flipped the Switch on XRP. Here’s What Happened

By Solomon Odunayo August 9, 2025

In a shocking turn of events, Upbit, South Korea’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, has registered an unprecedented $1.09 billion in XRP trading volume within a 24-hour period. This remarkable surge in trading activity has left the crypto community reeling and wondering what this sudden shift means for the future of the market.

According to recent reports, Binance, which previously held the top spot in XRP trading volume, was outpaced by Upbit, signaling a significant shift in market dominance. Coinbase followed closely behind with $450.30 million in trades, Bybit recorded $399.74 million, Kraken saw $222.11 million, OKX logged $221.07 million, and Crypto.com processed $110.52 million.

The surge in XRP trading volume has been linked to the recent closure of a long-running SEC case involving Ripple, leaving some analysts to speculate that this could be the catalyst for a broader market trend. The rapid influx of activity on Upbit’s platform suggests that investors are capitalizing on the legal clarity and renewed interest in the asset.

The XRP community is abuzz with speculation about the implications of this development, with many experts predicting an upward trajectory for the digital asset. As always, it remains to be seen whether these predictions will materialize, but one thing is certain – the sudden turn-around has sent shockwaves through the industry and will require close monitoring in the days ahead.
