The kimchi premium and Korean exchange news of the last 24 hours, as of 9:00 AM KST on November 12, 2026.
1Today's Kimchi Premium
The Bitcoin kimchi premium is +1.44%, up 0.34 pp from 24 hours ago (+1.10%). Over the last 24 hours it ranged from a low of +0.93% to a high of +1.62%, with an average of +1.27%.
The CoinGaja Kimchi Premium Index, which reads the whole Korean market from the top 30 coins by trading value on Upbit, is +1.66% (+0.47 pp vs the previous day).
Among coins with at least ₩1 billion traded in 24 hours, the highest premiums are IQ +4.45%, ERA +3.92%, DKA +3.00%. 4 coins with closed deposits or an exchange warning are left out of this ranking even though their premiums are high; see Unusual Coin Signals below.
Highest premiums among coins with at least ₩1 billion traded
| Rank | Coin | Premium | 24h change | Worth noting |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | IQ IQ.wiki | +4.45% | −1.58% | - |
| 2 | ERA Caldera | +3.92% | +10.09% | - |
| 3 | DKA dKargo | +3.00% | +0.24% | - |
| 4 | SC Siacoin | +2.04% | −1.13% | - |
| 5 | BFC Bifrost | +1.95% | +0.70% | - |
2Tether Premium
USDT trades at ₩1,355 in Korea, 1.45% above the KRW/USD rate (₩1,336.2). That is up 0.31 pp from 24 hours ago (+1.14%).
USDT is trading a little above the exchange rate: buyers in Korea slightly outnumber sellers. When the Tether premium rises, every coin's kimchi premium looks higher too, so it is worth checking both together.
3Deposit and Withdrawal Suspensions
47 coins have deposits or withdrawals suspended right now (Upbit 7 · Bithumb 25 · Coinone 32 · Digital X 11; a coin closed on several exchanges counts once).

When deposits are closed, coins are hard to bring in from abroad, so the kimchi premium can widen a lot. Before you send coins, check both the sending and the receiving exchange on the exchange wallet status page.
