Guide

How the calculator works

What you keep = premium − overseas trading fee − withdrawal fee − Korean trading fee − slippage

How it works out the won you keep when you buy a coin with your amount on one exchange, send it minus the withdrawal fee and sell it on the other. Overseas amounts are converted at the exchange rate the site uses.

The calculation at a glance

  1. Buy the coin
    overseas
    (overseas → Korea)
  2. Withdrawal fee offsend it to Korea
  3. Sell in Korea(coin → won)
  4. Fees and slippage offwhat you actually keep

Good to know

Choose an exchange yourself and only the routes with it are calculated; leave it open and every route (4 Korean × 13 overseas exchanges) is compared at once.

  1. Choose the exchanges

    The coin is bought along each exchange’s order book for the amount you enter. The average price the order fills at, pushed past the best price, is the real purchase price.

    Check points

    • Overseas prices (at the site’s exchange rate)
    • The price the order really fills at
    • The extra cost of slippage included
  2. Withdraw the coin (fee)

    Sending the bought coin to the Korean exchange costs a withdrawal fee. The fee is fixed per coin whatever the amount, and the order books come from the exchanges’ public APIs at the moment you calculate (refreshed about every 15 seconds).

    Check points

    • Each exchange’s withdrawal fee
    • A fixed fee per coin, whatever the amount
    • Suspended withdrawals checked per coin
  3. Sell in Korea (fee)

    The coin that arrives is sold for won on the Korean exchange, and its trading fee applies. Trading fees come from a table of the exchanges’ official rates; coupon discounts are left out and the standard rate is used.

    Check points

    • Each exchange’s trading fee rate
    • Standard rates, no coupon discounts
    • The sale counted at the price it fills at
  4. Slippage

    On both the overseas and the Korean exchange, an instant order fills at the prices it really reaches in the order book, not at the best price shown, so it changes the real result. The bigger the amount, the bigger the slippage.

    Check points

    • Calculated on the live order book
    • Bigger amounts, bigger slippage
    • Real fill prices, not the best price
  5. Add up the fees and compare the routes

    Withdrawal fees are fetched every 6 hours from Bithumb, Coinone, Digital X (Korea) and Bitget, Bitfinex, BTC Markets (overseas); the others come from the fee table. An unknown withdrawal fee counts as 0, and the routes are shown from the best one down.

    Check points

    • Data fetched from the exchanges
    • An unknown withdrawal fee counts as 0
    • Every route ranked by what you keep

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Questions people often ask while using CoinGaja.

  1. What does the kimchi premium calculator work out?

    When you buy a coin on an overseas exchange and send it to a Korean exchange to sell (overseas → Korea), or move it the other way (Korea → overseas), it takes the trading fees, the withdrawal fee and the order-book slippage out of the kimchi premium and shows the Korean won you actually keep. Every route between 4 Korean and 13 overseas exchanges is compared on the order books of that moment.

  2. The premium is positive, so why does it show a loss?

    When the trading fees, the withdrawal fee and the slippage together cost more than the premium, the trip loses money. The withdrawal fee is the same whatever amount you send, so the smaller the amount, the bigger its share.

  3. What changes when I send 1,000,000 won or more?

    Moving 1,000,000 won or more between a Korean exchange and an overseas exchange that is not on its Travel Rule partner list falls under the Travel Rule: you have to finish an identity check before the transfer goes through. These routes are still ranked, and their calculation steps say so.

  4. Where do the fees come from?

    Trading fees come from a table of the exchanges’ official rates; its date is shown under the results. Withdrawal fees are fetched from Bithumb, Coinone, Digital X, Bitget, Bitfinex and BTC Markets every 6 hours and taken from the table for the others. When an exchange’s withdrawal fee is unknown, it counts as 0 and the calculation steps say so.

  5. Will I really keep the amount shown?

    The result uses the order books at the moment you press the button. Prices and the premium can move while the coin is on its way, and fee discounts or events count only as far as the table records them. For information only, not investment advice.
