The exchange said users should verify the supported network before transferring BSB because deposits sent through unsupported networks may require a lengthy return process.</p><p>You might also like: <a href="https://crypto.news/upbit-lists-cap-in-krw-btc-and-usdt-markets/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> Upbit lists CAP in KRW, BTC and USDT markets </a></p><h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-upbit-will-impose-temporary-bsb-trading-limits-strong"><strong>Upbit will impose temporary BSB trading limits</strong></h2><p>Upbit plans several restrictions during BSB’s opening period. Buy orders will be blocked for about five minutes after trading begins. During the same period, sell orders priced more than 10% below the previous day’s closing price will also be restricted.</p><p>In addition, Upbit will allow only limit orders for roughly two hours after trading support starts. The exchange cited a previous closing price of 211.09 KRW and a recent reference price of 222.34 KRW at 11:45 a.m. KST on Aug. 7. Those figures were published before Upbit trading opened and therefore do not represent a post-listing market reaction.</p><p>The listing notice identified BSB’s supported Ethereum contract as<a href="https://etherscan.io/token/0xdb6ba5d510f114f9b2ea08bea7d30e32eee33411" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> 0xdb6ba5d510f114f9b2ea08bea7d30e32eee33411</a>. Users are expected to verify that contract before making deposits or withdrawals.</p><p>The structure resembles other recent Upbit additions. <a href="https://crypto.news/upbit-lists-derive-drv-with-krw-btc-and-usdt-trading-pairs/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Upbit added Derive’s DRV </a>token to KRW, BTC and USDT markets while also applying temporary trading controls around the launch.</p><h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-block-street-targets-tokenized-asset-liquidity-strong"><strong>Block Street targets tokenized asset liquidity</strong></h2><p><a href="https://blockstreet.money/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Block Street</a> describes itself as infrastructure for on-chain capital markets focused on tokenized equities and real-world assets. According to the project’s <a href="https://docs.blockstreet.money/docs/whitepaper" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">official documentation</a>, its architecture is intended to connect fragmented liquidity across issuers, blockchains and trading venues.</p><p>The protocol calls this infrastructure a “Unified Liquidity Layer.” Block Street says the system is designed to improve execution and capital efficiency for tokenized assets while supporting functions such as borrowing, margin, hedging and arbitrage.</p><p>BSB serves as the protocol’s utility and governance token. According to Block Street’s <a href="https://docs.blockstreet.money/blog/introducing-bsb" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BSB documentation</a>, holders can use the token for governance participation, staking and ecosystem incentives.</p><p>The project’s whitepaper fixes total BSB supply at 1 billion tokens. Block Street said 207.75 million BSB, equivalent to 20.775% of supply, were expected to circulate around the token generation event.</p><p>The project has also raised outside capital to build its infrastructure. <a href="https://docs.blockstreet.money/blog/raises-11-5m" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Block Street announced</a> an $11.5 million strategic funding round in October 2025, led by Hack VC with participation from Generative Venture, DWF Labs, StudioB and Bridge34.</p><p>Meanwhile, tokenized equities have become a broader market theme. In <a href="https://crypto.news/tokenized-equities-surge-105-as-wall-street-joins-the-race/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">related coverage</a>, tokenized equity activity increased as crypto companies and traditional market participants expanded blockchain-based stock infrastructure.</p><h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-what-happens-when-bsb-trading-opens-strong"><strong>What happens when BSB trading opens</strong></h2><p>The immediate event to watch is Upbit’s planned 3:00 p.m. KST trading start on Aug. 7. Because the exchange made the launch conditional on sufficient liquidity, the announced time remains subject to change.</p><p>Once trading begins, Upbit’s initial restrictions will expire in stages. The five-minute controls on buy orders and low-priced sell orders will end first, while the exchange plans to maintain its limit-order-only restriction for roughly two hours.</p><p>At the time covered by the announcement, there was no verified Upbit market reaction because trading had not yet begun. As a result, price movements on other exchanges before the scheduled launch should not be described as an Upbit listing reaction without time-matched market data.</p><p>For deposits, users must continue using the Ethereum network and verify the contract address specified in the <a href="https://www.upbit.com/service_center/notice?id=1766002002&amp;view=share" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Upbit announcement</a>. Although Block Street’s whitepaper describes BSB deployments across Ethereum and BNB Chain, Upbit’s listing notice supports Ethereum only.</p><p>That distinction will remain important once deposits, withdrawals and trading are active because transfers made through unsupported networks may not be automatically credited.</p><p>Read more: <a href="https://crypto.news/canaan-taps-130m-crypto-reserve-for-stock-buybacks/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> Canaan taps $130M crypto reserve for stock buybacks </a></p>
