</ul> 
After hitting a peak in early March, the 24-hour trading volume at Upbit—one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/do-kwons-extradition-to-south-korea-delayed-by-montenegrin-supreme-court/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">South Korea</a>—fell to $3.8 billion at the beginning of April. The Upbit exchange reached this year’s all-time high trading volume of around $15 billion on March 5. 
The fact that Bitcoin hit a new all-time high of $69,200 on the same day could explain the dramatic increase in daily trading volume on the crypto exchange. Huge investments in the newly formed spot Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs in the U.S were the main factor propelling the rush.

At around 3:00 pm UTC on March 5, <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/peter-schiff-continues-to-criticize-bitcoin-despite-recent-performance/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin</a> hit a new record high of 96,734,000 South Korean won (about $72,504) on Upbit. While in the rest of the globe, it was trading below $70,000. The exchange’s daily trade volume on March 5 may have been boosted in part by this. 
The “Kimchi Premium” describes the disparity in pricing between South Korea and the rest of the globe. A Korean term describing the spread between the price of bitcoin on Korean exchanges and those on global markets, the <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/k/kimchi-premium.asp" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Kimchi Premium</a> is named after the national fermented side dish. The increase was short-lived, however; by March 31, the exchange’s daily trading volume had fallen to $2.6 billion. 
Upbit had a 24-hour trading volume of $3.8 billion as of 1 April, according to coin statistics tracker <a href="http://coingecko.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">CoinGecko</a>. The net profit for Upbit’s parent firm fell 81% in 2023. The $23 million profit declared by Upbit owner Dunamu on November 28th is much lower than the $123 million profit achieved during the same time in 2022.
