When the KOSPI swung roughly 17% across two days, a textbook retail rotation was the obvious trade; Upbit's volume rose just 4%, suggesting Korean crypto desks were already elsewhere.
Headline inflation posted its biggest monthly drop since May 2020, re-igniting the disinflation trade and pulling ETH out of a multi-year bear against Bitcoin in the same session.
