South Korea's largest exchange adds the decentralized GPU network's token — deposits and withdrawals route through Solana — landing IO alongside the few alt listings Upbit has cleared this quarter.
Upbit is the dominant venue for Korean-won crypto liquidity; a new listing on its KRW board opens the token to a retail-heavy flow pool that USDT or BTC pairs alone don't reach.
