Trading volumes of these altcoins surge in South Korea – XRP loses top spot

The South Korean cryptocurrency market has seen an abnormal increase in trading volume over the past 24 hours.

The extreme volatility seen on the country’s two largest exchanges has significantly changed market dynamics, especially intensifying low- and mid-cap altcoins.

The most notable rally was seen in Lisk (LSK), which has regained the highest interest from South Korean traders in recent years, but pairs such as XRP, USDT, and Sahara AI (SAHARA) also stood out in terms of volume.

This surge in volume, which comes amid a broader decline and recovery in the crypto market, signals an increased focus on altcoin pairs in particular by local investors.

The altcoins with the highest trading volume on South Korean virtual currency exchanges in the past 24 hours and their trading volumes are as follows.

1. LSK – $131.49 million
2. XRP – $130.96 million
3. USDT – $127.09 million
4. BTC – $95.73 million
5. ETH – $59.82 million
6. Sahara – $60.36 million
7. WAL – $54.49 million
8. COMP – $39.79 million
9. Deep – $36.31 million
10. My – $27.85 million
11. IRYS – $14.98 million
12. Pevers – $14.94 million
13. Left – $12.56 million
14. ENA – $7.54 million
