Bithumb has announced the launch of KRW trading pairs for RED and NIL, triggering sharp price swings for the tokens.
South Korea’s leading crypto exchange, Bithumb, has officially launched Korean Won (KRW) trading pairs for RedStone (RED) and Nillion (NIL). The new listings, which are set to go live on March 25, triggered opposite price movements for the two tokens.
RED surged by 16% following the announcement, while NIL plummeted by 16%. Both tokens are now directly tradable against the South Korean Won, providing easier access for local traders.
According to Bithumb, RED trading will start at 4:00 PM KST at a base price of 892 KRW ($0.68). On the other hand, NIL is set to begin trading at 7:00 PM KST at 1,044 KRW ($0.75).
Bithumb has implemented safeguards for the token listings to prevent market manipulation and ensure fair trading conditions. During the first five minutes of trading, the exchange prohibited new buy orders in the primary market. It has also capped sell orders within ±10% and ±100% of the base price.
Notably, Bithumb has also clarified that deposits and withdrawals would only be supported through specific networks.
