Bithumb to List PRL on Its South Korean Won Market

According to Bithumb, the South Korean crypto exchange will add PRL trading against KRW, the local fiat currency market on the platform.

Fact Check
The claim is strongly supported by [Bithumb Notice] Pearl (PRL) KRW Market Added | Xangle, which directly states that Pearl (PRL) was added to Bithumb's KRW market on Apr 27, 2026. The PANews article Bithumb将在韩元市场上线PRL代币 independently matches that statement and explicitly says it is based on an official announcement. No gathered source contradicted the listing claim.
