Summary

Upbit is set to list O, the native token of Base-based onchain trading platform o1.exchange, with KRW, BTC and USDT trading pairs from 15:00 KST on July 23. The listing gives O access to South Korea’s largest exchange by market influence, where KRW pairs often bring a burst of local retail activity and wider liquidity. o1.exchange operates on Base, the Coinbase-incubated Ethereum layer-2 network, and offers spot execution, multi-venue routing and a professional trading terminal aimed at more advanced onchain trading. O is used for fee discounts, governance and other platform utility, though the project has not fully detailed all functions. The listing could boost visibility and trading volumes, but whether demand lasts beyond the initial debut remains uncertain as exchange-driven rallies often fade after early momentum.
