Summary

South Korea’s largest crypto exchange, Upbit, has officially listed four new altcoins—Ether.fi (ETHFI), Resolv (RESOLV), Initia (INIT), and Spark (SPK)—for trading against Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether (USDT). Trading for these pairs began on September 19, with deposits and withdrawals open. Upbit has implemented temporary trading restrictions, including limiting buy orders for five minutes and restricting large sell orders. Despite initial gains, the tokens’ prices have shown signs of post-listing correction. This follows Upbit’s recent launch of GIWA Chain, an Ethereum Layer-2 network built on Optimism’s OP Stack.
