South Korea Misses Bitcoin ETF, Largest Crypto Market Without Regulated Fund

By: bitcoinmagazine.nl|2026/08/28 10:00:00

South Korea still does not have a Bitcoin ETF, despite strong demand from local investors. The Korea Premium Index from CryptoQuant shows that Korean buyers often pay more than the global price, indicating a high demand for regulated products. Restrictions for retail and institutional investors make it difficult to trade Bitcoin. A regulated fund would improve access and narrow the price gap. The current situation in South Korea is a significant factor in the global crypto market. The chance of a new bottom below 15% is small, while Bitcoin stabilizes between $70,000 and $90,000. The current BTC price is $79,958, offering investors the opportunity to enter with a potential of 12% up and down.
