Upbit announced that it will commence trading for SPX6900 ($SPX) on June 16, 2026, opening the token to KRW, BTC, and USDT markets at 14:00 KST. The move grants Korean investors direct access to the meme‑coin through the nation’s leading crypto exchange. This listing also aligns $SPX with major crypto pairs, expanding its visibility in the local market.
Upbit Launch Details
The exchange set the start time for $SPX trading at 14:00 KST, covering three pairs: SPX/KRW, SPX/BTC, and SPX/USDT. By offering both fiat and crypto pairings, Upbit enables investors to trade the token using traditional Korean won or established cryptocurrencies. The platform’s robust liquidity is expected to attract both retail and institutional participants.
Bithumb Extends SPX6900 Access and Adds Spacecoin
Bithumb confirmed support for SPX6900 in the KRW market, scheduling the SPX/KRW pair to open at 17:00 KST, three hours after Upbit’s launch. The exchange also introduced Spacecoin ($SPACE) to the KRW market, initiating trading at 14:00 KST with deposits and withdrawals slated within two hours of the announcement. Bithumb restricts $SPACE deposits to the Ethereum network, emphasizing security for blockchain transactions.
Market Impact and Investor Outlook
Both listings place SPX6900 in front of Korean retail traders on the same day, potentially boosting trading volume and price discovery for the meme token. Spacecoin’s debut on a major exchange signals growing interest in DePIN projects that aim to deliver satellite‑based internet services. Investors now have expanded avenues to engage with these tokens, while the broader crypto market watches how Korean demand influences price dynamics.
