the latest financial stability report released by the Bank of Korea shows that the activity level of the Korean crypto market remains higher than the global average, at 157% and 112% respectively. However, as Bitcoin surpasses $100,000 in 2025, the behavior of Korean retail investors has shifted from actively building positions to focusing on profit-taking and significant cashing out.The report points out that 91.2% of the trading volume in the Korean crypto market is contributed by the top 10% of accounts, leading to increased risks of market manipulation. The Bank of Korea warned that if institutional and ETF access is relaxed, the vulnerability of the Korean market to global volatility will intensify. Currently, related hot money has shifted to the Korean local stock market and US leveraged ETFs.

Changpeng Zhao: Binance Wallet now supports identifying malicious addresses; you will receive a warning if you transfer funds to them.
Zhao Changpeng posted on Binance Plaza stating, "The cryptocurrency industry should be able to completely eradicate address poisoning attacks and protect users. All wallets should simply check whether the receiving address is a poisoned address and block the user.This is a blockchain query. Wallets should not even display these junk transactions anywhere. If the value of the transaction is very small, filter it out. Security alliances in the industry should maintain a real-time blacklist of these addresses so that wallets can check before sending transactions. Binance Wallet is already doing this. If a user tries to send to a malicious address, they will receive a warning. -
