CARV kimchi premium FAQ

What is the CARV kimchi premium today?

CARV trades at a 0.62% discount on Korean exchanges against Binance right now (Upbit -0.62%). The figure refreshes about once a minute from the Upbit and Bithumb public tickers.

How is the CARV kimchi premium calculated?

The CARV KRW price on Upbit or Bithumb is divided by the Korean USDT price in won (₩1,352 on Upbit now) and compared with the CARV price on Binance ($0.04257, USDT perpetual): premium = KRW price ÷ USDT/KRW ÷ Binance price − 1. A venue counts only when it traded at least ₩500.0M of CARV in the last 24 hours.

Can you arbitrage the CARV kimchi premium?

Not easily. Korean exchanges take won only from verified local bank accounts and South Korea limits moving won abroad, which is why the gap can last. Transfers take time, an exchange can suspend CARV deposits or withdrawals, and the premium can close before a transfer lands. Nothing here is financial advice.
