CELO kimchi premium FAQ

What is the CELO kimchi premium today?

CELO trades at a 1.61% premium on Korean exchanges against Binance right now (Upbit +1.61%, Bithumb +1.61%). The figure refreshes about once a minute from the Upbit and Bithumb public tickers.

How is the CELO kimchi premium calculated?

The CELO KRW price on Upbit or Bithumb is divided by the Korean USDT price in won (₩1,355 on Upbit now) and compared with the CELO price on Binance ($0.1148, spot): premium = KRW price ÷ USDT/KRW ÷ Binance price − 1. A venue counts only when it traded at least ₩500.0M of CELO in the last 24 hours.

Can you arbitrage the CELO 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 CELO deposits or withdrawals, and the premium can close before a transfer lands. Nothing here is financial advice.
