How is the PUNDIX kimchi premium calculated?
The PUNDIX KRW price on Upbit or Bithumb is divided by the Korean USDT price in won (₩1,348.3 on Upbit now) and compared with the PUNDIX price on Binance ($0.1056, spot): premium = KRW price ÷ USDT/KRW ÷ Binance price − 1. A venue counts only when it traded at least ₩500.0M of PUNDIX in the last 24 hours.
Can you arbitrage the PUNDIX 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 PUNDIX deposits or withdrawals, and the premium can close before a transfer lands. Nothing here is financial advice.
