USD equivalent = KRW price ÷ ₩1,356, Upbit's own KRW-USDT price, so the premium is vs USDT, not vs the bank dollar rate. Binance price: the spot STX/USDT market. STX is #46 of 211 coins by combined Upbit + Bithumb 24h volume (₩5.6B).

STX kimchi premium FAQ

What is the STX kimchi premium today?

STX trades at a 0.04% premium on Korean exchanges against Binance right now (Upbit +0.15%, Bithumb -0.08%). The figure refreshes about once a minute from the Upbit and Bithumb public tickers.

How is the STX kimchi premium calculated?

The STX KRW price on Upbit or Bithumb is divided by the Korean USDT price in won (₩1,356 on Upbit now) and compared with the STX price on Binance ($0.3181, spot): premium = KRW price ÷ USDT/KRW ÷ Binance price − 1. A venue counts only when it traded at least ₩500.0M of STX in the last 24 hours.

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