Solana-based meme coin BONK has been on a mega rally over the past week gaining another 12% today soon after listing on Korean crypto exchange Upbit.

BONK Price Breakout After Upbit Listing
Earlier today, South Korea’s largest crypto exchange Upbit announced the launch of BONK’s Korean Won trading market. The listing will significantly boost trading volume for the meme coin driving BONK price even higher.
The South Korean exchange also announced that deposits and withdrawals are only supported through the guided network (BONK-Solana). Also, with Korean crypto investors having a greater appetite for meme coins and altcoins, this development could bode well for the entire BONK community.
Interestingly, this development came at a time when the South Korean crypto exchange is facing a probe over KYC violations. The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) has identified more than 500,000 instances of inadequate customer verification by Upbit.
The recent BONK price surge shows a strong breakout from its previous highs. Analysts predicts another 100% rally to take the BONK market cap to more than $10 billion.
