Upbit adds Metaplex (MPLX) and Nexus (NEX) tokens to its trading platform in South Korea.

Upbit, South Korea's largest crypto exchange, has listed Metaplex (MPLX) and Nexus (NEX) tokens on its platform, expanding its altcoin offerings. Metaplex supports token and NFT creation on Solana and features a buyback mechanism that reduces token supply, while Nexus is a Layer 1 blockchain focused on verifiable finance with a large token supply. This move brings these tokens from smaller venues to one of Asia's highest-volume exchanges, potentially increasing their trading activity and visibility among Korean retail investors.
