South Korea's Upbit adds B3 token to KRW market, boosting local access to Base-linked crypto.

South Korean crypto exchange Upbit has listed the B3 token for trading against the Korean won, providing local traders direct access to this Base-linked layer-3 blockchain asset. Trading started with controlled buy and sell order restrictions to ensure market stability, and deposits and withdrawals are supported only through the Base network. This move aligns with growing Korean interest in OP Stack projects and enhances B3's visibility in one of Asia's most active retail crypto markets. The listing also complements Upbit's broader strategy involving OP Stack-based infrastructure, including its partnership with Optimism to build the GIWA Chain layer-2 network.
