XRP has overtaken Bitcoin and Ethereum in trading volume on South Korean exchanges Upbit and Bithumb, with $110.9 million and $41 million respectively over the past 24 hours. This surge comes amid a sharp pullback in South Korea's Kospi index following government tax policy concerns, highlighting XRP's role as a favored high-volatility crypto asset among Korean traders. Despite muted price movement, XRP remains supported technically and could see further gains if it breaks resistance levels around $1.47. This trend underscores the unique dynamics of Korean crypto markets amid broader economic uncertainty.
