| Item | Value | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| BTC price | $80,334 (Bitrue 80,334 · Binance 80,304 · Bybit 80,316 · HTX 80,309 · Upbit ₩107,501,000) | Under 0.04% between exchanges — no arbitrage gap |
| BTC 24h | -0.27% ($80,551 → $80,334) | Within 1% for the day — catching its breath |
| BTC 24h range | $80,276 ~ $80,923 (hourly closes) | Range 0.8% — narrow = a quiet day |
| ETH price | $2,337 (24h -0.28%) | moving in step with bitcoin |
| Market breadth | 85 up · 107 down (of 192) | Gainers and losers are balanced = mixed |
| Above the long-term trendline (EMA200) | 67 coins (45%) | about half = the long-term trend is neutral |
| Kimchi premium (USDT basis) | +1.07% (24h range +1% to +1.61%) | Korea is slightly more expensive = normal domestic demand |
| Kimchi premium (BTC basis) | +1.01% (Upbit ₩107,501,000 ÷ FX 1,324.82 = $81,144 vs $80,334) | the same bitcoin, priced at home vs overseas |
| USDT/KRW | 1,339 KRW (reference rate 1,324.82 KRW) | Tether trades 1.1% more expensive than the reference rate |
| Futures funding rate (BTC) | 0.0067% per 8h (Binance 0.0021% · OKX 0.0079% · Gate.io 0.0067%) | At the baseline = longs are not crowded |
| Measured $100 fill (Binance BTC/USDT) | $80,310 · 0% slippage ($100,000 also 0%) | fills at the quoted price — plenty of liquidity |
A funding rate at the 0.01% baseline means longs are not crowding the futures market. And a premium near zero means both sides run at a similar temperature. Gainers and losers were balanced, so it came down to the individual coin.
Biggest gainers and losers (24h)
We count only coins with at least $10M turnover listed on three or more exchanges (this keeps single-venue pumps and scam tokens out). Prices come from the largest venue by turnover; turnover from the largest spot venue.

Kimchi premium right now
The kimchi premium (the price gap between Korean and overseas exchanges) is +1.07% — 24h average +1.24%, range +1% to +1.61%. Korea is slightly more expensive = normal domestic demand.
Coins with the widest gaps in our latest scan (one row per coin):
- SOPH premium — LBank $0.001427 · Upbit $0.00185213 — 29.79% apart
- IOST premium — Gate.io $0.00076 · Upbit $0.00081404 — 7.11% apart
- VVV premium — Bitrue $24.07 · Upbit $25.16 — 4.53% apart
Read these gaps after fees, transfer time and FX. They are not an arbitrage call — they are a thermometer for which side of the market runs hotter.
Funding-rate skew (which way futures lean)
The funding rate is a fee that passes periodically between longs and shorts in perpetual futures. Positive means longs pay shorts; the further it drifts from the 0.01% baseline, the more crowded one side is.
- BTC 0.0067% per 8h (about 0.02% a day) — At the baseline = longs are not crowded
- ETH 0.0065% per 8h (about 0.02% a day) — At the baseline = longs are not crowded
- T a lot of money is betting it falls — holding leverage costs about 27.53% a day (Bybit)
- STEEM a lot of money is betting it falls — holding leverage costs about 6.81% a day (Bybit)
A holding cost this wide is not an income opportunity — it is a signal that one side is badly crowded. On such coins, price swings dwarf the fee.
Yesterday's main stories
1. Crypto Market Drops Amid Global Tech Sell-Off and FOMC Concerns
Between 23 October and 25 October 2026, general sell-off pressure hit risk assets due to weakness in global tech stocks, lingering concerns over delayed interest rate cuts, and prevailing geopolitical risks in the Middle East, as reported by BusinessToday on 25 October 2026.
Bitcoin (BTC) attempted to move above the $84,800 range during the week but turned weak and fell back to the $80,300–$81,000 range, while Ethereum (ETH) dropped below $2,400 to trade slightly lower around $2,330.
2. JPMorgan Expands Tokenized Money Market Funds to Solana
JPMorgan announced that it is expanding two tokenized money market funds (blockchain-based digital tokens representing shares of traditional funds) on-chain onto the Solana (SOL) blockchain network, according to reports by Markets Insider and GlobeNewswire on 25 October 2026.
Although this served as institutional adoption momentum for the Solana ecosystem, it did not lead to a broader market reversal due to the overall macroeconomic sell-off.
3. Ethereum Faces Supply Increase and ETF Outflows
According to reports by Pluang and 24/7 Wall St. on 25 October 2026, Ethereum network on-chain issuance over a 24-hour snapshot reached 2,984 ETH, significantly exceeding the 16.3 ETH burned under EIP-1559 and resulting in a net supply increase of about 2,967 ETH. Additionally, US Ethereum spot ETFs recorded weekly net outflows of $220 million.
These factors exerted direct downward pressure on Ethereum, causing ETH to weaken below $2,300 and reach a one-month low.
