How is DOGE Korea premium calculated?

Accepted Answer

DOGE Korea premium (%) = ((Upbit DOGE/KRW price) / (Binance DOGE/USDT price × USD/KRW exchange rate) - 1) × 100. A positive value means DOGE is more expensive on Korean exchanges.

Question 3

Why does Dogecoin have a different price on Korean exchanges?

Accepted Answer

Dogecoin prices on Korean exchanges like Upbit often differ from global prices due to strong domestic demand, capital movement restrictions, limited arbitrage opportunities, and the isolated nature of the Korean won (KRW) crypto market.

Question 4

Can I arbitrage DOGE between Upbit and Binance?

Accepted Answer

While the DOGE price difference exists, profitable arbitrage is difficult due to Korean capital controls, transfer times and fees, exchange withdrawal limits, and regulatory restrictions. The premium is better used as a market sentiment indicator.
