Upbit Korea, the largest crypto exchange in South Korea by trading volume and users, announced its latest delistings. The delistings will take place in November, allowing traders time to act accordingly before the deadline.
Upbit will suspend trading support for Zilliqa (ZIL), including ZIL/KRW and ZIL/BTC pairs. Trading support will be terminated on Monday, November 16, 2026, at 15:00 KST. This follows a recent security incident with the Zilliqa Ledger app in July of this year.
On July 22, 2026, Upbit added Zilliqa (ZIL) to the trading caution list. Afterward, Upbit conducted another detailed review of virtual assets and determined that the reasons for designating Zilliqa as a trading caution item have not been resolved. Upbit therefore decided to end trading support in accordance with its policy on the designation of virtual assets as caution items and the end of trading support.
Sophon (SOPH) was also announced to be delisted, with trading support to be terminated on Monday, November 16, 2026, at 15:00 KST. The affected trading pairs are SOPH/KRW, SOPH/BTC, and SOPH/USDT.
In related news, Hive Dollar (HBD/BTC) and District0x (DNT/BTC) have been designated as trading caution items on Upbit, and accordingly, deposit services will be temporarily suspended. The tokens have been flagged with an investment warning, with deposit services temporarily halted and delisting possible pending further review.
The trading caution item designation period for MANTRA (MANTRA/KRW, MANTRA/BTC, MANTRA/USDT) has been extended until the second week of November 2026, from November 9 to November 13.
XRP/KRW is the most traded pair on Upbit
Meanwhile, XRP continues to dominate trading volumes on Upbit, surpassing major cryptocurrencies Bitcoin and Ethereum.
According to CoinMarketCap data, XRP's Korean won pair was the most traded market on Upbit over the past 24 hours, with about $87.12 million in volume, ahead of Bitcoin's $74.69 million and Ethereum's $56.33 million.
Korea has long been one of XRP's most active speculative markets, with the cryptocurrency's dominance in trading volumes coming as little of a surprise. However, XRP remains slightly muted, up just 2.76% in the last 24 hours to $1.33, following this week's choppy price action.
XRP is compressing between its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, with the market paying close attention, as is usually the case when it starts leading volume on Korean exchanges.
