The news immediately went viral across crypto-focused social media channels, particularly among Korean traders known for rapidly responding to new altcoin listings.
Within hours of trading going live, Ravencoin saw parabolic price movement driven by a flood of liquidity and a wave of FOMO. At the time of writing, RVN is trading around $0.01669, still up over 60% on the day after a healthy correction from its 24-hour peak.
If buying volume sustains and Korean traders continue to pile in, RVN could retest the local top of $0.024 and potentially break out towards $0.028–$0.030. However, a drop back to the $0.012–$0.014 range could materialize if momentum fades.
It is important to note that Livepeer LPT $7.31 24h volatility: 5.4% Market cap: $301.64 M Vol. 24h: $135.18 M saw a four-month price high after its recent Upbit listing. Ravencoin appears to be the next beneficiary of Korean trader optimism and speculative momentum.
South korea’s new crypto-friendly president
Upbit has been able to list many altcoins recently, thanks to pro-crypto laws. With Lee Jae-myung as South Korea’s new president, the situation is only about to get better.
Lee is widely regarded as crypto-friendly and has laid out ambitious plans for the nation’s digital asset ecosystem.
These include proposals for spot ETF legalization, opening the gates for institutional investment (even from the National Pension Fund), and support for a won-backed stablecoin market.
His win, secured with nearly 49.4% of the vote in a high-turnout election, signals a new era for South Korea’s crypto sector as global demand for digital assets soar amid US President Donald Trump’s push for cryptocurrencies.
