Bithumb, one of South Korea's leading cryptocurrency exchanges and the second largest after Upbit, has unveiled a significant update for altcoin enthusiasts.
The platform has officially announced the listing of TRUMP, a cryptocurrency associated with U.S. President Donald Trump.
The new addition, named “Official Trump (TRUMP),” will be available for trading in the Korean Won (KRW) market.
According to Bithumb, the coin operates on the Solana (SOL) network, and deposits made through other networks will not be supported.
Trading is set to begin on Tuesday, January 21, 2025, at 7:00 PM local time.
Bithumb’s listing follows similar moves from Binance and Coinbase, which recently added the trending memecoin to their spot trading platforms.
