The Impact of Upbit Listing Success Rate and UDC Conference Overview

Recently, with the market gaining strength, the wealth effect of new listings on Upbit has become more prominent. Tokens like AGLD saw a staggering 150% increase on the first day, while DRIFT surged by 190%. Tokens like SAFE, CARV, and PEPE also experienced a 100% increase. The Formula team made a fortune through news trading, showcasing the potential for wealth creation on Upbit. How can we seize the wealth wave of new listings on Upbit? The UDC conference serves as a barometer for Upbit listings. The listing success rate from 2018 to 2023 stands at 76%. On November 14th, the UDC conference was held as scheduled, offering a glimpse into the participating projects. UDC, organized by Dunamu since 2018, is a representative blockchain conference in South Korea aimed at promoting industry development, ecosystem growth, and adoption. This year’s theme, ‘Blockchain: Driving Real-World Change,’ delves into how blockchain is expanding into various industries and bringing about real-world transformations. According to Layerggofficial data, from 2018 to 2023, approximately 66 projects participated in UDC, with 37 projects already listed on KRW Fair before UDC. Among the remaining 29 projects, 13 were listed in KRW form after UDC (44.8%). The significance of the UDC conference and the wealth effect on Upbit stem from various factors.

UDC’s Importance and Upbit’s Wealth Effect

Upbit, as South Korea’s largest exchange, holds a leading position in the Korean market in terms of trading volume and user numbers, commanding around 73% of the market share. Korean investors can directly purchase cryptocurrencies using the Korean Won (KRW), leading to significant wealth effects. The convenience of deposits and substantial wealth effects have propelled cryptocurrency trading volume in Korea beyond the country’s stock market. This dynamic ensures strong buying interest for new tokens listed on Upbit. The UDC conference, organized by Dunamo, Upbit’s parent company, though slightly smaller in terms of timing and participation compared to events like KBW, holds undeniable importance. Projects like ZRO, MNT, and STG, which participated in last year’s conference, were listed on Upbit this year, indicating the enduring influence of the conference. Data source: Layerggofficial

UDC 2024 Conference Projects

The UDC conference for this year has already taken place, with projects like Axelar, Taiko, Zetachain, Mantle, and Cyber already listed on Upbit. As of the conference, there are still 11 projects yet to be listed on Upbit or to have KRW trading pairs. Projects awaiting listing include SLP, HNT, GALA, NFT, and ROSE. Projects already listed with BTC pairs but without KRW pairs include MKR, YGG, IOTX, and Cyber. Projects that have not launched tokens but participated in UDC include Linea and Magic Eden. Compliance and AI remain strong narratives in line with this year’s UDC theme. Despite Oasis Network not participating in this year’s UDC, leveraging AI narratives, ROSE saw a surge on November 5th. Additionally, South Korea’s high interest in NFTs and the gaming market suggests that Magic Eden’s token has a high probability of being listed on Upbit. Apart from the forward-looking impact of the UDC conference, another South Korean exchange, Bithumb, also has relevance to Upbit listings. Both exchanges tend to list coins in clusters based on narratives, such as introducing AI tokens simultaneously at the beginning of the year or focusing on Memecoins currently. To protect investors, Korean exchanges typically avoid small, new coins with short market history, opting for older coins with stable market capitalization and prices.

Navigating Privacy in Digital Marketing: The Role of Web3 Technologies
In the evolving landscape of digital marketing, the tension between delivering personalized experiences and respecting user privacy is becoming increasingly pronounced. Marketers are often likened to oil drillers, eager to extract value from data but sometimes neglecting the ethical implications of their actions. The recent missteps by companies, such as Kaiser Permanente's accidental sharing of private health information affecting millions, highlight the urgent need for a shift towards privacy-first strategies. As consumers grow more cautious about their personal information, the challenge for marketers is to balance innovative data protection methods with business objectives. Web3 technology presents a transformative opportunity for marketers to rebuild trust with consumers by prioritizing privacy and consent. Traditional marketing practices, often perceived as intrusive, are losing their effectiveness as users demand transparency and control over their data. Issues such as data breaches and lack of user consent are driving customers away, leading to a loss of trust that can be devastating for brands. The Ticketmaster data breach serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of failing to protect user data, emphasizing the need for a new approach that respects user rights and fosters loyalty. iExec's R3ach tool exemplifies how marketers can navigate this complex landscape by implementing privacy-first strategies. By utilizing confidential computing technologies, R3ach enables secure communication with users without accessing their personal information. This innovative solution not only facilitates targeted marketing campaigns but also empowers users by allowing them to control their data-sharing choices. As brands embrace these privacy-centric practices, they can reclaim consumer trust and establish long-lasting relationships, ultimately positioning themselves for success in a privacy-conscious market.

Arkreen's November 2024 Token Burn: A Commitment to Sustainability
Arkreen is making significant strides in promoting transparency and community trust through its monthly token burn initiative. For November 2024, the total burn of $AKRE tokens reached 1,016,816.02, reflecting the company's commitment to sustainability and accountability. The process involves a service fee for issuing tokenized Renewable Energy Certificates (ART), with each ART equating to 1000 $AKRE. In November, Arkreen issued 370.91467 ART, collecting fees amounting to 370,914.67 $AKRE. Of this, 296,731.74 $AKRE was allocated for burning, while 74,182.93 $AKRE was directed to the treasury, enhancing the ecosystem's financial health. In addition to the issuance fees, November 2024 marked a pivotal moment for Arkreen with the introduction of service fees for on-chain ART offsets. This new initiative allocates 80% of the collected fees for token burns, reinforcing the deflationary model of the ecosystem. Each ART offset incurs a fee of 1 ART = 1000 $AKRE, with the Arkreen Foundation currently sponsoring these fees during the smart contract upgrade. In November, 900.10535 ART offsets were processed, resulting in 720,084.28 $AKRE planned for burning and 180,021.07 $AKRE allocated to the treasury. Looking ahead, Arkreen remains dedicated to its mission of fostering a sustainable and decentralized future. The token burns are a crucial aspect of maintaining a deflationary model, which not only enhances value for stakeholders but also supports the growth of decentralized renewable energy solutions. With a remaining supply of 9,988,588,639.63 $AKRE, Arkreen is poised for future success, with additional burns planned based on utility revenue. The community is encouraged to stay engaged as Arkreen continues its journey toward a greener tomorrow, with the next update expected in January 2025.
