Upbit, one of South Korea’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges, has officially announced that it will remove the NKN token from its platform as of June 15th. According to the information released by the exchange, trading support for NKN will end at 09:00 on June 15th. Following this decision, users are advised to close their open positions and withdraw their assets by that date.
Upbit stated that the delisting decision was made after a comprehensive review process. The company explained that the evaluations identified various shortcomings in the project and that the current situation posed potential risks to users. Exchange officials emphasized that protecting investors was the primary goal.
The statement noted that the decision was made after a detailed examination of the project’s business model, sustainability, ecosystem development, and level of technical progress. In addition, on-chain token ownership trends, trading volume in local and international markets, liquidity levels, and listing status on other major cryptocurrency exchanges were also considered as evaluation criteria.
NKN stood out as a blockchain-based project aiming to develop a decentralized network infrastructure. However, recent developments related to the project falling short of expectations and a decline in market activity have negatively impacted investor confidence.
Market analysts note that a delisting decision by a major exchange like Upbit could create short-term selling pressure on NKN. They point out that similar decisions have led to sharp price fluctuations in related tokens in the past.
Experts emphasize that investors should carefully monitor exchange announcements during delisting processes and that it is important for them to complete necessary transactions in advance to avoid delays, especially regarding withdrawal times.
