Up until early 2018, major cryptocurrency markets the likes of South Korea and Japan demonstrated high premiums for Bitcoin.
At the 2017 peak, when the Bitcoin price was trading at around $20,000 in the U.S. spot market, Bitcoin was being traded in South Korea’s cryptocurrency exchange market for around 26,000,000 Korean won, equivalent to about $22,000.
This difference is now known as the Kimchi premium.

Toncoin Plummets and Rebounds Amid Pavel Durov’s Arrest and Release
The cryptocurrency market witnessed significant turbulence last week following the arrest and subsequent release of Pavel Durov, the CEO of Telegram. Toncoin (TON), the cryptocurrency associated with Telegram, experienced dramatic price fluctuations in response to these events.
On August 24, 2024, Durov was arrested by French authorities at Le Bourget airport near Paris, facing charges related to data privacy and cryptocurrency regulation violations. The news of his arrest led to a sharp decline in Toncoin’s price, plummeting by approximately 25% to $5.24 as panic selling ensued among investors. This sudden drop highlighted the market’s sensitivity to legal issues involving key figures in the cryptocurrency space.
However, the situation took another turn when Durov was released on bail on August 29, 2024. The court set his bail at $5.56 million, and the news of his release provided a much-needed boost to Toncoin’s price. Following the announcement, Toncoin rebounded by over 6%, climbing to $5.59. This recovery, although partial, indicated a renewed confidence among investors, albeit tempered by ongoing uncertainties.
The arrest and release of Durov have underscored the volatility inherent in the cryptocurrency market, particularly for assets closely tied to influential individuals. While the immediate impact on Toncoin’s price was significant, the long-term effects will depend on the resolution of the legal issues facing Durov and the broader regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies.
As the market continues to react to these developments, investors are advised to remain cautious and stay informed about potential risks. The case of Toncoin serves as a reminder of the complexities and uncertainties that can influence the value of digital assets.
