South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Bithumb has revealed plans to list two altcoins—BOB (Build on Bitcoin) and OriginTrail (TRAC)—with direct trading pairs against the South Korean Won (KRW). According to the exchange's announcement, trading for BOB/KRW will open at 15:00 local time (6:00 a.m. UTC) on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, followed by TRAC/KRW at 17:00 local time (8:00 a.m. UTC) the same day.
To stimulate user interest, Bithumb will eliminate transaction fees for both assets from the start of trading on December 3 until 17:00 on December 5, 2025. However, trades executed during this promotional window will not qualify for trading points, maker rewards, or Black Premium benefit calculations if deemed unrewarded or suspicious.
The starting prices are set at 16.90 KRW for BOB and 738 KRW for TRAC. Deposits and withdrawals for both tokens will become available within three hours of the announcement.
BOB is highlighted as a hybrid Layer-2 solution that combines Bitcoin's security with Ethereum's scalability through OP Stack-based EVM compatibility, enabling developers to build decentralized applications. The BOB token serves staking, governance, and network incentive functions.
OriginTrail (TRAC) powers a decentralized knowledge graph (DKG) designed to create trustworthy data bridges between blockchain and AI, with the TRAC token used for transactions, fees, and staking within its ecosystem.
This move is viewed as a strategic effort by Bithumb to diversify its portfolio and enhance accessibility for South Korean investors, potentially boosting liquidity and market validation for both projects.
