While the stock market's trading volume has increased significantly as the KOSPI index recently surged, the scale of the domestic crypto market's trading volume has dropped sharply to a mere 2% compared to the KOSPI.

According to Maeil Business Newspaper, the daily trading volume of the KOSPI recorded 118.267 trillion won as of May 29. In contrast, the 24-hour trading volume of the nation's top five digital asset exchanges (Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax) on the same day was only 2.713 trillion won.

This presents a starkly contrasting picture to the bullish atmosphere of the crypto market just a year ago.
