South Korean exchanges pay up to 3,500 euros per bitcoin
In South Korea, the world is already slightly different: due to their great technical affinity, South Korean users are already seeing a bigger purpose in Bitcoin - and are currently paying 3,561 euros (3,994 US dollars) per bitcoin.
Asia at the top
Whether it is Japan , China or India, Asia is a place where innovation is a joy. Digital currencies are in great demand. At present a new boom in South Korea seems to have arrived.
The country, which has a population of about 51 million, is particularly interested in new technology. The South Korean stock exchange Coinone reflects this great interest , because currently there are currently trading 4.471.000 Korean Won for a bitcoin. The 3,560 euro - perhaps soon the new Bitcoin price in the West?
In Japan it looks similar at the moment. The Japanese stock market bitFlyer also recorded higher prices, but not so much in comparison to South Korea. Just 329,700 Japanese yen is paid there per bitcoin - this is just 2.630 euros or 2.950 US dollars.

Meanwhile, Ethereum Classic shot up unexpectedly. The reason is mainly Barry Silvert's tweet . The Ethereum Classic Investment Trust is now investing some 390,000 US dollars each year in development, marketing and community support.
