Bring Koreans from AI trade to start a crypto rally. Crypto used to account for up to 60% of equities trading volume, but now it has dropped to just 1% of KOSPI. Koreans simple left crypto for AI. hard to blame them when they 1) prefer alts to BTC, especially XRP and 2) they are trading at all time lows. Yet the moment KOSPI dropped, crypto volumes recovered. So rotation is almost immediate. And my intuition is that this applies to different countries as well, although with slower and more muted impact. Fair to claim that until AI trade is done crypto can't fully run? Although I still believe we can run hard until end of 2026 because from next year 22% crypto tax starts in Korea. So the last run to make it all back can be crypto.(Ignas | DeFi)
