South Korea's new stock exchange considers launching K-pop tokens to attract more traders
Jinse Finance reported that as an emerging competitor to Korea's major securities exchanges, this startup trading platform is hoping to expand its appeal by launching innovative products, such as digital tokens linked to K-pop song copyrights, building on its strong start. Nextrade, an alternative trading system, broke the Korea Exchange's 70-year monopoly this March by extending trading hours. CEO Kim Haksoo stated that the company is considering launching over-the-counter trading products to differentiate itself. Long-term plans also include leveraged and inverse ETFs, advanced order systems, and non-public institutional orders derived from the "dark pool" concept.
