Korean crypto investors shifted in 2025 from aggressive accumulation to strategic profit-taking, according to the Bank of Korea — even as Bitcoin moved above $100,000.

While trading activity remains high (156.8% turnover vs. 111.6% globally), the behavior has changed from buying breakouts to selling into strength.

Because Korea plays an outsized role in global crypto liquidity, this shift may lead to:

Weaker late-stage bullish momentum

Higher short-term volatility

More resistance near psychological price levels

Rather than signaling a market exit, the move reflects cycle maturity, where disciplined profit-taking replaces speculative accumulation.#USCryptoStakingTaxReview #Binanceholdermmt #BinancehodlerSOMI $BTC $ETH $XRP
