Upbit will begin trading OriginTrail's TRAC token on May 18, the exchange announced. The listing covers three markets — Korean won, Bitcoin, and Tether — giving traders direct access to the asset against both fiat and major crypto pairs.
Listing details
The TRAC token will open for trading at a specific time on May 18. Upbit has not yet disclosed the exact hour or any deposit/withdrawal schedule. The exchange typically announces such details closer to the listing date. Users can expect the usual 24-hour pre-listing deposit window, though Upbit hasn't confirmed that for this particular token.
Three trading pairs will go live: TRAC/KRW, TRAC/BTC, and TRAC/USDT. The KRW pair is notable — it lets Korean investors buy TRAC directly with local fiat, bypassing the need to first purchase Bitcoin or another stablecoin. The BTC and USDT pairs, meanwhile, cater to international traders and arbitrage opportunities.
OriginTrail is a blockchain project — the TRAC token is its native asset. Beyond that, the listing notice itself provides no additional detail on the project's technology or recent developments. That's standard for exchange announcements, which focus on logistics rather than project fundamentals.
Being listed on Upbit gives TRAC exposure to South Korea's active retail crypto market. Upbit is one of the country's largest exchanges by volume. The addition of a KRW pair means local traders won't need to convert through intermediate tokens — a friction point that often limits trading for smaller assets.
The listing also adds liquidity. With three pairs, TRAC can be traded against the most widely used base currencies on Upbit. That could tighten spreads and make it easier for holders to enter or exit positions. But none of that is guaranteed — trade volume depends on user demand and market conditions.
No other exchanges have announced simultaneous listings, and Upbit hasn't indicated any special events like a deposit contest or airdrop. The listing is straightforward: a new token, three pairs, one start date.
Trading is set to begin on May 18. Upbit will likely publish more precise timing — and the deposit opening window — in the days just before launch.
