Eugene Investment: Tokenize Korean Stocks to Capture Global Demand

  • —Perpetual futures on Korean stocks across 11 exchanges hit $176 billion from Feb 19 to Aug 8
  • —SK Hynix made up 92% of volume at $161 billion, at times exceeding KRX spot turnover
  • —Correlation between Hyperliquid's post-close SK Hynix futures and next-day KRX open was 0.98
  • —Proposed phased tokenization starting with KOSPI names and a K-semiconductor ETF for institutions
Why it matters: Tokenizing Korean equities could link existing offshore demand to the domestic market and expand the role of on-chain infrastructure in stock trading.
