SAND Jumps 69% in a Week After Korean Exchanges Lift Trading Caution

  • —SAND rose from $0.044 to $0.081 by October 3, then pulled back to $0.073
  • —The 68.82% weekly gain followed the removal of the caution by Upbit, Bithumb and Coinone
  • —The August caution came after an attacker minted $49 billion in unbacked SAND via Base and BNB Chain bridges
  • —SAND trades 98.98% below its 2021 all-time high above $7
Why it matters: The rally is purely technical, driven by lifted exchange restrictions rather than user activity, so it may prove short-lived.
