Chainalysis: AI tokens top Korean won trading, Worldcoin leads with $7.41B
- —AI tokens' share of won trading is 19.5 times larger than in yen pairs
- —Worldcoin saw $7.41B in volume, Sahara AI $3.2B and Virtuals $2.7B
- —South Korea's crypto economy grew 12.3% to $449.1B, driven by retail traders
- —WLD daily emissions were cut 43% to about 2.9 million tokens from July 24
Why it matters: The AI-token surge highlights Korean retail's appetite for risk, but a 22% crypto tax due in 2027 and rapid token rotation could reshuffle the leaders.
