South Korea-based cryptocurrency exchange Upbit has published a significant correction announcement regarding its new digital asset listing schedule. The exchange informed users that an error had been made in the previously announced Superform (UP2) trading start time. The initial announcement stated the start date as May 14th at 8:30 PM; however, the correction has been updated to May 13th at 8:30 PM.
Upbit management apologized to users for the misinformation and announced that the updated schedule is now valid. Accordingly, UP2 will begin trading in Korean won (KRW), Bitcoin (BTC), and Tether (USDT). Deposit and withdrawal operations will become active approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes after the announcement is published.
The UP2 token will only be supported via the Base Network. Users are reminded that transfers over different networks will not be supported and that the processing time for such transactions may be lengthy. The exchange also announced that the symbol “UP2” was chosen to avoid confusion with the “UP” token, which was delisted in the past.
Superform stands out as a user-centric neobank infrastructure aiming to simplify complex transactions across multiple blockchain networks. The platform allows processes such as bridging, swapping, and asset deposits to be completed with a single signature. By enabling users to pay transaction fees with stablecoins, the system aims to offer cross-chain return optimization.
Upbit will restrict buy orders for the first 5 minutes of the listing process, and will only allow limit orders for approximately two hours. This measure is being implemented to maintain market stability.
