A KRW pair can concentrate domestic liquidity and improve price discovery during local hours. If order controls bind in the first minutes, initial prints may cluster near the reference price before spreads normalize.Cross-venue price differences may emerge temporarily, especially between KRW books and USD-quoted markets, until arbitrage equilibrates inventories. Limit-only phases tend to dampen sweeping market orders but can widen spreads early on.If inbound flows outpace available asks during the restricted window, book depth may thin and amplify intraday volatility. Conversely, tight sell-range controls can constrain downside prints and create a more orderly open.At the time of this writing, recent coverage places LIT within the $1.60–$1.70 band, as reported by CoinGabbar. This contextual range frames near-term liquidity tests without implying future performance.
