The price per box is 5,900 Korean won, which is $4.30.<\/p>\n<p>Reportedly, a spokesperson from <strong>Bithumb<\/strong> told local media that users who download the exchange&#8217;s app and input the coupon code found in each food box could win 10,000 won worth of Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>When you open a Bitcoin account with NH Nonghyup Bank, <strong>Bithumb<\/strong> will give you 20,000 won worth of bitcoin. According to the representative, in order to get the extra Bitcoin, users who already have an account need to link it to <strong>Bithumb<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Among the several cryptocurrency exchanges operating in South Korea, <strong>Bithumb<\/strong> stands out. It is one of the five members of the Digital Asset Exchange Association (DAXA) that include Upbit, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax.<\/p>\n<p>Despite a postponement of its initial public offering, the company still intends to become the first cryptocurrency exchange listed on the stock market in South Korea.<\/p>\n<p>Following the much-anticipated halving event on April 20, there has been persistent excitement surrounding the cryptocurrency, and this new Bitcoin dinner box is just the latest example.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Price Decline After Halving Event<\/h2>\n<p>Nearly $74,000 was the new all-time high for the cryptocurrency in March. The present price decline, according to analysts, is due to &#8220;boredom&#8221; on the part of Bitcoin bulls following the halving.<\/p>\n<p>After the US approved the first Bitcoin ETFs (exchange-traded funds) on January 10, Bitcoin gained traction.<\/p>\n<p>According to reports that surfaced on May 7, a newly elected democratic party in South Korea has pledged to permit Bitcoin ETFs. The party plans to submit the proposal after the June inauguration of the National Assembly.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, South Korean regulators have been keeping a closer eye on the cryptocurrency market in recent years. New regulations for cryptocurrency exchanges and harsher punishments for crypto-related offenses were introduced by lawmakers in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>South Korean financial authorities started requesting that cryptocurrency holders notify any illegal exchanges providing services in the nation towards the end of 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new Bitcoin &#8220;meal box&#8221; will be available for purchase in-store, thanks to a partnership between South Korean convenience store chain Emart24 and local cryptocurrency exchange Bithumb.
