Trader Bonk Guy (Unipcs) posted that he has long considered USELESS to be this cycle's equivalent to DOGE, SHIB, or PEPE, yet many continue to disregard it. He noted that South Korea's two major centralized exchanges, Upbit and Bithumb, listed USELESS just hours apart today, granting it a major new distribution channel from one of the world's key crypto markets. Bonk Guy further emphasized that attention should remain on whether USELESS will be listed on Hyperliquid, Robinhood, or Binance Spot next. He argued that instead of debating whether USELESS will emerge as this cycle's flagship memecoin, focus should shift to how high its price can potentially reach, as the underlying pattern is becoming increasingly clear. He also noted that investors can either accumulate USELESS now or wait until its market cap reaches several billion dollars, perceiving that stage as "safer".

According to South Korean media outlet Daum, an analysis of the public APIs of South Korea's top five KRW exchanges, Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit and GOPAX, as well as CoinGecko, reveals that after eliminating duplicate assets, the five exchanges collectively support approximately 606 crypto assets, of which 164 (27.1%) are listed on only one exchange, and another 324 (53.5%) are traded on two or fewer exchanges.

According to South Korean media outlet Digital Asset, the Seoul Central District Court ruled on August 27 that Bithumb won an unjust enrichment restitution lawsuit against a user, ordering them to return the proceeds from the sale of mistakenly sent Bitcoin. The case involves approximately 194 million KRW and is one of four independent lawsuits filed by Bithumb following a February BTC mis-issuance incident this year; the amounts involved in the remaining cases are approximately 500 million KRW, 14.8 million KRW, and 5 million KRW, respectively. Previously, Bithumb had mistakenly distributed 620,000 BTC to users as part of an activity reward program and subsequently launched a recovery initiative. In March, the exchange reported to the National Assembly that nearly 99% of the remaining unrecovered 1,788 BTC had been successfully reclaimed. The first ruling, which affirms the exchange's right to recover proceeds from the sale of mistakenly issued assets, may increase the likelihood of Bithumb prevailing in the other three cases.

According to Cryptopolitan, South Korea's Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) has launched a three-month fraud refund system reconstruction project with a budget of approximately 119 million Korean won. This upgrade aims to align with the revised "Telecommunications Fraud Damage Compensation Act" amended on March 31 this year—the bill will officially take effect on October 1, formally incorporating virtual assets into the scope of "damaged property" and "refundable property." The new system will support calculating compensation amounts based on token type and quantity, using the Korean won value at the time funds were frozen as a reference benchmark, while also possessing the ability to disentangle mixed fraud funds across multiple accounts. Major exchanges such as Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and GOPAX will be required to assume anti-fraud and victim relief obligations equivalent to those of banks at that time, including verifying transaction purposes, monitoring suspicious funds, and freezing suspected accounts.
