据 ZDNet Korea 报道，韩国国内 5 大原币种虚拟资产交易所日交易额截至 7月 20 日约为 4127 亿韩元，较一年前骤降 88%。交易额下滑与比特币价格走低密切相关——比特币去年 10 月创下 12.6 万美元历史高点后持续回落，目前在 6 万美元初横盘。全球加密货币总市值同比下降 41%至约 2.32 万亿美元，业内人士将当前行情定性为"第二次加密冬天"。受此冲击，韩国头部交易所 Dunamu（旗下 Upbit）一季度营收及营业利润同比分别下滑 55%和 78%；中小交易所 Korbit 为维持运营，今年已三度出售持仓资产，仅近期便通过抛售 15枚 BTC 和60枚 ETH 套现约 16 亿韩元。
According to The Asia Business Daily, DS Investment & Securities issued a research report lowering NAVER’s target price from its previous level to 300,000 KRW, while maintaining a “Buy” rating. Analyst Choi Seung-ho noted that the downward revision is primarily driven by two factors: first, NAVER’s operating profit margin for this year is projected to decline from 18.3% to 17.6%, due to rising advertising and e-commerce marketing expenses as well as depreciation costs; second, delayed legislative progress on cryptocurrency-related regulations is directly affecting the proposed merger between NAVER Financial and Dunamu, raising the possibility of further postponement beyond the originally scheduled completion in September. Previously, DS Securities had assigned a valuation of 15 trillion KRW to NAVER’s cryptocurrency business within its Sum-of-the-Parts (SOTP) valuation; this portion has now been removed from the updated report. Choi Seung-ho added that the e-commerce business remains NAVER’s core growth engine going forward, with annual e-commerce sales expected to reach approximately 2.7 trillion KRW.
