Question 1

What is Solana?

Accepted Answer

Solana is a high-speed layer-1 blockchain designed to handle large volumes of transactions with low fees.

It uses a mix of proof-of-history and proof-of-stake to process transactions quickly, with confirmation times that are often near-instant during normal conditions. This setup allows the network to handle heavy activity without slowing down, which is why traders often move to Solana during busy market periods.

Solana has grown into a major hub for DeFi, NFTs, and meme coin trading. The low cost per transaction makes it practical for frequent trading and smaller position sizes that would be expensive on slower networks.

The network focuses on speed and scalability, even if that means making trade-offs on decentralisation.

Question 3

What is the kimchi premium and how does it affect Solana’s KRW price?

Accepted Answer

The kimchi premium is the price gap where crypto trades higher on South Korean exchanges than on global markets. This happens because capital controls make it hard to move funds in and out to close the gap, while strong local demand pushes prices up.

As a result, the SOL price in KRW can sit a few percent above the global market, and that gap often widens during fast rallies. Solana tends to show a larger premium than Bitcoin or Ethereum, especially when momentum picks up.

Question 4

How do South Korea’s crypto regulations affect Solana trading?

Accepted Answer

South Korea’s rules make crypto trading more controlled, but still accessible if you meet the requirements.

You need a verified exchange account with full KYC and a real-name bank account linked to it. This ties every trade to your identity and limits anonymous activity, which also makes moving funds between local and offshore markets less flexible.

Regulators also review listed assets from time to time. Solana is widely recognised and actively traded, so the risk of it being removed from major Korean exchanges is relatively low.

Tax rules are still developing, so your net returns can change depending on new policies. So it’s important to keep an eye on regulatory updates, especially if you trade frequently or move size.

Question 5

Can I trade Solana on BitMEX?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can trade Solana on BitMEX through both spot and derivatives markets.

You can buy and hold SOL on the spot market, or trade its price using perpetual swap contracts with leverage. Derivatives let you go long or short without owning the token, which is useful for trading short-term moves or hedging exposure.

Create an account on BitMEX to access SOL markets, review contract specs, and choose your leverage before placing a trade.
