Reading the ADA premium
A positive number means Cardano is more expensive on Upbit than it is on Binance once the Binance price is converted into won. A negative number means it is cheaper in Korea — a reverse premium.
The conversion uses Upbit's own KRW-USDT market rather than the official daily bank rate, because the official rate is fixed once per business day while crypto trades continuously. See the methodology, or read the complete guide for why the premium exists and why it is hard to arbitrage away.
