Bithumb Lists Eclipse Token on KRW Pair July 16 2025

South Korea's leading cryptocurrency exchange, Bithumb, has announced the listing of its Eclipse (ES) token on the Korean won (KRW) trading pair for its domestic users. The listing is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, July 16, 2025. This move is part of Bithumb's strategy to offer new investment opportunities to its local users and to increase token diversity in the local market.

The Eclipse (ES) token will be available for trading on the ES/KRW pair, with support limited to the Eclipse network. Investments from other networks will not be supported. Deposits and withdrawals will commence at 18:00 on July 16, 2025, with the trading process starting at 19:00. The opening price for the ES token is set at 583 KRW, with a block confirmation count of 10.

To ensure user safety, Bithumb has implemented temporary restrictions on new asset listings. Buy orders will be restricted during the first five minutes after trading begins. Sell orders at prices 10% below or 100% above the opening price will be blocked within the first five minutes. Automatic orders will only be activated after the first transaction has been executed.

Bithumb has also emphasized the high risk inherent in cryptocurrencies and has advised investors to conduct thorough research before making any investment decisions. Users are encouraged to consult sources such as the official website and whitepaper for more information about the Eclipse project.

This announcement comes as Bithumb continues to navigate the dynamic cryptocurrency market. The exchange has previously announced a temporary suspension of DYDX token deposits and withdrawals due to a mainnet upgrade scheduled for the same day as the Eclipse listing. This suspension is expected to impact users who hold DYDX tokens on the platform.

The listing of the Eclipse (ES) token on Bithumb's KRW trading pair is a significant development for the cryptocurrency exchange and its users. It provides an opportunity for local investors to diversify their portfolios and gain exposure to a new token. However, it is important for investors to be aware of the risks associated with cryptocurrency investments and to conduct thorough research before making any investment decisions.
