The most mentioned event in the KOL community is reports about the loss of Bitcoin seized during criminal investigations by prosecutorial authorities. As news of losses amounting to hundreds of billions of Korean won spread, reactions criticizing management loopholes and internal control issues continued to emerge. Particularly, claims about incidents occurring during access to phishing websites were shared, further escalating the controversy.

Controversy over Bitcoin Seizure Loss… Public Custody Concerns Spread

The news that the Gwangju District Prosecutors’ Office lost seized Bitcoin during routine inspections quickly spread through multiple KOL channels. Citing internal sources mentioning a loss scale of up to 700 billion Korean won, the community expressed concerns about the overall virtual asset custody methods of public institutions. Some KOLs referenced similar past cases involving police and prosecutors, sharing opinions on the limitations of personal wallet-level management. Many also mentioned the necessity of collaboration with exchanges or professional custody companies.

Increase in Macro Indicator Mentions… Copper-Gold Ratio and Bitcoin

Regarding market trends, mentions of the copper-gold ratio attracted attention. It was shared that this ratio has been continuously declining, and based on past cases, a Bitcoin bull market was observed after forming a bottom. The KOL community regards this as an indicator for simultaneously observing global economic trends and risk asset preferences, and believes it is necessary to continue monitoring. Compared to short-term price predictions, the focus is on content indicating changes in the medium- and long-term environment.

Listing and Airdrop Topics… Expectations and Caution Coexist

Meanwhile, sharing of experiences related to new listings and airdrops is also active. Short-term high-yield cases of certain tokens became topics, but at the same time, structural risks such as foundation sell-offs and withdrawal limits were also warned about. The KOL community responded that, rather than focusing solely on listing events, it is more important to examine circulation structures and foundation movements simultaneously.

The top KOL community content for the day mainly focused on information about the risks of virtual asset custody by public institutions and related制度 and management issues. Additionally, content that interprets market conditions through macro indicators or points out structural aspects of listing and airdrop events also received high attention.
