Mirae Asset Group in Talks on $70M–$100M Acquisition of Korean Crypto Exchange Korbit

Mirae Asset Group has entered discussions to acquire South Korean crypto exchange Korbit for an estimated 100B to 140B won, with talks handled by affiliate Mirae Asset Consulting. Korbit, majority-owned by NXC and SK Planet, holds about 0.5% of local trading volume but is seen as valuable for its regulated exchange license and banking connections as institutional interest in Korean crypto markets grows.
