Upbit will begin trading OPG against the Korean won on July 7, with the pair going live at approximately 15:30 KST.\n\nThis isn’t OPG’s first rodeo on the platform. Upbit already listed the token against BTC and USDT on June 15, and the market’s reaction was enthusiastic: trading volume surged roughly 600% within 24 hours.\n\n## What happened last time, and why KRW matters\n\nWhen OPG first landed on Upbit in mid-June, the price swung between roughly $0.18 and $0.31 intraday.\n\nAs of early July, OPG is trading in the $0.12 to $0.18 range across major platforms including Binance and Bybit. The token has a total supply capped at 1 billion, with approximately 20% currently in circulation.\n\n## What OpenGradient actually does\n\nOpenGradient positions itself as a decentralized AI infrastructure network built to facilitate verifiable AI computations for blockchains and decentralized applications. The project uses a hybrid architecture that combines GPU compute power with cryptographic verification methods like zkML (zero-knowledge machine learning) and TEE (trusted execution environment) attestations.\n\nOpenGradient has logged over 2 million verifiable inferences, hosts more than 4,000 models, and has generated above 500,000 proofs and attestations. Those are real usage metrics for a project that only completed its token generation event in April 2026.\n\nThat TGE raised $9.5 million. OPG operates on the Base network, which previously required LayerZero bridging for deposits and withdrawals on Upbit, adding a small friction layer for Korean traders.\n\n## What this means for investors\n\nThe 600% volume surge from the June 15 listing showed genuine market appetite for OPG among Korean traders, but intraday swings of nearly 72%, from $0.18 to $0.31, also showed that this appetite comes with a healthy dose of speculation.\n\nWith only about 20% of the 1 billion token supply currently circulating, future unlock events could create significant selling pressure. Tokens with low float and high fully diluted valuations tend to look great on the way up and considerably less great when supply hits the market.\n\n**Disclosure:** This article was edited by Editorial Team.
