It is a truth universally acknowledged that a crypto exchange in possession of good fortune must be in want of a halving event. 🤑 Dunamu, the esteemed operator of the South Korean crypto exchange Upbit, has indeed found itself in such a fortunate position, posting an 85.1% surge in operating profit for the year 2024. This remarkable achievement, it seems, owes much to the whims of Bitcoin’s halving and the rather unexpected pro-crypto policies emerging from the United States.
Dunamu, a company of no small repute, has enjoyed a year of considerable prosperity, with both revenue and profit ascending to heights most would deem enviable. Its latest earnings report, a document of no little importance, suggests that improved investor sentiment and certain pivotal crypto events may have conspired to bring about this felicitous outcome. 📈
According to the company’s regulatory filing—a tome of such detail as to make even the most diligent of accountants blush—its 2024 revenue reached the princely sum of KRW 1.7316 trillion (approximately $1.3 billion), marking a 70.5% increase from the previous year. Operating profit, however, outshone even this impressive figure, surging 85.1% to KRW 1.1863 trillion, while net income rose a modest 22.2%. One might say Dunamu has found itself in the enviable position of having more money than it knows what to do with. 💰
The company, ever the astute observer of its own fortunes, has identified several possible reasons for this growth. “Bitcoin halving and improved investor sentiment,” it declares, have played no small part. Hopes surrounding U.S. policies, too, may have lent a helping hand. Dunamu points to “anticipation of pro-crypto policies following Donald Trump’s election” and the Federal Reserve’s rate-cut stance as factors that “appear to have significantly contributed.” One might almost imagine Mr. Trump himself, with a flourish of his pen, bestowing his blessings upon the crypto world. 🖋️
This earnings report arrives at a most opportune moment, just as Upbit catches a much-needed reprieve in its legal skirmishes. A South Korean court, in a move that can only be described as judicious, has temporarily lifted a three-month business suspension that had barred the exchange from onboarding new clients. 🎉
Back in February, the country’s Financial Intelligence Unit, in a fit of bureaucratic zeal, sanctioned Upbit, blocking deposits and withdrawals for new users. The FIU alleged that the exchange had violated rules by dealing with unregistered virtual asset service providers—a charge that Dunamu, with no small measure of indignation, swiftly contested. The company filed a lawsuit against the FIU, challenging the suspension and seeking an injunction to lift the ban. On March 27, local news outlets reported that a Korean court had granted the injunction, postponing the suspension until 30 days after a final ruling. One might say that Dunamu has emerged from this ordeal with its honor—and its profits—intact. ⚖️
