Upbit Lists Decentralized AI Token OpenGradient (OPG) on Korean Won Market

Upbit, a South Korean cryptocurrency exchange, has added OpenGradient (OPG), a decentralized artificial intelligence infrastructure network, to its Korean won market.

According to an Upbit notice, trading support for OPG on the Korean won market began at 3:30 p.m. on July 7.

Some restrictions apply to initial trading to help ensure a safe trading environment. Buy orders are blocked for about five minutes after trading begins. Lowest-price sell orders set at 10% or more below the previous day's closing price are also restricted. For the first two hours, all order types except limit orders are unavailable.

Deposits and withdrawals of OPG must be made through the Base network. Transfers through networks other than the one specified in the notice are not supported.

OpenGradient, newly listed on the Korean won market, is a decentralized AI infrastructure network built to support verifiable AI execution. The project aims to address the so-called AI black box problem in centralized AI services, where users cannot verify internal computation processes or whether data has been altered.

To do that, it introduced a Hybrid AI Compute Architecture, or HACA, that separates AI inference execution from verification. Full nodes, inference nodes and data nodes divide responsibility for verification, execution and data supply, respectively. OPG is used within the ecosystem for payments, service access, staking and governance. After the mainnet launch, it is also slated to be used for transaction fees.
