Bithumb Launches New Member Event with Emart

Bithumb, a domestic virtual asset (cryptocurrency) exchange, announced on the 23rd that it is holding an event for new members in collaboration with Emart.

This event is for customers who sign up for Bithumb for the first time and will run until June 30th. Participants can receive benefits such as a mobile voucher 'Ematicon' to purchase two high-sugar watermelons at Emart and Bithumb KRW.

To participate, new members must complete the customer verification (KYC) process and link their KB Kookmin Bank account, then register the coupon code issued by the Emart application in the Bithumb app. Users who complete this process will immediately receive 20,000 KRW in Bithumb, and up to an additional 20,000 KRW can be provided upon completing the 'Welcome Mission'.

Additionally, a 35,000 KRW 'Ematicon' will be provided. The Ematicon will be delivered via text message on the next business day based on the coupon registration date and can be used until the end of the year. New members who upgrade their Bithumb membership level to Blue or higher by July will receive an additional 30,000 KRW in Bithumb.

The provided Bithumb KRW can be withdrawn after trading, and if there is no transaction within 30 days after the event ends, the amount will automatically expire. Rewards for achieving Blue membership will be distributed via text message on July 4th.

Moon Sun-il, head of Bithumb's service division, said, "We planned this event with Emart, focusing on watermelons, a representative seasonal fruit, ahead of the full-fledged summer season," adding, "Bithumb will continue to offer unique virtual asset experiences with customized events reflecting consumer trends."
