The Most Marketing-Savvy Exchange Partners with Star Football Teams
FC Seoul is one of the most famous teams in the K League, with its home stadium in the Mapo District of Seoul. The team is currently owned by GS Sports, a subsidiary of the GS Group. The team boasts South Korean football star Gi Sung-yueng and former England national team player Jesse Lingard, who joined last season, and is one of the K League teams with the highest home attendance.
Bithumb, on the other hand, is the second-largest exchange in South Korea in terms of trading volume, second only to Upbit. However, with Upbit facing suspension sanctions, Bithumb is seen as having the opportunity to surpass it. Bithumb is also an exchange that is very adept at marketing, having previously collaborated with local convenience stores to launch a Bit lunchbox promotion.
