The head of the Financial Supervisory Service of South Korea: We are investigating various abnormal transactions including AVAIL on Bithumb
On October 17th, the Chairman of the Financial Supervisory Service of South Korea, Lee Ju-yeol, stated during a parliamentary audit that "we are investigating the issue of AVAIL coins traded on Bithumb." AVAIL was listed at 263 Korean won on July 23rd and rose to 3,500 Korean won within 15 minutes, but it fell to 296 Korean won less than a day later, raising suspicions of price manipulation. In response, Min Byoung-dug, a member of the South Korean Democratic Party, stated that "the AVAIL token incident means that Bithumb's own abnormal trading system did not work at all. Bithumb said that only trades that account for more than 5% of the total issuance would be considered abnormal trades."
