SCOOP: Several projects told WuBlockchain that they paid huge intermediary fees to have their tokens listed on South Korea's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, Upbit and Bithumb. The fees were approximately US$10 million and US$2 million respectively. The intermediaries are related to Upbit's shareholders and market makers.
Some projects also indicated that they provided an intermediary fee ranging from 3% to 5% of the total token amount, and eventually managed to get listed on Upbit successfully. However, not all projects paid the intermediary fees. Among the seven projects that WuBlockchain reached out to, three stated that they didn't pay any intermediary fees. : Wu Blockchain News
