Digital X (formerly Korbit): Korean spot service, fee campaign and rebrand

Digital X is the South Korean exchange formerly known as Korbit. Current official pages confirm its rebrand and zero-trading-fee promotion; bank, transfer and product terms remain route-specific.

By Editorial deskOperating status: ActivePublished Updated Sources checked
  • Korbit’s corporate and exchange names changed during August–September 2026.
  • Official sources support current zero trading commission, with a separate campaign notice.
  • Lending, staking, automated trading and BIZ are separate advertised services.

Digital X is the current brand of the Korean spot exchange previously called Korbit. Its corporate history places the Mirae Asset group relationship in July 2026, the company-name change in August and the exchange rebrand in September. Legacy Korbit links can therefore redirect to a Digital X domain.[2][3]

The advertised waiver covers trading commission. Each withdrawal has its own network and account conditions, so the final transfer quotation remains separate from the trading promotion.[4][3]

Hosted service and product separation

Sections ↑

This is a hosted exchange interface, distinct from a wallet whose user signs every transaction with a personal private key. Lending, staking and the spot account are separately presented services. Neither the rebrand nor the fee promotion establishes deposit insurance or a guarantee of token value.[2][3]

Domestic onboarding and business accounts

Sections ↑

The reviewed interface is a Korean domestic service. A complete current nationality, residency and linked-bank eligibility matrix was not available in the readable material. Applicants should use the current Digital X account-opening process; legacy Korbit descriptions and the BIZ navigation alone do not establish eligibility.[1][2]

Name changes do not change the type of permission

Sections ↑

DAXA’s 30 September 2026 reported-VASP directory pairs the Digital X legal entity with the service described as formerly Korbit and links its current domain. This industry-alliance directory corroborates identity continuity; it does not itself issue regulatory permission.[6][2]

Pricing scope
Official promotion advertises one year of zero trading commission from 24 August 2026, 09:00 KST; current fee-page navigation also displays zero. Transfer tariffs remain separate.
Funding scope
Official API documents KRW funding, crypto deposit addresses, withdrawal requests and transfers between the customer’s accounts. Account eligibility, supported networks and current withdrawal quotes govern actual access.
Custody and asset handling
Hosted exchange balances with separate main/subaccount records; documented transfer controls do not establish insured principal protection.
Client eligibility
Korean domestic onboarding; a complete current residency, nationality and banking eligibility matrix was not established from the readable public material.
Support
Use the current Digital X Notices, Evidence Centre and Frequently Asked Questions routes linked from its official interface.
Authorisation and registration scope
Corporate history and DAXA’s September reported-VASP directory corroborate the Korbit-to-Digital X transition. No fresh regulator-register finding is asserted.
