Key points
- Collector Crypt (CARDS) added to Upbit KRW, BTC and USDT markets on 5 November (trading from 16:30 KST / 07:30 London)
- CARDS was about +16% near $0.29 around 13:25 London; intraday prints briefly near $0.333 (~+30%)
- Coinbase had placed CARDS on its listing roadmap on 3 November — trading still conditional, no start date
- Official Trump fell about 16% toward $1.26 after the Democratic midterm sweep
Collector Crypt jumped about 16% to near $0.29 after Upbit confirmed KRW, BTC and USDT trading pairs for the Solana-based CARDS token. Upbit’s notice set trading for 16:30 Korea time on 5 November, with Solana-only deposits and temporary order limits at launch. Desk and market snapshots also showed an intraday spike toward about $0.333 — roughly a 30% burst — before some of those gains faded. Separately, Coinbase Assets had added CARDS to its listing roadmap on 3 November; that step does not start trading and still depends on market-making and technical readiness. Meanwhile, Official Trump fell about 16% toward $1.26 after Democrats swept the midterms.
