PANews reported on August 14th that, according to News1, South Korean crypto exchange Bithumb achieved revenue of 329.1 billion won in the first half of 2025, a year-on-year increase of 35%. Operating profit was 90.1 billion won, a year-on-year decrease of 5.7%, and net profit was 55 billion won, a year-on-year decrease of 46.5%. The company attributed the profit decline to increased user welfare expenses and losses from crypto asset valuations, while revenue growth was primarily driven by rising prices of crypto assets such as Bitcoin and a rebound in market investment sentiment.
