# KAIA Rallies 63.96% After Upbit Plans Three New Markets By Enna Lee Canonical URL: https://www.tokenpost.com/news/investing/29444 Published: 2026-10-10T08:03:20.000Z Updated: 2026-10-10T08:03:20.000Z Section: Investing > KAIA climbed from $0.0369 to $0.0605 on Oct. 9 as trading activity and perpetual-contract open interest rose sharply. Kaia (KAIA) surged 63.96% to $0.0605 on Oct. 9 after Upbit planned to add markets against the Korean won, Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether (USDT), pushing the token to levels last seen in February and May. KAIA rose from $0.0369 during the move. [Upbit’s planned KAIA market expansion]() preceded the rally and would give the token additional trading pairs on the South Korean exchange. Trading activity increased sharply. Volume on the Binance KAIA/USDT spot pair rose nearly 21-fold, while open interest in KAIA perpetual contracts climbed 431% over 24 hours. The rally challenged the weekly supply zone around $0.06. A move above $0.065 would mark a bullish continuation signal, while the $0.0969 swing high remains the level needed for a broader shift in the weekly structure. Weekly relative strength index and on-balance volume reached yearly highs. Chaikin money flow also moved into positive territory but remained below 0.05. The advance left a potential correction area near $0.045. A decline below $0.04 would weaken the bullish setup, while $0.10 represents psychological resistance. ## Links in this article - [Upbit’s planned KAIA market expansion](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/investing/28805)
