South Korea’s New President & Crypto Plans: A Surprising Mix of Ambition and Policy

According to the ever-reliable Reuters, Lee snagged over 49% of the vote, defeating his right-leaning rival Kim Moon-soo who managed just 41.15%.

The price targets range from a modest $4.29 to the much grander $26.6-$28.8, but wait—here come the truly audacious ones: $589 and $1458.3! 🌚
