About GOPAX
GOPAX (Global Online Professional Assets Exchange) was launched in November 2017 by Streami, Inc. - the first blockchain firm in Korea to be backed by a major bank (Shinhan Bank).
Since its launch, GOPAX has grown exponentially and is now one of the top 4 Korean exchanges and ranks in the top 20 worldwide.

About Steem
Steem is a blockchain-based rewards platform that helps entrepreneurs monetize their website and grow their communities. By providing a scalable blockchain protocol for storing publicly accessible and immutable content, along with a fast and fee-less digital token (called STEEM) the Steem blockchain empowers people to earn the token by using their brain (what is called “Proof-of-Brain”). More information can be found in the Steem Bluepaper.
In 2018, the Smart Media Tokens (SMTs) protocol will be presented to the community which may choose to add it to Steem. SMTs will allow entrepreneurs and community builders to launch their own customized Proof-of-Brain tokens with real-time fee-less transfers on the Steem blockchain. Along with built-in smart contracts that enable entirely new fundraising opportunities, SMTs will allow anyone to monetize their platform and bootstrap the value of their coin by leveraging all the lessons learned from STEEM and steemit.com. More details can be found in the SMT Whitepaper.

Let the rally begin! Looks like the Binance listing of Steem pairs caught the attention of many competing exchanges. I expect Steem and SBD listings on Bithumb sometime this year!
Doing anything with perfection is like wearing an impeccable suit the best way to make a great impression. Well done Steem team you are make a great impression.
This is great news for Steem,Steem and SBD to the moon soon.I like the new way @steemitblog is consistently updating the community.
This is great news for Steemit as i have realised the Korea influences the crypto market a lot! This will greatly help Steemit.
As a side note,a few days ago one of the leaders of #promo-steem @anarcotech posted of a crptocurency show that will happen in April in London and he had said it would be awesome if @ned represented at the show.
I personally promised to talk about that post if @steemitblog posts(which am doing now!).You can check out my comment is the first on top of that post and am now fulfilling my promise if @ned or any Steemit Inc could look at that post and see if they could attend.

Last time we added a Korean exchange we saw a pretty big pump. Looking forward to seeing what this one does to the price of Steem.
Maybe when good one-liner will be added, than money will flow faster through :)
@aggroed that is absolutely right! Good point you brought! Korean exchanges are experts in making crypto to the highest highs!
Regards, @gold84
We'll see. raise hope.
Nothing so far! Might take a week.
I'm hoping the same but I went there and found it's all Korean.
Too bad for the rest of us who does not understand the language.
It's always good to have an extra door for getting in and out, but ultimately it will be the sentiment in the crypto markets that will cause prices to rise or fall. If Steem is a solid ship it will rise with the rising tide. All initial pumps will find a base, and the solid ships will rise again while the leaky ones will sink. But I know you know all this @aggroed, I just wanted to make it clear for the less experienced :).
Nice, we definitely need more exchanges to list STEEM, get the trading volume up
This is a great news for all steemians. The steem blockchain is breaking grounds.With the introduction of SMT into the steem blockchain I see a lot of investors trooping in. This in turn will spike the price of steem.
Its really nice information. It encouragment for the steemit community. We all are steemit family members and hope it will grow more and sustain. Thanks for sharing.
This is awesome. Next stop coinbase! hahaha.
https://www.gopax.co.kr is an excellent option to make transactions and facilitates the exit of money in Steemit ..
good option to make currency exchange ... gopax came to stay .. :-)
This is great news! Getting more Korean investors could really benefit Steem, so it's great to see a Korean exchange list both Steem and SBD.
And thanks for sharing this news with us, @steemitblog. It really seems like you guys are doing better when it comes to interacting with the community and keeping us updated, which is something we all really appreciate!
