During a state audit, Rep. Min Byeong-deok plans to highlight Avail coin as the “second Burger Coin,” questioning its listing on domestic exchanges amid concerns of price manipulation. Avail, launched by Indian engineers behind Polygon, experienced drastic price fluctuations after its Bithumb listing, soaring from 263 won to 3,500 won in 15 minutes before plummeting to 296 won.
