XRP Still Holding Out Strong
Recently, XRP ledger developers launched federated sidechains, which creates smart contract options and improves XRP ledger’s abilities. Also, one of Ripple network’s top executives, David Schwartz, reiterated the need for the platform to use NFTs as in-road towards asset management and development. Hence, Ripple has been investing in various NFT-related brands such as Mintable, Animoca and Jon Oringer.
A side benefit of creating and executing the federated sidechains is to enable Ripple to develop market-trendy offerings. Hence, these sidechains can lead to the development of stablecoins, NFTs or DeFi-related projects. Also, these sidechains can have individual ledgers since the federator software can merge the sidechains with XRP ledgers. Analysts have identified similar patterns between XRP price chart and IOTA before the latter’s strong bullish run few days ago.
FTX Exchange To Increase Its Spot Trading Offerings
Various news sources agree that the FTX crypto exchange will soon add spot trading of different new digital assets in the next few months. AAVX, DOT and ADA are among the well-known tokens that FTX is planning to add. FTX’s decision to increase its spot trading offering is one way it plans to expand its client base by attracting more retail investors.
Ftc CEO, Sam Bankman-fried, said FTX is increasing its service offering to ensure it covers almost all the tokens of the important blockchains in the crypto sphere. Bankman-fried remarked the three tokens mentioned above are attracting the highest from its exchange userbase. Despite being among the top four crypto exchanges, FTX aims to keep growing to become the number one crypto exchange globally.
Why FTX Is Focused On Those Three Tokens
While bitcoin is still struggling to surpass its $50K key resistance, almost all the altcoins are on a bullish run. ADA’s parent company, Cardano, is set for a new update to enable the blockchain to start offering smart contracts. Hence, ADA’s price has been rising sharply to that effect.
Even though DOT and AAVE are relatively new, they have surged in popularity, volume and audience to attract the attention of top exchanges, including FTX. While FTX’s primary product offering is futures products, it has a spot trading offering which it now seeks to keep expanding.
