CEO CZ Invites XRP as Base Currency For Binance

Changpeng Zhao (aka CZ), CEO at Binance has surprised and delighted crypto-exchange fans by inviting members of the XRP Community to offer their top pitches for why they think he ought to couple the digital asset with every other coin on the exchange.

CZ tweeted the invite on Sunday, showing his fun-loving side and how in-touch he is with the crypto-currency community.

This frisky tweet is in response to the XRP community’s endless calls to make their currency the standard. They constantly bombard CZ’s tweets with comments to this effect, so it’ll come as no surprise that he has decided to answer back at last, albeit rather tongue-in-cheek!

A Plethora of Memes

After tweeting, a plethora of memes were sent to CZ from the XRP community to try and convince him that this really was the best and only way forward in their eyes!

According to one follower, going by the name of Bank XRP, who responded to CZ’s tweet earlier today, there are four main reasons why:

• Environmentally friendly
• Reliable
• Low Transaction Fees
• Fast

CZ wowed and delighted his followers even further by also tweeting a LinkedIn link to his witty, step-by-step guide on exactly how to get your coin listed on Binance.com.

Tips include advising against trying to put pressure on Binance to list your coin and suggests that the best way to get your coin listed would be to work hard on your project and that keeping Binance updated will highly increase the chance of being listed.

As CEO of Binance.com, CZ also shows his followers that lack of greed also prevails – all listing fees paid to Binance.com will be donated to charity.

Having taken over Ethereum as the second largest cryptocurrency in the world, XRP investors suggest that Binance should couple all its cryptocurrencies with XRP. For those of you who may not be aware,  after overtaking Ethereum for the second time in one month, after a tense battle, XRP has now succeeded in achieving second place right behind Bitcoin!

This has all been largely aided by Ripple’s efforts to increase its customer base over the past few months. Further banks are joining the RippleNet where XRP is employed as a base currency using xRapid in cross-border funds transfers.

CIMB is Ripple’s most recent addition. Boasting its ranking as the fifth bank in ASEAN, CIMB Group enters RippleNet and implements Ripple’s tech. This will ensure that the bank provides its customers with instantaneous cross-border payments. Ripple reports that CIMB is among the first banks to leverage blockchain technology in an area where payments are notoriously inefficient and slow.

Also Rooting for XRP

The reasons why members of the XRP community are convinced that XRP should be the base on Binance is that it is now a base on the XRP United Exchange and also on the CoinField Exchange.

Weiss Ratings, which is among the largest rating companies, Tweeted back in August that they also agree that XRP should be the base.
