CMC welcomes Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and XRP to its platform

Litecoin Bitcoin Cash XRP

CMC Markets, a trading company based in Queens Land (UK) has announced to add three new cryptocurrencies Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash and XRP respectively to its platform. The firm offers a wide variety of opportunities for its users. More than three hundred global currencies, classic commodities such as oil gold, and silver, company shares, treasury notes, gilts, and bonds. They basically offer all kinds of traditional financial instruments, even spread bets.

Last March, CMC added Bitcoin and Ethereum to the mix of products they offer and, now, they decided to support three new virtual currencies in their platform (as noted above): Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and XRP.

Mr. David Fineberg who happens to be the Director of Group Commercial for CMC, has this to say about the company’s new move:

“Since the successful launch of our cryptocurrency offering in March, and subsequent extension to retail clients in July, our clients have expressed interest in extending their trading options beyond bitcoin and ethereum. We are pleased to offer them the chance to take a position on bitcoin cash, litecoin and ripple, three altcoins which continue to generate much speculation among traders.”

Fineberg also added,

“Spread bets and CFDs offer a way to trade on cryptocurrencies as clients can take a position on market movements without owning the asset. By trading with an established provider, funds can be deposited and withdrawn with ease, avoiding the risks of purchasing cryptocurrencies directly through an exchange. However, like all other financial instruments we offer, we always recommend clients understand the risks and conduct thorough research before trading.”

This news is very important because we’re not talking about a crypto exchange at all, but about a traditional financial company that is adopting digital assets and bringing them into the mainstream. CMC’s clients are not crypto enthusiasts but people who try to make money using the company’s web platform through financial resources, instruments, and tools that are very old.

The company’s latest decision is part of its new approach to be innovative.

For instance, last June CMC trained Alexa to give its clients the latest financial news. headlines, articles, relevant tweets and market data. It’s the first provider in the market that has made on-demand insights in this particular way. The magic words are “Alexa, open CMC markets.”

A month later it brought crypto spread betting to its platform and they are now increasing the number of crypto coins they offer to their clients.

CMC is a company that seeks to empower traditional investors through the use of technology, and they’ve seen the writing on the wall: Crypto is the next wave. Because they are very keen on technological advances, including some of the most interesting digital assets in the world was, probably, an easy decision for them.

The company’s position on technology was also clarified by Mr. Fineberg:

“At CMC Markets we recognize the power of technology, so we continue to invest in a range of services to be a leader in this space. This is why we have taken proactive steps to ensure that we are the first trading company to fully utilize the potential of this software”

David Fineberg concluded saying,

“We are excited by how traders are engaging in the digital age, and the CMC Markets Skill we have developed is part of our ongoing strategy to enhance the overall experience of our clients by providing them with the information they need, when they need it.”

BNB Price Surges Past $300, Faces Crucial $339 Hurdle: What’s Next?

By

BNB price has noted significant gains over the past few days, surging past the psychological resistance of $300. The native cryptocurrency of the Binance Exchange has surpassed Solana to regain its position as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. The digital currency has been rallying lately with a 7-day profit of more than 15%. Additionally, BNB has clocked a phenomenal gain of 38% in the month to date.

Binance Coin Outlook

BNB price has been on a strong bull run for the past week, breaking out of its consolidation. Even so, the asset has experienced a correction in its uptrend over the past 24 hours but remains above the crucial level of $300. BNB’s total market cap has decreased by 4% over the past day to $48 billion, while the total volume of the asset traded over the same period dipped by about 15%.

Over the past year, Binance Coin has had to cope with Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)  on the back of the regulatory troubles of its underlying exchange. Earlier, the BNB price touched a low of $223.50, a few days after its former CEO, Changpeng Zhao, pleaded guilty to money laundering charges. However, the cryptocurrency has managed to rebound 46% in value since then.

The recent price rally has been associated with various positive developments in the Binance ecosystem, including the Introduction of the Isolated Margin Auto-Transfer Mode. This feature enables…

Solana Price Surges Beyond $100, Dethroning Ripple and BNB To Secure Fourth Place

By

Solana price performance in recent times has been remarkable, surpassing Ripple and Binance Coin to become the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. The SOL price breached the critical level of $100 for the first time since April 2022 over the weekend to imbue optimism among investors. However, the altcoin has corrected by 7%, suggesting that the market is overheated. At the time of writing, the ‘Ethereum killer’ was trading slightly lower at $111.60.

SOL Outlook

Solana price has made a significant recovery over the past few weeks, climbing above the psychological level of $100. The altcoin has been one of the best-performing assets this year, extending its year-to-date gains to more than 1,025%, with more gains recorded in the past month alone. However, even with such growth, analysts have noted that Solana has a bleak chance of topping its ATH of $260.

The reason behind this is the increase in supply relative to its value. In November 2021, when the Solana price hit its all-time high of $260, its total market capitalization was around $78 billion. Despite the value of the crypto asset being less than half of what it was at the top, its market cap is currently hovering near $50 billion.

This has been brought about by the increase in the Solana supply by more than 100 million SOL over the past two years. According to some analysts, for the altcoin to retest $260, its…

Solana price has noted significant gains over the past few weeks, climbing to its highest level since April 2022. The ‘Ethereum Killer’ almost topped the crucial level of $100 on Friday, before pulling back slightly. The asset’s recent surge has catapulted Solana’s total market cap to $39.6 billion, ranking 5th after and above BNB and XRP, respectively. Solana has jumped by more than 22% in the past week and more than 80% in the month to date. At the time of writing, SOL price was trading 0.90% lower at $93.10.

Catalysts Behind SOL’s Rally

Solana price has been on a strong bull run over the past few days, rocketing to its highest level in 20 months as the network benefits from the substantial activity and strong interest in memecoins. The SOL token, the native digital asset of the high-performance blockchain platform Solana, has shown some serious strength over the past few weeks, outperforming all the altcoins in the market.

The recent surge in the Solana price has been linked to heightened on-chain activities on the Solana blockchain. Notably, the ongoing hype for the blockchain’s speedy transactions, cheap fees, and a lottery of meme coin issuances has buoyed SOL’s on-chain activity. Metrics have revealed that Solana has been the strongest draw among on-chain traders, with trading volumes and network fees outperforming Ethereum- the largest altcoin by market cap.
