XRP to be listed on TokenPay’s upcoming exchange eFin from the get-go

A couple of days ago, eFin tweeted from its official Twitter handler that XRP was added to their platform. The exchange is going to start its operations by next month, and this listing could be quite substantial for XRP. We’ve reasons to back our words.

Very few blockchain projects in the cryptosphere are as complex and extensive as TokenPay. It has fingers in a lot of pies, and it even has its own cryptocurrency called TokenPay (TPAY) which is not that impressive by market capitalization standards ( roughly 15 million, in total) and holds the 173rd place.

And yet, it’s one of the very few coins that have been trading in green numbers in the last couple of days, which is quite impressive for days in which all the top 14 currencies kept trading in the red zone (yes, they are in the green today).

Why this new exchange listing XRP is special?

TokenPay defines itself as a “decentralized self-verifying merchant payment platform” based entirely on mathematics and designed to enable secure transactions between multiple parties.

The statement is deceptively simple. It’s a whole ecosystem of financial services in and out of the cryptosphere with links and associations with many crypto projects as well as traditional financial institutions (read banks).

And now, the project is baking a brand new pie where it can put yet another finger. It’s going to be online next December 19th. It’s called eFin, and it will be a brand new cryptocurrency exchange by all possible standards. And as noted in the start, it’s going to list XRP right from the beginning.

The new exchange answers to TokenPay’s mission to keep meeting the needs of merchants and consumers, and it will be an integral part of the wide company’s ecosystem.

eFin will be a secure, non-custodial, unhackable, private, and, most importantly, decentralized exchange. The decentralized bit is particularly relevant because it will be the first decentralized cryptocurrency exchange in history.

It will enable users to tackle real-time, large-scale, crypto to fiat conversions for the whole TokenPay ecosystem. That includes TokenSuisse and Germany’s AG Bank. It will support quicker and easy TPAY, LTC, and XVG  conversions to mBTC that you can use on CryptoBet, Esports.io, and TokenGaming.

So why is it so important to finally have a decentralized exchange? Security. Currently available exchanges are centralized, of course. It means that their security is only as good as their security team, and many of them have already had serious problems with hackers. In that regard, they’re no different than any normal website in the world. A decentralized website (for crypto exchange in this case) that works on a good blockchain, can’t be hacked.

It’s doesn’t depend on how good your digital security personnel is, it’s that good a blockchain just can’t be hacked at all. Yes, we know that Verged was hacked three times already this year, that’s why we included the adjective “good”.

Bitcoin, XRP, Tron, Litecoin, Ethereum have never been hacked once. An extra advantage regarding security is that being a non-custodial exchange; it won’t hold your coins. They will always be with you, so even if it could be hacked (which it won’t), hackers would find nothing to steal because there are no tokens there.

And this very advanced and innovative exchange is going to list XRP (alongside Litecoin and Verge) from the very beginning. The choice makes sense because XRP is now the world’s second largest by market capitalization and it’s outperformed even Bitcoin concerning profitability during the last couple of years.

Many crypto observers now believe that it will become the next big cryptocurrency, with a real chance to outperform Bitcoin in every way in the not-so-far future.

The good news keeps popping up for Ripple’s XRP. Expect a bullish run.

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

December 29, 2023

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.
