Exchanges news

FTX.US, a US-regulated cryptocurrency exchange and the American subsidiary of global FTX International, announced the acquisition of Ledger Holdings Inc., the parent company of LedgerX LLC, a US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)-regulated digital currency futures and options exchange and clearinghouse. The deal’s financial specifics have not been published. If the purchase is completed, which could occur as early as October, FTX.US will be able to offer US clients a differentiated product offering from industry heavyweights such as Coinbase, Kraken, or Gemini, Forbes stated. Brett Harrison, CEO of FTX.US, noted that while the firm intends to unify the two operations‘ product offerings in the future, it would be selective in terms of the clients who can trade these products, wishing to convey a sense of seriousness and avoid promoting a ‚gamified‘ experience.

Coinbase said that they are employing developers to work on projects that have the potential to grow blockchains by several orders of magnitude in order to accomplish the exchange’s goal of billions of customers globally. The Coinbase Protocol team is comprised of engineers that will be responsible for 1) contributing to open source projects, 2) incorporating cutting-edge technology into Coinbase products, and 3) assisting developers through Coinbase’s grant programs.

Swyftx’s customer base increased by 1,659 percent in 2021, adding up to 8,000 new users each day to its platform, which currently serves about 350,000 consumers across Australia.

Blockchain.com reported that they have transacted over USD 1 trillion in cryptocurrency, adding that they have „managed approximately a third of all Bitcoin network transactions since 2012, with the majority of transactions conducted through Blockchain.com Wallets occurring in the last two years.“ Three primary factors have fueled the platform’s growth in recent years: 1) having over 76 million active wallets in retail; 2) experiencing exponential development in their institutional market business; and 3) experiencing continuous growth in their brokerage and exchange business.
