Finally Bitcoin (BTC) made it past the major $8,000. Very different from previous events, altcoins failed to follow the leader and were unable to break important resistance. For example Ethereum‘s ETH still struggling to go over the $500.00. However, one game changer is on the right path to push other altcoins as it seems as well.
Stellar Lumens XLMThe 6th largest cryptocoin by market capitalization is welcoming a very beautiful day on the 26th of July. The pair XLM/USD is changing hands at $0.3369 with 12.27% increase in the last 24h. The token has almost doubled its price since July 12 when it was trading at $0.18. 70% in two weeks.
The recent hoist could be caused by Huobi – the 3rd largest crypto-exchange. The platform has listed Stellar Lumens token XLM as a trading option. It was let known by a press-release on July 25. XLM can be paired with ETH and BTC on the platform.
“Stellar (XLM) will be launched on Huobi Global on July 25, 2018 (GMT+8). Deposits will be available from 16:30, July 25, 2018 (GMT+8). XLM/BTC and XLM/ETH trading will be available at New Zone from 16:00, July 26, 2018 (GMT+8). Withdrawals will be available from 16:30, July 28, 2018 (GMT+8),” the official announcement reads.
XLM – XRP – CoinbaseVery similar to how things are looking really good for XLM price-wise, it experienced positive development in other sectors recently. With Coinbase announcing that it will explore XLM and other coins as options to be added, the first-row competitor against Stellar – XRP did not take it that well.
Today we are announcing that we’re exploring the addition of the following assets to Coinbase: Cardano (ADA), Basic Attention Token (BAT), Stellar Lumens (XLM), Zcash (ZEC) and 0x (ZRX). https://t.co/qoECyR0V1f
