Binance to Launch Combined Stablecoin Trading Platform

Binance, the largest crypto trader on the planet is set to release a combined market for stablecoins. This is great news for stablecoin enthusiasts not just because Tether (USDT), the most popular stablecoin is rumored to be part of the mix, but also because the sector is set to receive a lot of great publicity because of Binance’s actions – as it stands, the exchange does close to double the 24-hour volume of its nearest competitor, which makes a very great ambassador for all things crypto.

The so-called stablecoins have been all the buzz lately simply because they are pegged to solid assets such as the USD and they are growing even more popular as a number of reputable platforms have begun taking them more seriously. Tether (USDT), as mentioned earlier, is the most popular but its popularity tends to lean more towards the controversy that surrounds it.

Why Are Stablecoins Becoming Such a Big Deal?

Well, stablecoins operate based on a pretty simple mechanism, that is, a management team stores money on a bank account and this amount forms the basis of the coins that the management team of a stablecoin provider sells to its users. In essence, the system is entirely dependent on trust from its users. By trusting coin platforms, the users also have a great deal to benefit from with one of the most notable ones being the fact that they will never need to go through the lengthy processes of depositing funds from crypto exchanges back to their bank accounts anymore.

Stablecoins also allow their users to store funds in USD-denominated coins when not trading is going on hence their name. Other than Tether, there are a number of other dollar-pegged stablecoins on the market. However, even combined they are still not capable of covering the whole market once they pick up the pace of their growth. Other popular stablecoins include USD Coin and Paxos Standard. Binance believes that more stablecoins will appear from other platforms in the near future with some even being pegged to non-USD fiat currencies such as the Euro or Sterling Pounds.

Binance’s Plans

In its new joint stablecoin market venture, Binance has plans to launch a platform and there are very strong indications that Tether (USDT) will be one of them. The company further plans to change its ticker to USDⓈ with the S symbol in a circle representing specifically stablecoins on the platform.

The cryptocurrency exchange is currently actively preparing for a stable market for the new stablecoins – in fact, it appears that the company already has a solid operational scheme or plan for the period when the assets eventually begin to flood the market. This is very possible due to the very low lows that the crypto market has been dealing with lately.

“Over recent years, The Mermaid London’s position as a leading venue of choice for the FinTech industry has strengthened following a rise of new business wins, and we are excited to see how this event will continue to raise our profile within this growing sector,” Ayre said.

With just a few weeks left until the conference finally kicks offs, there has been an overwhelming number of attendance reservations especially from the enterprises who are looking to get into the crypto ecosystem.
