TORONTO-(BUSINESS WIRE)- Vandaag heeft Coinsquare, Canada’s belangrijkste cryptocurrency trading platform voor de handel in Bitcoin, Ethereum en andere cryptocurrencies, aangekondigd dat het StellarX heeft overgenomen.
De overname van StellarX komt vlak na de overname van BlockEQ, die zal worden omgedoopt tot de ankerportefeuille voor het StellarX platform.
“Wij zijn vastbesloten om ervoor te zorgen dat de cryptocurrency markt gedijt, en adoptie is de sleutel”, aldus Cole Diamond, CEO van Coinsquare. “Stellar is het snelste betaalnetwerk ter wereld en we zien een enorm potentieel voor het creëren van toonaangevende diensten op StellarX om de adoptie verder uit te breiden”, aldus Cole Diamond, CEO van Coinsquare.
Coinsquare Acquires StellarX, a Global Decentralized Crypto Platform
The acquisition adds a peer-to-peer wallet with global fiat gateways to Coinsquare’s ecosystem
TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Today Coinsquare, Canada’s premier cryptocurrency trading platform for trading Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies, announced it has acquired StellarX.
The acquisition of StellarX comes on the heels of Coinsquare’s December 2018 acquisition of BlockEQ, which will be rebranded to become the anchor wallet for the StellarX platform.
“We are deeply committed to ensuring that the cryptocurrency market thrives, and adoption is key”, said Cole Diamond, CEO of Coinsquare. “Stellar is the fastest payment network in the world and we see enormous potential to create industry leading services on StellarX to further broader adoption”.
StellarX is the first full-featured trading app for Stellar’s universal marketplace. It operates as a true decentralized exchange, meaning users retain sole custody of their funds, trades are executed against other users, and StellarX has no access to funds.
Megha Bambra, BlockEQ cofounder, will now lead StellarX. Megha and her new team of Toronto-based developers will continue to build out the product roadmap announced by Stellar last fall. As part of the acquisition, StellarX will continue to operate and grow under its own brand.
StellarX will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Coinsquare, based in Bermuda and will look to apply with the regulators there to become licensed to operate and scale its offering under Coinsquare’s compliance leadership.
