Binance Could Add XRP As A Base Pair

By Kapil Gauhar

In the present, there is a $3 billion gap between ETH and XRP in the market cap. It has prompted Ripple supporters to ask binance as well as other leading crypto exchanges for adding XRP as a base pair. It is a move which they believe will reduce the cryptocurrency community credence on the price of BTC and ETH. In addition, it will also make the exchange of digital currencies much faster and easier.

In a tweet that is addressed to Binance cryptocurrency exchange, one Twitter use by the name C3jNik asked why the second biggest crypto asset, by the market capitalization, was not being provided as a trading pair on the platform.

Adding that there were the excellent opportunities for the exchange to offer more value to their customers than ever.

Weiss Ratings was of the similar opinion also tweeting –

“What’s it gonna take for #XRP to decouple from #BTC? Simple: XRP-based trading pairs. The sooner we add more diversity to the crypto space, the safer we’ll all be. #Bitcoin shouldn’t dictate the outcome of every single project in this industry. #Binance, are you listening?”

Though, the push and call for XRP as a base pair on Binance exchange didn’t start a day earlier. The supporters of XRP started requesting the addition in August 2018.

But, Binance, as well as its CEO, has been mum on the issue until yesterday when Changpeng Zhao took to Twitter for saying that community pressure for adding XRP was getting to him.

He said in a tweet –

“The XRP base shill is strong. Let’s get it out of your system, and put all your shills under this one tweet, and let’s see how much we get.”

Now it is the matter of time before everyone sees XRP being offered as a trading pair on Binance and other exchanges.
