Ripple (XRP) Might Get On Coinbase, As The Renowned Cryptocurrency Exchange Plan On Moving To Japan

According to news releases this morning, Coinbase, the cryptocurrencies market leader in cryptocurrency exchange platform, will relocate to Japan to commence expanded activities in the Asian country. Naturally, Japan is widely regarded as the homeland of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, mostly via the huge volume of investors and crypto enthusiasts living in Japan. Even though this information is not unexpected, a sudden move like this one would have huge repercussions for most of the cryptocurrencies communities. Even more, Ripple (XRP) might indeed reach Coinbase thanks to this move.

Like we are aware already, cryptocurrency exchange platforms operating on the Japanese territory must be licensed and obey a series of crypto regulations designed to protect security and integrity of both cryptocurrencies and investors. Thus, the Japanese regulations are not at all created to hinder the operations of cryptocurrency exchange platforms.

Thus, before moving its activity on Japanese soil, Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange must work to obtain a valid license and once it has been acquired Coinbase operations must comply with the Japanese crypto regulations.

Ripple (XRP) might eventually get on Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange, as the latter plans on moving to Japan

This recent news that Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange will move to Japan has ignited many speculations. Among them, however, one is quite plausible, namely, Ripple (XRP) might now get on Coinbase.

Above all, Ripple (XRP) is a very appreciated coin in Japan where it is, at the same time, the most used cryptocurrency, therefore, would be a smart move from Coinbase to list XRP, as soon as it moves its operations on Japanese soil.

From Ripple’s point of view, however, Ripple (XRP) addition on Coinbase would significantly surge XRP’s price against the USD, as well as its adoption. In the meantime, Ripple (XRP) won’t get on Coinbase as long as Coinbase keeps its business in the US and XRP is considered a security by the US regulators.

Therefore, as soon as Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange moves its operations to Japan, Ripple (XRP), the most used crypto coin on Japanese territory, might be listed.

The platform will start trading with the 20,000 customers who registered in October last year, who will be able to trade with Ripple (XRP) in exchange for JPY in VCTRADE.

The company plans to extend its services to more customers from July and include other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) or Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

According to the statement, the company completed the registration and fees required to operate this type of business on Japanese territory since September 2017 and has since worked to prepare for the launch of VCTRADE.

In October 2017, SBI Holdings allowed customers interested in crypto trading to register and, not surprisingly, more than 20,000 applications have been submitted.

In addition, also in early March, the bank has canceled its collaboration with the Chinese startup Huobi, which, at first, announced they’d support SBI in launching its SBI Virtual Currencies.

On the other hand, SBI has been working with Ripple (XRP) since January 2016 to meet the growing demand for cryptocurrencies market services in Asia and put the basis a new company called SBI Ripple Asia which operates in Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea and the countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

iPhone 9 Leak – How Will The New Phone Look Like?

If you’re an Apple fan, then you’ll definitely want to know how the rumored iPhone 9 looks like. We know by now that Apple is expected to launch three new smartphones this fall and some details about them have just been revealed recently.

A few render images are now available, so you can finally have an idea about how the unofficial phones will look like. We can now take a look at iPhone X2, the 6.5-inch iPhone X2 Plus, which is believed to be the biggest Apple smartphone so far and the cheaper iPhone X LCD model.

From what we could see by now, all three phones are inspired by the design of iPhone X, along with the notch at the top of the screen and the Face ID feature. However, keep in mind that these are rendered images and the final products might not match what we can see now. The cheapest model, the 6.1-inch iPhone could be the one that will vary the most compared to the pictured device, since it is believed that it will come equipped with a LCD display, and not OLED. This could also mean that the phone might have a bigger bottom bezel.

Also, according to the pictures we can see, the iPhone X Plus could be just as big as the Galaxy Note and the iPhone 8.

But how many of these rumors are true? We cannot know yet. There has been a large number of contradictory leaks circulating the internet lately. Some said that all three phones will have OLED screens, denying the cheaper LCD model. Others talked about a triple camera setup on the rear of the handsets, even though the new renders showed a single camera on the cheaper iPhone and dual snappers on the other two iPhones.

All in all, we’ll just have to wait until more details are announced about the upcoming smartphones.
