0x (ZRX) Keeps On Gaining – We Might See 0x (ZRX) On Coinbase’s Paradex Crypto Trading Platform

0x (ZRX) is one of the few cryptocurrencies that showed double-digit earnings during the last week. Even now, ZRX is not doing badly as it is still gaining, trading at $1.27, at the moment of this writing, increasing by about 3.5% in the last 24 hours. All the gains 0x (ZRX) recorded are due to the rumors about ZRX addition on either Coinbase or the Paradex crypto trading platform (which, since recently, is a Coinbase subsidiary).

As I’ve said, 0x (ZRX) is traded at $1.27 but, even though it is still gaining, ZRX “lived” its best day past Thursday when it traded upward and recorded a 12.5% increase breaking over the $1.30 level.

What is 0x (ZRX)?

0x (ZRX) is an open source platform designed to deliver decentralized exchange capabilities to ERC20 tokens around the world. The protocol is built on Ethereum (ETH) smart contracts and permits the functioning of decentralized crypto trading platforms.

The ERC20 crypto tokens developed on ETH network keep on expanding and increasing worldwide. The 0x team has proposed to build a platform to facilitate the trading of the ERC20 crypto tokens.

0x platform is neither a centralized nor a decentralized trading environment, however, it employs the best characteristics.

0x (ZRX) to be listed on Coinbase’s Paradex crypto trading platform

CNBC announced on May 23rd the acquisition of Paradex by Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange. Paradex is a trading system which has been specifically engineered to support the direct trading of digital assets.

Coinbase, on its part, stated that they will enhance the technology behind Paradex prior to its formal introduction. Paradex, eventually, will be made commercially available for several hundreds of cryptocurrencies but only for clients located outside the US.

Paradex offered 0x (ZRX) trading before being bought by Coinbase and it is quite possible to be also among the traded ERC20 crypto tokens on the updated crypto trading platform.

Also, if that’s the case, it is also very probable to see 0x (ZRX) on Coinbase, the most popular US-based cryptocurrency exchange.

Coinbase Cryptocurrency Exchange Acquires Paradex Cryptocurrencies Trading Platform

Coinbase, the renowned cryptocurrency exchange platform, has made another move to hold a larger share of the growing cryptocurrencies market. Accordingly, Coinbase acquires Paradex cryptocurrency trading platform.

Thus, it is righteous to think that the leading cryptocurrency exchange platform in the United States has acquired the Paradex cryptocurrency trading platform to gain a wider market share in cryptocurrency trading and spread its dominance in the cryptocurrencies market.

The amount paid by Coinbase for the acquisition of Paradex remains unknown, at this moment.

Coinbase acquired Paradex and will soon support a larger number of cryptocurrencies

Paradex permits its customers to trade currencies directly between themselves through the use of digital wallets, rather than via a centralized cryptocurrency exchange platform such as Coinbase, that keeps tokens in safekeeping on behalf of its clients..

At this moment, Coinbase is only offering operations in the four largest cryptocurrencies, namely Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

Additionally to these, Coinbase will take advantage of the Paradex platform which makes it easy to trade in hundreds of cryptocurrencies.

As a result of the acquisition, the number and types of cryptocurrencies that clients can exchange and trade with the Coinbase cryptocurrency exchange platform will expand substantially.

The purchase of Paradex is meant to help Coinbase attract more institutional investors

As we speak, Coinbase is the most popular and appreciated cryptocurrency exchange platform in the United States, as well as in other places in the world. However, Coinbase’s team wants more from the platform as to attract more institutional investors.

The acquisition of Paradex cryptocurrency trading platform might be a step forward in this direction as the Paradex platform is offering the possibility of trading in about a hundred cryptocurrencies and will now become, thanks to Coinbase, active on the US market which would’ve been an impossible task, otherwise, due to SEC regulations.
