Crypto Exchange CoinField Launches XRP Validator, Teases New Ecosystem

Published at: Oct. 7, 2019

Cryptocurrency exchange CoinField has launched an XRP validator which is already included in Ripple’s Unique Node List (UNL).

According to a news release published on Oct. 2, “UNLs are the lists of transaction validators a given participant believes will not conspire to defraud them.” 

The exchange’s team has also reportedly been working on a new project based on XRP’s ledger (XRPL) for half a year. CoinField promises to release the details of it on Oct. 15.

The platform’s CEO Bob Ras added:

“This new ecosystem is the most sophisticated project ever built on top of XRPL, and it is the best use case for that. We believe this will be a big step forward for the whole industry and the mass adoption of XRP blockchain.”

A project shrouded in mystery

CoinField will also officially present the details of the new ecosystem at the Malta A.I. and Blockchain Summit on Nov. 8. Previously, Ras teased the project in a cryptic tweet:

“We have a great team of advisors in our upcoming #XRPL project. All well-known figures in #cryptocurrency space. I'll be thrilled to announce the names & the details of the project very soon. This will be a game-changer!

As Cointelegraph reported on Oct. 6, Samsung Pay, the mobile payments service of the South Korean tech giant, has partnered with payments platform Finablr, Ripple’s RippleNet member, to offer cross-border payments feature Money Transfer to its app’s users.

When an asset is in an overbought condition and traders are sitting on large profits, even minor negative news and events could trigger profit-booking. This seems to have happened following Janet Yellen’s adverse comments on cryptocurrencies during a virtual hearing with the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. In the same meeting, Yellen also told Congress to “act big” in order to support the U.S. economy. Another round of stimulus would probably further weaken the U.S. dollar and drive investors into assets that are considered as a store of value. This means Yellen's comments may have inadvertently boosted the sentiment surrounding gold …

The top 100 richest Bitcoin (BTC) addresses have added 334,000 Bitcoin to their existing holdings over the past 30 days, a clear signal that whales and institutional-size investors bought the dip. A positive sign is that most of them have not reacted to the recent fall in Bitcoin’s price. This suggests that large investors are bullish on Bitcoin for the long term rather than looking to make a quick gain. An important element in the recent rally is many of the purchases have come from institutional investors who were critical of Bitcoin in the past. The list is likely to …

Altcoins and stocks move higher after Bitcoin price rally to $40,000
The price of Bitcoin (BTC) hit a new all-time high above $40,000 on Jan. 7 after the price increased by more than $5,000 in less than 24-hours. The $40,000 barrier marks a significant milestone for the top-ranked cryptocurrency. According to Matt Blom, head of global sales trading at EQUOS: “Bitcoin's march to $40k has been driven by fresh capital from huge hedge funds, corporate treasuries and awareness from the investing public that all is not well in the world of fiat. It’s easy to forget that we are still in the very early stages of adoption." Blom added that instead …

$420M in leveraged long traders liquidated after XRP rallies to $1.96
XRP holders couldn’t have asked for a better year as the cryptocurrency rallied almost 800% and flirted with a $2 level in the early hours of Wednesday. In addition to achieving its highest level since January 2018, this robust price increase signals that investors are not worried about the ongoing SEC “unregistered securities offering” dispute. However, just six hours after rallying to $1.96, XRP’s price crashed by more than 20%. During an interview, DCG Group CEO Barry Silbert said it would be risky for exchanges and companies in the United States to relist XRP ahead of receiving the United States …
