Three of the top exchanges in the crypto industry have announced that they will be launching several new crypto trading pairs. These three exchanges are Bittrex, KuCoin, and HitBTC. They made the announcement on Twitter from their official handles.
The trading pairs that have been announced include USD pairs, and support for Decred (DCR) and EOS.
Bittrex have some really pleasant news for all users of Tron (TRX) and Litecoin (LTC). They have announced that they will now allow and support trades directly between USD and the digital currencies mentioned above. The process before required the users to go through Bitcoin in order to trade TRX and LTC but they no longer have to do that.
We’re rolling out more USD pairs. On Sep 17 we’re launching US dollar (USD) markets for TRON (TRX) and Litecoin (LTC). Eligible #Bittrex accounts created before Sep 4 are already enabled for USD trading. New user or want to deposit/withdraw USD? Details: https://t.co/KA248OA2Bz pic.twitter.com/21xA8xZ4vm

KuCoin’s tweet announced to the world that they are launching Decred (DCR) support. The platform will now offer the options to buy and sell and is currently allowing trade between Decred and Bitcoin, also Decred and Ether.

HitBTC has extended their support for EOS and can now be traded against XRP, LTC, Monero (XMR), DASH, and ByteCoin (BCN).These additional trading pairs that have been announced have come as a great news of relief for lots of altcoin supporters, who have been demanding them for a long time now. Bitcoin has always played the middleman when it came to buying or selling of assest but now due to direct trade, bitcoin’s role may be reduced. This could hurt the market price of bitcoin greatly but we will have to wait and see. These new additions by some of the most credible exchanges might go a long way to appease the altcoin supporters.
