Designed in 2012 to ease bank-to-bank transfers, Ripple now has the biggest market cap of any non-bitcoin cryptocurrency, and there’s still one obvious thing holding back its potential: It’s not yet on Coinbase, the world’s most popular cryptocurrency exchange.
In the last few days we have seen how the value of ripple has increased significantly, given that it is rumored that it could enter coinbase, a rumor that if true could increase even more.
The recent rumor indicates that XRP could enter Coinbase, one of the main exchange houses in South Korea, specifically the information we have indicates that it could enter later this month of January. This is a strong rumor that has been circulating on the network for several days, but that has increased, related to a video that circulates on the network, posted on YouTube, where you can see a user operating in this exchange house and where it appears Ripple. Logically no one knows where the video came from and it could be perfectly a manipulation or perhaps the test of the new functions.
Adding ripple to coinbase would make it much easier for more casual crypto users to have access to their XRP tokens, which are now available in less friendly exchanges.
