Nasdaq’s CEO says, it is open to becoming cryptocurrency exchange.
The company’s CEO Adena Friedman says.," Once the regulation is smoothed out Nasdaq would consider becoming digital currency exchange.
The company announced a collaboration with cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, founded by early bitcoin investors Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss. The deal gives Gemini access to Nasdaq's surveillance technology to help make sure the platform provides a fair and "rules-based marketplace," for their own participants, Gemini CEO Tyler Winklevoss said in a statement.
According to some news reports, Nasdaq is supposedly backing up the aforementioned currencies with a popular partner, the Gemini exchange which is the first in the country to be completely licensed exchange platform. Their partnership looks at allowing Gemini to use Nasdaq’s tools and technologies to monitor real-time trade activities and augment security.
My friends...
As my point of view , we the people who believe in good crypto coins like STEEM, BITCOIN etc. are about to see the " glorious moonlight night " with the Steem shine.
The plans to develop the crypto platform are underway, as the high-profile CEO, Adena Friedman confirmed, whereas no timelines have been released to date. This could raise the bar and change the entire crypto-sphere in a highly positive way.
This type of forward thinking by NASDAQ will give it a leg up in trading volume versus its global competitors.
Though the timing of this initiative remains a question mark it is clear that NASDAQ is fully committed to the crypto movement.
Have a good life friends. My good wishes are always with you dears. love you and Steemit.
