- EOS/USD is rangebound ahead of the New Year.
Huobi Pool, a branch of the third largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volumes, announced its plans to launch EOS-focused trading platform in the first quarter of 2019.
According to the official press release, the new platform will have EOS traded against various cryptocurrency assets. The company has been working with the EOS community and built an EOS test chain in collaboration with EOS block producers. That's the place where teams can test their EOS-based projects to see if everything goes as planned. Apart from that, Huobi Pool has created a voting platform for EOS holders.
"As an EOS supernode, Huobi Pool has placed its ecological development high on its list of priorities. Launching this EOS exchange is simply the next logical step in our support," Cao Fei, Huobi Pool's CEO commented in the press release.
Earlier we reported that Huobi derivative market added support for EOS, which means that the customers of the exchange now can either long or short their positions on EOS.
