Cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp has successfully resolved a temporary glitch that occurred in its XRP trading, which led to a significant price drop to $0.4587. The incident caused user frustration and problems with Dogecoin trading pairs on Tuesday.
The exchange's dedicated team was quick to respond, canceling all open orders on the affected markets due to the glitch. Users were subsequently requested to resubmit their orders.
The issue follows Bitstamp's decision to relist XRP in July, after Judge Analisa Torres declared the coin as a non-security. The relisting marked a significant milestone for the cryptocurrency, which had faced regulatory scrutiny over its status.
In addition to relisting XRP, Bitstamp introduced several new products focused on the digital asset. These include a 2% annual percentage yield (APY) on XRP lending and an increase in lending yield to 30 days. The move is part of Bitstamp's ongoing efforts to provide diverse and flexible investment opportunities for its users.
The recent events highlight the dynamic nature of the cryptocurrency market and the ongoing efforts by exchanges like Bitstamp to adapt and provide robust services for their users.
