Currency.com to credit $50 to Bittrex traders barred from service

The tokenized-asset exchange Currency.com will credit $50 to traders with whom the U.S. crypto exchange Bittrex is terminating operations. Currency.com representatives told ForkLog.

On September 11, Bittrex announced the cessation of service for users in Ukraine, Belarus, Burundi, Mali, Myanmar, Nicaragua and Panama. Users from these jurisdictions must withdraw their funds from the exchange by September 24. Bittrex attributed its decision to regulatory reasons.

Currency.com offers $50 to traders from these jurisdictions. To receive the bonus, you need to register on the crypto exchange and send the code word BITTREX to support@currency.com.

Users will be able to withdraw the bonus after paying $50 in fees. The promotion will run through the end of September.

“Regulation of the crypto industry is forcing exchanges to impose restrictions for some jurisdictions. Their clients must seek other service providers with a good reputation and high security. We are confident that we can offer users excellent service. Currency.com supports not only popular cryptocurrencies but 1500 tokenized assets: oil, gold, indices, stocks of global and Russian companies,” said representatives of the crypto exchange.

Currency.com is a platform for trading cryptocurrencies and tokenized assets based in the Belarusian Hi-Tech Park. The exchange’s offices are located in London, Minsk and Gibraltar.

In July 2020 Currency Com Limited received a DLT license from the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission.
