DCEX, the San Francisco-based platform that just opened registration for institutional and retail investors, will have Ripple (XRP) at its core. The platform was created by blockchain company AlphaPoin and will offer 15 different cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, EOS, IOTA, and ZCash. XRP would be its base currency, as DCEX believes that using XRP as its base allows for high-speed transfers that will help users on the platform take advantage of price inefficiencies.
