Decred (DCR), a community-directed cryptocurrency designed to be a superior store of value, today announced it has been listed on crypto exchange, OKCoin — marking Decred’s first fiat-pairing in the U.S. where OKCoin is available in select states.
Starting today, March 13th, authorized OKCoin customers can deposit and withdraw Decred (DCR), and starting March 14th, they can trade against USD, BTC, and ETH.
Only a handful of altcoins, now including Decred, have secured fiat on-ramps for users within the United States.
“Our listing with OKCoin provides us with a significant fiat on-ramp, which offers greater access and ease-of-use to those looking to join the Decred community. We’re building Decred to last for generations to come, which means giving coin holders a true stake in where the currency goes. The more participation in Decred, the closer we come to the ideal of a decentralized future ruled by the collective intelligence of a broad and robust community.”
“Our listing of Decred aligns with our mission of making more digital assets accessible to the world. We are particularly impressed with Decred’s community-driven focus, as miners and non-miners alike are empowered to provide input, as well as vote on feature enhancements and recommendations for new tools. Decred’s approach fosters community growth, creating a project that is built to last.”
Decred launched in 2016 as a Bitcoin fork intended to address common concerns about blockchain governance, PoW consensus, and development funding.
