Bithumb Global Will List eGLD! Trading Starts in September

https://bithumb.pro

We’re excited to announce that our token will be listed on Bithumb Global! The international exchange will support the Elrond mainnet token swap and list eGLD for trading in September, for eGLD/BTC and eGLD/USDT pairs.

The web interface at https://bithumb.pro is available in 8 different languages, allows the purchasing of cryptocurrency directly with 35 different currencies, which are served by 30 different payment processors.

Bithumb Global is the international arm of Korea’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. It is powered by the same robust exchange engine, intuitive interface, and outstanding user experience.

This new exchange listing is important for the Elrond ecosystem because it adds a large amount of fiat onramp options, such as via the African M-Pesa, and direct exposure to multiple localized communities at the same time.
