eGold Lists On Japanese-Regulated Exchange & Fiat Onramp Liquid

We’re excited to announce that eGold is now listed on Liquid! Liquid is a cryptocurrency exchange operating out of Japan and Singapore, and one of the largest by fiat volume. Its Japanese branch is licensed & regulated by the Japan Financial Services Agency.

eGold will list on liquid.com on October 12 15:00 UTC and will be available for purchase using USD, JPY, EUR, SGD, HKD, and AUD, as well as for trading against USDT and BTC pairs.

Through the new listing, we leverage Liquid’s ability of onboarding multiple fiat currencies from most countries around the world, and will accelerate the Elrond ecosystem growth by reducing onboarding frictions for new fiat customers.
