A monthly Wootrade roundup: December 2020
Along with the recent Bitcoin all-time high, the last month of 2020 brought Wootrade several strategic collaborations, solid community growth, the highest daily trading volume, and new achievements in product development.
The Wootrade network celebrated a new record on December 18, when the daily trading volume surged to $73 million breaking the last month’s record with a 170% increase. This follows a productive end of month push from the BD team, as more clients were onboarded to the network.
Wootrade transparency is being enhanced with oracle technology. We announced the collaboration with Chainlink. Wootrade’s clients and users will soon be able to use Chainlink to cryptographically verify their transaction histories. In the future, a trader’s track record and trading strategies can be tokenized via synthetic assets, providing investors with a more diversified way to invest in cryptocurrencies.
The oracle technology in blockchain was explained in the very first article of Wootrade’s education series.
