Huobi Group Wants to Become “The World’s Largest Cryptocurrency Exchange by Volume”

In a recent interview with Blokt, Huobi Group Vice President Livio Weng expressed big plans for Huobi. “We want to be the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume and to expand our global network of blockchain-related projects and businesses even further,” he declared.

The listing of Nano is just one small step toward these goals.

Nano is Making Waves

Nano has gained some attention within the cryptocurrency community for its ability to deliver on its scalability promises. Formerly known as RaiBlocks, the platform got a makeover and a new name at the end of January 2018. All of its 133 million coins are currently in circulation.

The network uses a unique algorithm that makes its speed and fee-less transactions possible. ”With Nano, each account has their own blockchain as part of a larger directed acyclic graph,” the project’s website explains.

“Each individual user provides the computational power for the verification of their own transactions, meaning the entire network is not required to update the overall ledger together in a massive bloc.”

The network beat XRP and Stellar in a Binance deposit speed test conducted by Bitcoinkit.com in October. Nano was designed to be capable of processing transactions immediately and with no fees.
