XRP Relisted on Top Exchange After 22 Months Hiatus

Another win for the XRP ecosystem is being celebrated as the coin, which is closely affiliated with crypto payment company Ripple Labs Inc, has been relisted on the top cryptocurrency exchange CEX.IO after almost two years of taking a break.

Celebrating Multiple Relisting

The news was made public on Wednesday by the crypto firm emphasizing that the relisting was directed toward satisfying its United States customers. 

“Enjoy complete Buy, Sell, Convert, Deposit, and Withdrawal services for Ripple (XRP) across our product ecosystem,” CEX.IO posted on the X app.

Relisting XRP has been the trend amongst many cryptocurrency exchanges, especially those who removed the coin from their platform at the sign of “trouble.” In mid-July, Coinbase, Gemini, Kraken, Binance.US, and Crypto.com relisted XRP after Ripple bagged a partial victory in its lawsuit with the SEC.

While relisting the coin, Binance.US acknowledged the outstanding capacity of XRP, citing that it aims to “facilitate fast and low-friction value transfers, providing institutions with a solution for cross-border transactions.”

XRP is recognized for some of its core features including its potential to facilitate cross-border settlements more cheaply. This capability has made it the top choice for many projects and protocols. Consequently, this has triggered the XRP price to significant levels. At the time of this writing, XRP was trading at $0.6379.

Prior Justification for Delisting XRP

Since XRP’s major comeback as a result of Judge Analisa Torres’ ruling that the coin is not securities as touted by the SEC, there have been some outstanding achievements in the ecosystem. Many protocols and exchanges delisted the XRP token in 2021 following the enforcement action brought against it by the U.S. regulator in December 2020. 

American cryptocurrency exchanges Coinbase and Kraken were some of the firms that delisted the coin immediately after the U.S. SEC announced its legal actions against Ripple and its executives Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen. Newton, a Canadian digital asset exchange also made similar changes to its crypto list, leaving XRP out.

A number of these crypto-inclined companies cited regulatory and legal concerns as the reasons behind the delisting move. However, the July 13th ruling has been pivotal to the trajectory of the Ripple-affiliated currency in recent months.

  • Russia Develops 150nm Lithography Machine, Performance Comparable to Pentium 4 from 20 Years Ago

    On July 22, according to Fast Technology, Russia's Green City Nanotechnology Center (ZNTC) has successfully developed a prototype of an electron beam lithography machine (ELL) with a design standard of 150nm. The project is a key research and development task under the framework of Russia's national plan for scientific and technological development, codenamed Progress ELL 150. This device is mainly used for manufacturing photomasks, and can also directly draw circuit patterns on substrates without using masks. The 150nm process roughly corresponds to the performance level of Intel's Pentium 4 from 20 years ago. In 2025, ZNTC demonstrated a similar device with 350nm resolution, and has now advanced to 90nm and 130nm technology nodes. Industry experts point out that such equipment is only suitable for small batch production of specialized chips in fields such as aerospace and defense.
