Bittrex’s Initial Exchange Offering-
On the other hand, yesterday, Bittrex had its second initial exchange offering. The first IEO was with VeriBlock (VBK.) Unfortunately, this project didn’t work up to the expectations. The recent VDX initial exchange offering had air dropped 7 million VDX tokens to the user base. As per the IEO rules, the maximum number of tokens per user was 120. The users were given a certain set of tasks to finish in order to receive the tokens. What made this IEO extra special was the fact that- it offered a good percent of tokens to its customers. As per reports, this IEO offered around sixty percent with 1 VDX. The rate of 1 VDX was 0.01 U.S Dollar. The users were allowed to invest in VDX with BTC only.

More on Bittrex-
Recently, the Bittrex Exchange transferred a good amount of XRP to Upbit’s Exchange. The amount was 6,999,999 XRP and was transferred on 18th May at 9:25 UTC. This transfer became news because of the fluctuations that the crypto coins have been facing lately. But amidst the turbulence, XRP still maintained an almost equilibrium since January. On the same day, the exchange did another transaction of 9,999,999 BTC to Upbit at 9:24 UTC, on 18th May 2019. This would roughly equate to 3,712,226 U.S Dollars.
This heavy transaction split the crypto community into one group that thinks that this is a just a transfer of tokens, whereas, on the other hand, the other group raises red flag around the issue.
