Crypto heated up this month. And we don’t just mean the markets.

ICYMI: Asset Drops, trading competitions, and an improved experience

August was filled to the brim with asset listings. The Blockchain.com Exchange added new coins, including Efinity Token (EFI), SushiSwap (SUSHI), and Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC). The Blockchain.com Wallet listed coins, including USD Coin (USDC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Litecoin (LTC), and BitClout (CLOUT).

Along with these asset drops, we teamed up with popular token teams — Blockstack (STX), Enjin (EFI), SushiSwap (SUSHI), and most recently BitClout (CLOUT) — to launch trading competitions and giveaways with popular tokens. Did you enter to win?

Like the Tokyo Games, the 2020 Crypto Games have concluded and we could not have asked for a better turnout. A few fierce competitors started out hot early on. And while some had their lead overtaken by rivals, others held fast.

Over the past two weeks, the Crypto Games tracked different crypto achievements across the world, celebrating crypto-curious countries.

Nations competed to take home the gold* in categories like:

• Greatest volume of crypto-related Google searches
• Greatest increase number of users (as a % of population)
• Most transactions under $10

So, without further ado, we give you the winners of the 2020 Crypto Games.

Bitcoin adoption as an investment asset began with what is often characterized as “retail” (smaller investors).

Without further ado, we’re pleased to announce our latest Stacks (STX) trading competition. 🏎

Last week, we announced the listing of STX on the Blockchain.com Exchange.

As part of our listing, we’ve partnered with the Stacks Foundation to offer a unique trading competition. For anyone…

The 2020 Crypto Games are underway and a few fierce competitors have made themselves known.
