Today Delta Exchange is 10 months old. Today is also Bitcoin’s 10th Birthday. And, this makes it a great day to unveil our confident new look! …

We launched Delta in August with a single BTC-USD Futures contract listed on the exchange. Since then we have made significant strides — we listed Futures on ETH, XRP and XLM, launched our referral program and started to offer option to hold USDT in Delta wallet. …

XRP has been on a tear lately, first doubling in a 24 hour period on 21–22nd Sep and then settling in the $0.55–60 range.

Being a traders’ first exchange, we acted quickly and worked round the clock to launch XRP Futures, with ample liquidity.

Full contract specs are available here. Happy trading!
