Commenting on the news, Seed CX co-founder and CEO Edward Woodford said: “We are excited to introduce three of the major stablecoins as tradable pairs on our secure and regulated trading platforms. We are also pleased that the stablecoins can be used as collateral for margin trading. Stablecoins are important in the ecosystem as they increase the velocity of movement of fiat equivalent assets 24/7 and had been requested by a number of our trading participants.”

Tory Reiss, the co-founder of TrustToken, added: “Giving institutions that can only trade on a regulated digital assets exchange access to TrueUSD will further allow for the adoption of our first, fiat-backed stablecoin. We are excited to see Seed CX support TrueUSD, and look forward to collaborating with them over the coming months and years."
