Reddcoin now ranks 22nd in market cap, 13th amongst mineable currencies, worth $2.4 million.

Reddcoin remains one of the most heavily traded Altcoins , with 590 BTC ($350,000) worth traded during the past 24h. Over 90% of this volume take place on Cryptsy. However, its USD-based trading on Cryptsy continues to languish, with only 2.35 BTC ($1370) traded in the same period.

According to its website, Reddcoin is β€œsocial currency that enriches people’s social lives and makes digital currency easy for the general public.” It integrates a digital currency platform with major social media networks.

Community members are hoping that its introduction to multi-pool mining will provide upward pressure on the price.

Expect a short-term bounce, but if the multi-pool fails to inspire buyers, there is little basis for mid-term support above 8 satoshi.
