Yahoo Crypto Trading Exclusive on IOS app
Crypto investors will be able to buy and sell only on the IOS app at the moment – Yahoo‘s PR representative Caitlin O‘ Neill explained. She added that the Desktop, Android, and mobile web options are currently under development and will be ready in the upcoming weeks.
During the press release of the new cryptocurrency trading, Yahoo Finance did not specify that the Desktop feature was available for a short period of time.
Users who want to take part in and trade on the platform can do it via a third-party broker. TradeIt is an official partner of Yahoo and by linking their account to the platform, users can exchange a variety of cryptocurrencies. First on the IOS app and later on Desktop and Android.
In the meanwhile, that did not help Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum to resist a price change suffering. In the last 24 hours, BTC went down by 1,76 percent. Even though the cryptocurrency is still close to the $7,000 mark, it is now trading at $6,918. The monthly losses are estimated at 15 percent.
Ethereum is down by 3.21 percent in the past 24 hours. At the moment, it is trading at $278 and the monthly losses exceed 38 percent.
Litecoin is also affected with a 3 percent loss, currently exchanging at 60$. The total market capitalization of the crypto is close to 3.5 billion dollars and the 24-hour trading volume surpasses 218 million dollars.
Surprisingly, Dogecoin is leading on the cryptocurrency market. It is up by more than 25 percent and has close to 116 billion DOGE in circulation.
