Three good reasons for that strong showing from XCN include multiple exchange listings, launching on BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and many notable partnerships, together with a lengthy-standing collaboration using the Stellar Foundation.

Exchange listings power up the amount

In March 2022, Chain deployed a brand new smart agreement for its token and rebranded from CHN to XCN. Following a rebrand, XCN listed at KuCoin and subsequent listings on Huobi, Gate, Bitrue and Hotbit were supported by sharp upticks in buying and selling volume.

Some of the supporting exchanges also have launched perpetual contracts for that XCN token including Gate, Huobi, ByBit and Poloniex, that has helped generate an elevated awareness for that project and initially brought to some spike in buying and selling volume.

XCN can also be a part of a mix-chain integration with BNB Smart Chain which enables for affordable token transfers and buying and selling on PancakeSwap where holders can earn yield for supplying liquidity towards the exchange.

Following a integration using the BSC, the cost of XCN rallied from $.0712 on May 11 to $.14 within the in a few days.

Notable partnerships

In 2018, the work was acquired and grew to become area of the commercial arm from the Stellar Foundation referred to as Interstellar. Chain was reacquired in 2020 included in a ledger-as-a-service platform known as Sequence.

It is possible the current developments using the Stellar protocol, including its partnership with MoneyGram to produce a stablecoin-based platform for the money transfers, might have results around the cost of XCN because of their partners.

In April 2022, Chain also announced a proper partnership with Alameda Research which established the non-public equity and quantitative cryptocurrency buying and selling firm as Chain’s primary market maker. While none of those partnerships appear significant enough to describe XCN’s current gains, it’s notable the altcoin’s cost action has diverged in the wider crypto marketplace for nearly a whole month.
