Because of a technical error, a trading pair of Ripple tokens (XRP/BTC, XRP/USD, XRP/GBP, and XRP/EUR) started to show on the Coinbase Pro trading app.
Many people started to talk about this relisting of XRP on Coinbase, but after some time, the Coinbase team informed their users and responded against the XRP relist rumours. And said that it was a technical error of Coinbase.
And also claimed that trading pairs were viewable, not tradable.
Due to this negative news, the price of the XRP token crashed by 10%.
Well right now, we have to wait for the end of the case because under the order of the SEC, XRP is an unregistered token and Coinbase can’t allow their users to deposit, withdraw or trade facility for XRP token.
