With the success of RadFi2022 and the Radix Babylon mainnet upgrade drawing closer, we are seeing an increasing number of platforms supporting XRD and eXRD. This is great news as it provides more options for token holders who want to get ready to use the rapidly growing Radix Ecosystem or to help secure the Radix Network via staking.
Radix Tokens (Jersey) Limited is excited to announce HitBTC as the latest marketplace to list XRD. This follows last week’s announcement of the Buy XRD website widget enabling token holders to easily get XRD into their Radix Wallets using card or bank transfers via Switchere.
HitBTC and Switchere are just the two most recent platforms to support XRD and eXRD. Below, you can find a full list of platforms XRD and eXRD are available on.

As XRD and eXRD are now supported on multiple platforms, which each have their own features and benefits, token holders now have more choice than ever before on how they can begin using and securing the Radix Public Network.
What’s next?
2023 is shaping up to be an exciting year for the Radix Network and Ecosystem, with the launch of the Babylon mainnet upgrade marking a significant milestone in the project’s ten year roadmap.
With more than 130 projects and 750+ tokens already launched/announced in the Radix ecosystem, and initiatives like the Radix Grants program helping to drive innovation on the Radix Network, this growing list of platforms supporting XRD enables Radvocates to get involved in the community, stake to secure the network, use cDEXes, participate in prediction markets, or acquire their favorite NFTs.
As ever, thank you to the community for the continued support of the Radix mission of unlocking a radically better financial future with DeFi.
