f you saw our US dollar (USD) trading announcement a few weeks ago, you know we’re using a phased approach for adding markets and customers. This approach is designed to ensure our processes and systems are operating optimally before we open it up to all customers. And, it’s time to roll out the next phase. We’re starting to invite small groups of retail customers to participate in the USD markets, as their trading will help us further evaluate and test everything.
We’re going to continue implementing these phases until all qualified customers are included, and we’re making good progress. For example, at launch, we started with only corporate customers, and only two weeks later, we’re beginning to methodically add batches of retail customers. During these initial phases, we’re inviting participants who reside in Washington State, California, New York and Montana as well as qualified international regions. Don’t worry, as we roll out future phases, more states will be added. So, please continue to be patient as we roll out these phases overtime. Also, if you’re reading this and you aren’t a Bittrex customer yet, you should sign-up now to have the opportunity to be included in USD trading in the future.
