Bitcoin.com says they are on the verge of launching their own cryptocurrency exchange.
The CEO of bitcoin.com, Roger Ver, says they will either be purchasing or building their own cryptocurrency exchange in the very near future.
Bitcoin.com currently services both bitcoin and bitcoin cash, while also providing crypto related news items:
According to Ver, he thinks with an exchange added to the site, they will get thousands, possibly even tens of thousands of new users visiting the site every single day.
You may recall hearing the name Roger Ver a lot in the news over the past year or so...

He originally was an early adopter and investor in bitcoin but has since stopped supporting it in favor of bitcoin cash, which according to him is the "true bitcoin".
He has been at the center of the feud between bitcoin and bitcoin cash, in fact one might say he has been one of the biggest agitators of the feud.
It is fine if he thinks one cryptocurrency is better than another, but there is no reason to bash the other ones which is exactly the approach he has taken any chance he gets.
My thoughts have always been that if you actually have the better mouse trap, eventually the rest will take care of itself, no need to sling mud at the others.
Real reason he is creating the exchange...
It's all about bitcoin cash.
Creating a cryptocurrency exchange on bitcoin.com will be a major way that Ver feels he can get people to start adopting bitcoin cash the way that they have bitcoin.
He will price every crypto on the exchange in terms of bitcoin cash, instead of bitcoin, like every other crypto exchange does.
The fact that he continues to operate a website called bitcoin.com, while bashing bitcoin publicly every chance he gets is pretty ridiculous in my opinion, but that is just me.
Either way though, if this helps bring more people into crypto as they search for bitcoin.com in google, I am all for it.
Lets just keep the infighting to a minimum ok Rog?
Can't we all just get along?!
