Lykke to list BitShares BTS on the Lykke Exchange
Zurich, Switzerland | February 2, 2018— Lykke, a Swiss Fintech company building a regulated, blockchain-based global marketplace, and BitShares, a pioneer in decentralized financial exchange technology, have announced plans to implement the BitShares blockchain on the Lykke platform and make the BitShares core asset, the BTS token, available for trade on the Lykke Exchange.
Following the implementation, investors will be able to buy and sell BTS on the Lykke Exchange, alongside other currencies, crypto and fiat. This listing means a significant expansion for BTS. Lykke UK Exchange considers to offer a number of pairs, such as BTS-BTC, BTS-EUR and BTS-USD.
“We are delighted to be partnering with BitShares Blockchain Foundation”, said Richard Olsen, Lykke founder and CEO. “Innovative ideas for a fast, decentralized, scalable exchange that actively promotes price-stable conditions will undoubtedly shape the future of our industry.”
To clarify on the term partnership: Lykke has asked the BBF to provide factually correct details about BTS as a utility token for their legal council to approve a listing. Being elected spokesperson, the BBF provides these information and assisted their lawyers to come to a positive conclusion.
Fabian Schuh, CTO, and Annemieke Dirkes, CEO at BlockchainProjects BV and the official spokesperson for the BitShares Blockchain Foundation, are looking forward to bring the collaboration with Lykke to a success. “A great opportunity for BTS holders! The collaboration with the entire Lykke team is off to a great start, and we all look forward to the listing,” said Dirkes.

Something probably worth mentioning is that lykke wallet app for android has rating 3.6/5 with many complaining about tranfer times and bad support in general.
Edit:
it seems most complains came when ETH network was at a backlog state... So it explains why they got so many complains without their fault... They could probably communicate it more effectively to avoid complains.
It is true
very true
I am invested in #appc, but I don't think the new Lykke listing will have any effect on the price
the volume on that exchange is only $1.72 million compared to Binance with $3.39 billion. That's almost 2 thousand times less.
We need more significant exchanges people.
It's significant though that they give the option to buy BTS with FIAT....
Yeah people are forgetting that fiat pair exchanges and Tether exchanges are like comparing fresh oranges to rotten apples.
The BTS/EUR BTS/USD BTS/CNY is super relevant for on and off ramping and for tradingbots. Also keep in mind that a pair BTC/bitUSD BTC/bitEUR BTC/bitCNY not exist on any exchange. So there comes an alternative for Tehter. I also think that Lykke tries to get the customers from Bittrex (delisting BTS) and Poloniex (disabling issues of withdrawals). Smart move in my opinion. My friend text me that het opened an account on Lykke.
I like those pairs:
More controlled exchanges with FIAT options, more new money in.
Lykke is on my list to check out! 🙌
Please vote me, I like a turtle that has not yet had the power in the steemit community.
Nice Post sir.It is a very good point , Something probably worth mentioning is that lykke wallet app for android has rating 3.6/5 with many complaining about tranfer times and bad support in general.

Is the self-signed SSL cert on above linked https://bitshares.foundation/ intentional or an oversight?
bitshares.foundation is hosted on github.org (through its open source jekyll-based web page).
However, github does not support custom-domain SSL, so the bitshares.foundation is explicitly not available through HTTPS. This is a consequence of having everything open source while still wanting to stick to an actual domain.
Yess you're right Mr @chainsquad .Now Im follow you!!!
Thanks! We adjusted it
Very nice post
Excelente amigo mucho éxito, esperemos que las criptomonedas pronto se recuperen y estas noticias contribuyen a que así sea, muchas gracias.
good info. thanks for sharing.
This is great news, a new on ramp for buying bitshares directly with fiat.
The on ramp is very important. But also listing of Smartcoins (bitUSD bitCNY bitEUR) is very desirable. Maybe a BTC/bitUSD pair is coming, so people can avoid Tether.
wow...nice post. thanks for share Lykke will Enable On-/Off-Ramping BTS. SmartCoins are Considered post. i like it
That's a great step forward for the evolution of BTS. Our favorite coin is expanding and that's reality not just wishful thinking at this point ;)
