Loopring: The Best Ring Money Can Buy

They say that diamonds are a girl's best friend. Well, we have found the blockchain's best friend and by gosh is it a beautiful ring.

What is Loopring?
Contrary to common perception, Loopring is not just a decentralised exchange, rather it is an open protocol that will allow centralised and decentralised exchanges access to utilise its network in order to establish cross blockchain and exchange transactions.

What makes this ring so special?
Loopring aims to solve common issues we face in this industry and to do so in a manner which promotes sustainability. Have you ever conducted a trade and later found a cheaper price on another exchange? This is one problem that Loopring is tackling. In essence, pursuing an order through the Loopring protocol will ensure that you receive the best possible price at any given time. Let us ask you another question, where were you during the Mt. Gox ordeal? I know that we were most likely sitting in a university lecture not paying attention at the time. On the 19th of June 2011, there was a major security breach of the Mt. Gox Bitcoin exchange that was followed by a price drop. A hacker had used a Mt. Gox official's credentials to access the system and transfer Bitcoins to himself. This is a monumental event regarding exchange hacks and nowadays we have all heard our own little story of an exchange hack. This is a significant battle Loopring aims to fight using its protocol and it ensures that all tokens remain in your own warm and cosy blockchain-based address and always under your control. This is to the extent that:

Members can even transfer their tokens around after orders are submitted.

Which is a point of extreme importance advertised on the front page of the Loopring website. Furthermore, Loopring aims to protect individuals from serious threats such as exchange bankruptcies and DDOS. In conclusion, we can't stress enough the real beauty and significance of implementing such a protocol within exchanges considering our current environment.
