LAS VEGAS, Nev. – eSpend (http://www.espend.com/), a California financial technology company, has integrated Cryptsy, a Florida crypto-currency exchange, into the Ripple network. eSpend’s Ripple gateway software lets Cryptsy provide its customers with the ability to trade XRP, the Ripple network’s native currency, against Cryptsy’s current 90-plus currencies. In the near future, Cryptsy intends to become a full-fledged Ripple gateway, allowing all currencies to be transferred and traded on the Ripple network.
“We have been wanting to get XRP on Cryptsy for a long time now,” said Paul Vernon, CEO and founder of the Cryptsy exchange. “The team at eSpend has made it easy and we look forward to working with them to bring in more of Ripple’s features.”
