Ripple's XRP has been one of the best-performing coins out of top-20 on Tuesday, XRP/USD gained over 11% during the day and tested area above $0.2800 amid the news that BitMEX was about to launch perpetual quanto swaps on XRP/USD.

Meanwhile,TradingView users will be able to trade Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Zcash via the cryptocurrency exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins. It is not the first TradingView integration with a cryptocurrency exchange. In 2018 the company singed an agreement with Poloniex.

Ethereum miners generated $936M in revenue in 2019, which is only about 18.7% of the revenue of Bitcoin miners. That's a big decline from 2018 when ETH miners generated almost 72% that of Bitcoin miners.

Coinbase introduced limitations on withdrawals, a reddit user reports. He complained that the exchange would not allow then to withdraw more than $10 per day. The exchange neither notified the user in advance, nor provided explained the restriction.
