New Markets For Blockchain Silver
In the new listing proposal, Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao explained the potential of LTC trading on the Binance DEX:
"LTC is decentralized money, free from censorship and open to all. The Litecoin blockchain is the largest global scrypt based network, operating with 100% uptime since 2011 securing billions of dollars of value"

Changpeng Zhao also highlighted LTC's contribution to blockchain progress, specifically the Lightning Network and Atomic Swaps.
As a new asset, LTC-F07 is mintable, and the total supply will increase with market demand. All of the issued LTC-F07 will be backed 1:1 by a native LTC, in which the accuracy of this connection will be monitored by an initial verified LTC address.
The Binance DEX is a side-project of Binance, the world largest cryptocurrency exchange. It operates on the native Binance Chain, and supports non-custodial peer-to-peer trading of 130+ assets. Some of major cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash), as well as numerous stablecoins, have their "mirrors" on the Binance Chain which are actually tokens of the native Binance BEP2 standard.
