Ripple is preparing to offer a bitcoin exchange for businesses.

Ripple has announced plans to introduce a product called 'Liquidity Hub,' which would allow corporate clients to access cryptocurrencies through worldwide exchanges, market makers, and over-the-counter (OTC) platforms.

Liquidity Hub will initially handle Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum Cash, and XRP, according to a blog post published on November 9 by Ripple. In addition to ambitions to introduce new digital currencies, Ripple Liquidity Hub wants to incorporate staking and yield generation features.

The Liquidity Hub, according to Ripple, intends to speed the migration to cryptocurrencies by providing a platform that allows for the efficient acquisition of digital currencies. The Ripple Liquidity Hub will also use smart order routing to discover the best pricing for digital assets. The technique is now being used by Ripple's On-Demand Liquidity platform. The Liquidity Hub, according to Ripple, would alleviate some of the difficulties that corporate customers have in obtaining cryptocurrency. It uses a simplified API to address issues like lengthy and resource-intensive integrations.

"We understand the need of simple and effective liquidity management. Cryptocurrencies and financial institutions are part of our DNA. As they prepare for a crypto-first world, it's only natural that our clients would want access to the same trusted one-stop shop for purchasing, trading, and keeping crypto assets that has fueled our own extensive work with financial institutions," said Asheesh Birla, Ripple's general manager.

As interest in cryptocurrency continues to grow, Ripple is releasing a new product. Institutional investors, in particular, are driving the current digital asset surge.

Furthermore, the launch of the new product coincides with Ripple's ongoing legal battle with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Ripple is being sued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for allegedly raising over $1.3 billion through an unregistered securities sale. The complaint is being fought by Ripple, who claims that XRP should not be deemed a security.
