- Tyler Winklevoss on May 5 took to Twitter to share that BAT was from then available for trading on their platform.
- A user by identity ‘@galgitron’ raised a complaint that the Gemini exchange preferred to list low cap coins but not the third-ranked crypto XRP.
- Tyler Winklevoss had his say that the user by raising this complaint is not helping XRP but injuring it.
The crypto exchange lists some of the top cryptocurrencies but not XRP. Ripple’s XRP is one of the most efficient settlement options for those seeking global accessibility. Besides speedy settlement of the transactions. Also, it has made its way to being the third coin in the market cap leaderboard and is definitely one amongst the liquid coins. But the licensed exchange however lists other top cryptocurrencies including Litecoin, BAT, Ethereum, and Bitcoin.
Gemini is a digital asset exchange that lets users buy, sell, and even store cryptocurrencies. Alongside the provision of the exchanging of these cryptos with each other and for fiat money.
A user raises a complaint against the non-listing of XRP by Gemini
This very truth compelled crypto users and the Twitter community to pour in their fury against the non-listing of the XRP token. And it followed after Tyler Winklevoss, Gemini Ceo announced the listing of BAT, Brave Browser’s native currency on their platform. Tyler Winklevoss on May 5 tweeted that BAT was from then on available for trading on their platform.
Here's to a better Internet. $BAT is now open for trading on @Gemini.

Further highlighting the response of users, one of the users went to the edge of tagging the SEC and Gemini co-founders. A user by identity ‘@galgitron’ raised a complaint that the Gemini exchange preferred to list low cap coins but not the third-ranked crypto XRP. Whereas another user claimed that this move was a sign of market manipulation.
Dear @SEC_Enforcement. The fact that @Gemini crypto exchange (owned by @winklevoss and @tylerwinklevoss) refuses to list the third-ranked crypto $XRP, despite adding many low-cap coins, is not representative of the true crypto market, and amounts to CLEAR market manipulation.

Gemini CEO’s response to the troll
Nonetheless, this did not come to a halt as it invited the Gemini CEO to make a strong comeback to the claim. US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)is a leading regulator owning the responsibility to oversee securities. Tyler Winklevoss had his say that the user by raising this complaint is not helping XRP but injuring it.
The XRP army has really dumb trolls.
By tagging SEC Enforcement you are taking the position that Ripple is a security. SMH🤦♂️https://t.co/Bs6m3QZond

XRP recently has been facing some dilemma as few claim it as a security and seek SEC to oversee it. Gemini Co-founder further in his tweet said the XRP army owns dumb trolls. And that by tagging SEC the user himself is taking a position to call XRP as a security.
