Why Ether? The Next Crypto Frontier
After the electrifying success of daily Bitcoin auctions, Gemini, the renowned cryptocurrency exchange based in New York, is once again stepping into the limelight. This time, they’re putting Ether, the brainchild of the Ethereum blockchain, under the auction hammer. Starting July 28, 2017, Ether traders will have the golden opportunity to participate in these daily auctions.
Following in Bitcoin’s Footsteps
The Winklevoss twins, Cameron and Tyler, behind Gemini, are no strangers to innovation in the crypto world. Their previous foray into Bitcoin auctions has set the stage, and now they’re ready to do it again with Ether. It turns out that if you give a twin an auction, they might just introduce another one!

Price Discovery: The Winklevoss Way
Why is this auction important? The Winklevoss brothers believe in the ethos of price discovery – matching buyers and sellers at the right moment, like a perfect first date, but with fewer awkward silences. The intention is to increase transparency and reduce costs across the board. When buyers and sellers engage in this process, everyone stands to gain.
What’s the Catch? Spoiler Alert: There Isn’t One!
Wondering if you will need a magnifying glass to find hidden fees? Fear not! Cameron Winklevoss assures us that the auction process will provide the benefits of over-the-counter trading minus the headaches and mysterious costs. Talk about a win-win!
How to Participate in the Ether Auction
Participating in the daily Ether auction is as easy as pie (and let’s be real, we all love pie). Interested traders need to simply log in before the auction and choose their market type. Whether you’re looking to buy or sell, the process is designed to be straightforward, with an API and a user-friendly interface to boot.
“We are confident that our Auction will bring you the benefits of over-the-counter (OTC) trading without the overhead, hassle and lack of transparency.” – Cameron Winklevoss
