According to coinmarketcap.com, there are two top coins today.

In the top 100, leading the pack and standing out for their double-digit gains are Tezos and DigixDAO.

In 24 hours, both coins have increased almost 17%. So what’s going on with these two?

Top Coins: Tezos and DigixDAO

This morning, Tezos began listing on European exchange Kraken. The news has seen the coin increase nearly 17% in the 24-hour period.

That is some gain.

The 18th largest coin by market cap, Tezos (XTZ), began trading at 11:00 ET.

To allay any user confusion, XTZ is available on the old and new Kraken platforms.

The Positives of Listing on Kraken

There are some very big positives to come from listing on Kraken. Firstly, Kraken is a fully legalized exchange that adheres to the recently updated European financial regulations. Now that Tezos lists here, the coin will, by association, be considered a more reliable asset.

Kraken is also the oldest exchange, with a modest trading volume and a loyal and established trader base.
