Awesome news! Bittrex is an announced xRapid partner -- and Texas is the second largest market for international remittances in the U.S (after California, which is also on that list).

Yep. Now we have a rails laid down by Bittrex for the USD to MXN remittance market. Now lets see what comes out of this.

Good for you, I love Bittrex and have been using them since last August.  I need them to add my state!

I forgot what I did, but they will notify you once your state has licensed them. You can also keep checking the link below that they update each time a new state has been added.

Thanks for sharing, @TheXRPer - it looks like the requirement for any US-based exchange to offer fiat support is to register as a money transmitter state-by-state...  It makes sense. 

Even though Bittrex has been around a while, they only recently added fiat support.    All the pieces for xRapid are falling into place!

Where did you get that info from? Curious to see what the other large(r) markets are. Thanks!

The state of Texas has an added level of importance. Catalyst FCU is headquartered in Texas. This will pave the way for them using xRapid in near future.

Excellent information, I did not know this. Thanks.

Blue sky laws are a state by state compliance effort,  but they should be able to get all 50 within a year.

Today I saw a Tweet from Bittrex that they added my state (Texas) to fiat trading, I can now trade USD/XRP directly from Bittrex. I filled out the request form to enable this and it took only a minute.

That said I wanted to remind everyone that Bittrex is a liquidity provider partner for XRP and IMO we should all try to support the ecosystem by using Bittrex if possible. Currently they are up to 34 states and Puerto Rico for Fiat / XRP trading and it looks to me like they plan to operate in all 50 US states eventually.

Already posted this in the correct section yesterday.
