Poloniex, the Circle-owned cryptocurrency exchange, announced it has listed privacy coin Grin for trading, becoming the first major exchange to do so. Grin deposits are currently live on Poloniex; the exchange will enable withdrawal features in the coming weeks. Additionally, Poloniex is also pledging between 25% to 50% of all Grin transaction fees to the Grin General Fund, Grin's development fund. According to Poloniex, because Grin's transactions operate in a "different manner relative to other cryptoassets," it "has taken measures to develop the most user-friendly and secure solution for storing and trading Grin available on the market today."
