Gemini Giving Away Free XRP! Details Enclosed
• August 12, 2023 1:43 pm • CommentsThe Gemini exchange has officially announced an XRP faucet!
A ‘faucet’ is a way of distributing free cryptocurrency to boost adoption or achieve some promotional objective and serves as an alternative model to the traditional airdrop.
Users must have a verified Gemini account, as well as fulfill and adhere to certain criteria which we will list below.
ProCoin News recently reported that Gemini listed XRP for the first time. Here’s more on the promotion and how you can qualify:

Tyler Winklevoss, co-founder of the Gemini exchange, recently posted this statement to the X social media platform:
“XRP is now available on Gemini. It’s important to note how we got here. Instead of creating clear rules for crypto, the SEC has resorted to suing everyone. It lost its case against Ripple and a judge provided clarity when Gary Gensler wouldn’t. America deserves better.”

In a related report, CoinDesk, and scores of crypto investors, pointed out a ‘glitch’ that occurred on the Gemini platform on Friday:
“XRP to the moon? Well … yes, but only for a few minutes. The token surged to $50 on Gemini on Friday, due to low liquidity, before quickly coming back down to regular market price.”

Just to be clear, #XRP did not "glitch" to $50 on Gemini. There was no liquidity (still is very little) and someone bought an entire 0.60 of XRP for $50 per coin. It is back to fair market value of $0.63.
Congrats to whoever got to sell that 0.60 XRP at $50!! pic.twitter.com/9bebTNztqC

Crypto Globe considered the motivation behind the Gemini XRP faucet:
This move by Gemini to launch an XRP Faucet is seen as a strategic effort to engage its user base and attract new customers.
With the crypto market’s dynamic nature, such promotions can play a pivotal role in bolstering an exchange’s position and fostering user loyalty.
It comes just one day after Gemini listed XRP.
